FAQs
What is the main difference between Cloudcon and Dashpivot?
Dashpivot is primarily a flexible digital form builder for capturing safety, quality, and site logs. Cloudcon is a complete operational platform that combines form capture with native heavy fleet management, OEM telematics integration, real-time job costing, and automated union EBA payroll.
Can we export our existing form data out of Dashpivot into Cloudcon?
Yes. Cloudcon's onboarding team can import your existing historical data and rebuild your current Dashpivot form templates into Cloudcon's connected workflow system during implementation.
Does Cloudcon support Australian EBA award rates and award payroll?
Yes. Unlike Dashpivot, which only records hours on a form, Cloudcon features a built-in Award Interpreter that automatically applies complex Australian EBA rules, overtime penalties, and allowances before pushing clean data to payroll.
