We are committed to ongoing development to ensure that our app aligns with the evolving requirements and standards of the hydraulics industry, worth a roadmap of exciting features in the pipeline for 2024 and onwards.

What our customers say about the BOAhub 

Rob, RC Fithall 

Instead of using pen and paper with oily hands and stuff like that. We just scan the barcode on there and and use what we have and then yeah tell us what we've used and what to order next. The boys love it and we can write names and job cards to the app as well, on that side of it. So beforehand obviously we were just writing a little note, just tearing the papers out sticking it on a needle in the office for the next week, where he would just pull it off the needle and send a bill out. 

Adam Fraser, TCM Quarries 

We are able to restock quickly. We'll just scan for a fitting, or we just type in the part number that's on the fitting in the app and add it to the cart and away it goes, it's done 

Terry, TG Hydraulics 

BOA has made it easy and simple to get set up, such as the barcode system, the app - everything is working in our favour. It has been fantastic. 

Robbie, Burson Logging 

I use the app (the BOAhub) to reorder, it's pretty good and makes it pretty easy. You just scan a barcode and you're done.
