How does it work?
Comprehensive data features
In an instant, turn a Zebra mobile computer into
a mobile-driven workstation — and back to a
mobile computer. Workers simply insert and
remove the Zebra mobile computer into and
out of the appropriate cradle that is attached to
the peripherals required to create the perfect
workstation environment for your users. For
example, connect to a large monitor to enable
the easy-to-read display of information-intensive
applications through a modified user interface
that simplifies app interaction. Enable different
modes of data entry — touch or a keyboard
and mouse. Add audio capabilities to support
multimedia content and better workforce
collaboration with a speaker and headphones.
A printer enables easy printing of needed
documents for workers or customers, such as
an order or a proposal, a plan design and more.
A handheld scanner is ideal when workflows
include the capture of a larger volume of
barcodes, either on screen, printed on labels
or printed in a catalog or on an inventory sheet.
And more.
Comprehensive voice features
A workstation environment wouldn’t be complete
without the ability to make calls. Since all of the
features in Zebra mobile computers are supported
when devices are in Workstation Connect
mode, any Zebra Workforce Connect solutions
running on the Zebra mobile computers are also
available. Just connect a headset to the cradle
or via Bluetooth, and utilize the mobile computer
to place push-to-talk calls through Workforce
Connect PTT Pro, as well as PBX calls through
Workforce Connect Voice. The result? Workers
can easily reach the right person to complete the
task at hand — co-workers, managers, experts
and customers — regardless of whether they are
inside or outside the facility.

Employee training
Employee training videos and self-paced training courses are much more
effective on a large screen. Workers can simply dock their mobile computers to
use Workstation Connect to participate in training courses. Headphone support
ensures customers and co-workers who may be in the vicinity are not disturbed.
Assisted Selling
More complex sales often require customization or professional services. With
Workstation Connect, an associate can dock their mobile computer to use a large
screen to provide further assistance to the customer during the sales process. The
list of materials for the bid can be created easily by scanning onscreen barcodes
or accessing a catalog to locate part numbers and prices.
Store Manager
The retail store manager traditionally utilizes two devices: a mobile computer out on
the sales floor, and a workstation or laptop in the backroom. But with Workstation
Connect, store managers can do it all with their Zebra mobile computer. Inventory,
pricing and point of sale line of business applications, as well as office applications,
can now be accessed on a large screen via the mobile computer. And while store
managers have one less device to use, there is no loss in functionality.
Concierge Services
Associates in hotels can use the same mobile device to quickly check-in guests,
scan luggage tags, communicate with co-workers and easily switch to a full
desktop screen to better assist guests with area restaurants and activity
recommendations, elevating the level of service and the guest experience.
