ForeFlight Manage Geared To Individual Pilots And Corporate Flight Departments

An online portal for individual and business aviation customers has been rolled out by ForeFlight that provides access to account information and ForeFlight Mobile pilot and device management tools. Called 'ForeFlight Manage', it is available now to ForeFlight Mobile customers.

"Our customer base has grown rapidly over the past year”, said Tyson Weihs, co-founder of ForeFlight. “In addition to the many individual pilots we support every day, ForeFlight also serves many Fortune 500 corporate flight departments, fractional operators, charter operators, and government customers ranging from the FBI to the FAA. As our customers base grows, we have many opportunities to observe large iPad deployments, and as a result developed a deep understanding for the tools customers require to successfully manage their devices. ForeFlight Manage delivers a set of management tools and an online platform to customers that simplifies ForeFlight account and deployment management.”

From within ForeFlight Manage, both individual and business aviation customers can review past purchases and invoices, one-click upgrade or downgrade to add or remove account features, add and remove pilots to their account, and manage iOS devices. ForeFlight Manage eliminates software license key management, allowing customer deployment managers and pilots to access ForeFlight services using their email address and password.

ForeFlight Manage uses an email invitation workflow to provision new pilots, simplifying the process with which new pilots are granted access to ForeFlight Mobile. Pilots are added or removed from ForeFlight Manage by flight department managers at any time. Flight department managers can view iOS devices in use, remotely deactivate subscriptions on devices that no longer need access, and easily upgrade subscription services.

The adoption of iPads in flight operations requires tools that make daily flight department operations more efficient, and ForeFlight Manage is designed to meet this need.
