Quickly sending emails directly from the Inspection Details page just got simpler!

Companies on Advanced now have the option to replace the base function of the Share Details email with a full set of customizable templates to use for one-off emails.

With the new Create Email button combined with the new Email Templates function you can now improve your business communications with ease.

❇️ Note: This manual email tool is part of Spectora Advanced. If you're not an Advanced user, you can still send manual emails using the 'Share Details' button on an inspection. Click here to learn more about the Share Details option.
