ServiceID makes faults reportable right where they happen: a scan at the device, a structured form, a report to the right place. Around the clock — no app, no login, no hotline hold queue. For everyone who operates equipment, buildings or locations and wants to take load off their hotline.
The problem
The coffee machine is on strike, the elevator is stuck, the dispenser is empty. Surprisingly little of this gets reported — and what does arrive is often useless: "Doesn't work", no device, no location, in the wrong inbox. The hotline is busy, responsibility is unclear, so people let it go.
Every unreported fault runs on: downtime, follow-on damage, frustrated users, expensive follow-up questions. ServiceID lowers the reporting hurdle to a single scan — and delivers your service team complete, structured reports instead of guesswork.
The comparison
Why most faults go unreported is no mystery — it's the path you expect the reporter to take.
Via the hotline
Minutes — if at all
Only what can't be avoided any longer gets reported. The rest runs on.
With ServiceID
Under a minute
Complete, clearly assigned, documented with a timestamp.
The reporter needs neither an app nor an account — that's exactly why they report at all.
How it works
No IT project, no training — ServiceID is infrastructure you stick on and screw down.
Step 01
Every tag knows its device and its location. What can be reported you define per location — from a fault to a refill.
Step 02
Whoever notices something scans with the ordinary camera, picks the topic, optionally writes two sentences or attaches a photo. No app, no sign-up.
Step 03
The report reaches the responsible channel — clearly assigned, documented and without a hotline queue. You define recipients per tag.
Rollout without an IT project: attach tags, configure topics, done.
Every report contains: device · location · topic · photo
What the user sees
Whoever scans a ServiceID gets exactly the topics you've defined — device and location are already captured. Three seconds later the report is on its way.
No hold queue, no catch-all inbox, no "please describe the device": every report lands structured at the responsible team.
Securely connected What's the matter?
Pick a topic — device and location are already captured.

Places of use
Topics, fields and recipients are configured per location — one system, any number of applications.
01 Facility
Elevators, doors, lighting, heating: defects get reported where they're noticed — not just at the next walk-through.
02 Vending
Coffee, snack and production machines report faults with a device ID — your technician arrives prepared instead of guessing.
03 Hygiene
Soiling and missing refills get reported discreetly by scan — without anyone chasing the hotline by phone.
04 Fleet
Document damage and irregularities right at handover — with photo, timestamp and clear vehicle assignment.
05 Branches
One uniform reporting path for all locations instead of paper notes and phone chains — evaluated centrally.
06 Public
Playgrounds, bus stops, lighting: tips from the public arrive structured — around the clock.
The rollout
ServiceID isn't a software project but infrastructure: once topics and recipients are set, we produce your tags — weatherproof, clearly assigned to the device, ready to attach.
No interface workshops, no training sessions, no change communication: whoever can operate a smartphone can report. Your rollout is done in an afternoon.
An honest comparison
ServiceID replaces neither your hotline nor your sensors nor your ticket system. It catches the reports that are lost today — the full comparisons are linked.
01 Status quo
Unbeatable when people urgently need help. But for a routine fault at the device it's a hurdle — and every report ties up staff on the phone.
The full comparison
02 App solution
Only works if everyone has installed it. Visitors, tenants and passers-by never have it — exactly the people standing in front of the device.
03 IoT
Strong for machine data — but a sensor sees no soiling, no vandalism, no missing refill. ServiceID turns the person standing there into the reporter.
The full comparison
04 Software
Manages cases cleanly — but the way in from the device is missing. ServiceID is the reporting layer in front of it and gives your system complete, clearly assigned intake.

Connection
ServiceID delivers every report structured by email — with device, location and photo. Practically any ticket, task or inbox system turns it into a case automatically. No interface project, no middleware.
The brands named here only indicate compatibility and belong to their respective owners. Basic rule: whatever an email inbox can read, ServiceID can feed — via webhook & API if you like.
The key facts
Our answers
No. The ordinary smartphone camera is enough — the scan opens a web page with your topics. That's exactly why the system also works with visitors, tenants or passers-by you could never train.
Every ServiceID is clearly assigned to a device and location. So the report never arrives as "something's stuck somewhere", but as "coffee machine K-12, 3rd floor west, fault, photo attached".
As a rule yes, without a project: reports are delivered to any inbox — and any ticket system with mail intake (practically all of them) turns it into a case automatically. Your processes behind it stay untouched.
Structure protects: whoever reports picks from your topics instead of writing freely, and every report is clearly assigned to a device. Should a tag become conspicuous, it can be blocked and replaced — without touching the others.
Yes — topics, required fields and recipients are defined per location. The elevator reports different things than the sanitary room, and both land with the respective responsible team.
It's not an IT project: once topics and recipients are set, we produce your tags — attach, done. Your existing processes stay untouched.
From €0.50 per device and month, plus a one-time setup fee based on scope — no contract lock-in, with volume pricing by scale. Included in the price: tags, configuration per location, delivery, documentation and reporting statistics. Start with one location and expand only once the reports prove the value.
