For many Kenyan businesses, the office is just one location. Your sales reps are in Kisumu, your delivery drivers are on the Mombasa highway, your field agents are in Nakuru markets and your employees are clocking in from a Thika factory floor. A cloud ERP that can only be accessed from a desktop computer does not serve these field teams.

BetaSuite was built from the ground up to support mobile-first operations. The BetaGO suite of 6 Android apps extends every major ERP function to the field — with offline capability for areas with poor connectivity. This guide explains what each app does and which roles benefit most.

The 6 BetaGO Mobile Apps

1. RetailGO — For Retail and Van Sales

RetailGO turns any Android phone or tablet into a mobile point of sale. Sales reps at market stalls, exhibitions or van sales routes can take orders, check stock, process M-Pesa payments and issue KRA eTIMS receipts — all from their phone. Orders sync instantly to the head office ERP.

Best for: Van sales reps, market stall operators, pop-up retail, field order-taking

2. TouchGO — For Restaurant and Hospitality

TouchGO is a waiter and cashier app for restaurants, hotels and cafes. Waiters take table orders on their tablet, orders print instantly at the kitchen station, and the cashier processes payment (M-Pesa, cash or card) from the same device. The app works offline during connectivity outages and syncs when the network returns.

Best for: Restaurant floor staff, hotel F&B, coffee shops, fast food outlets

3. DeliveryGO — For Delivery and Dispatch

DeliveryGO gives delivery drivers their daily route sheet on their phone, with navigation to each delivery point, digital proof of delivery (customer signature + GPS), cash and M-Pesa collection recording and return goods capture. Confirmed deliveries trigger automatic invoicing at head office.

Best for: Delivery drivers, dispatch operations, last-mile distribution

4. StaffGO — For Employee Self-Service

StaffGO is the employee mobile app for HR self-service. Employees clock in and out with GPS verification and optional selfie, apply for leave, view their leave balance, check their roster and download payslips — all without calling HR. For businesses with GPS geofencing, StaffGO verifies that the employee is physically at their branch when they clock in.

Best for: All employees, particularly those who are field-based or multi-site

5. MarketGO — For Field Sales and CRM

MarketGO is the field sales CRM app. Sales reps manage their customer visits, record interactions, view pipeline status, capture leads and track their targets — all from their phone. Managers see rep activity and pipeline in real time from the web dashboard.

Best for: Field sales representatives, account managers, territory managers

6. VanGO — For Van Inventory and Sales

VanGO manages van stock for businesses that load products onto a vehicle and sell directly from the van (think FMCG distributors or bread/beverage routes). The driver loads their van in the morning, records every sale during the route and reconciles remaining stock against expected van inventory at the end of the day.

Best for: FMCG van routes, bread and beverage distributors, door-to-door sales

Offline Capability — Critical for Kenya's Connectivity Reality

All BetaGO apps are designed to work in low-connectivity environments. Transactions are stored locally on the device and synced to the cloud ERP the moment connectivity is restored. For businesses operating in areas with intermittent 4G coverage, this offline capability is not a nice-to-have — it is essential.

Security and Access Control

Each BetaGO app uses the same role-based permissions as the web ERP. A delivery driver using DeliveryGO sees only their own delivery list — not the financials or HR records. A sales rep using MarketGO sees their own customers and pipeline — not those of other reps. All app access can be revoked immediately from the admin panel if an employee leaves.

Getting Started with BetaGO

BetaGO apps are available on the Google Play Store. Deployment involves:

  1. Downloading the relevant app on the employee's Android device
  2. Configuring the employee's role and permissions in BetaSuite admin
  3. Running a 30-minute training session per app
  4. Going live — the app connects automatically to the company's cloud ERP

Most businesses deploy BetaGO apps to their field teams within one to two days. Book a free mobile ERP demo at betasuiteapp.com/get-quote and see all 6 apps in action.
