Legacy Handheld Life Cycle and Support

Since 1987 Forestry Systems has produced software/hardware solutions for the hardwood lumber industry. As with any computer, technology changes and evolves. They become less efficient and finally obsolete. Handheld computers are no different.

Over the years FSI has worked closely with each every account upgrading and/or supporting the legacy systems. Customers following our service contract receive FULL CREDIT on their maintenance costs for that year. We provide the best and most technologically advanced handhelds in the industry, such as the current FSI Hydrus handheld.

Our customers are our business. If you have any questions on any of our legacy systems, please call our office (800.868.2559) and speak with one of our highly trained technicians. We want to make you happy.
