Working at
PlotBox

Managing a cemetery is like managing real estate. Cemetery owners need to know vital information about thousands of plots of land, such as ‘who’s buried in it?’, ‘who owes me money for it?’, ‘is the structure safe?’ and the biggest problem of all, ‘where is it located exactly?’ Many cemetery managers are currently using pen and paper or limited and out of date software and this is causing mistakes, like burying someone in the wrong place which can cost up to $1Million in law suits not to mention the emotional cost to the bereaved. The solution is PlotBox. It’s an easy to use software solution for cemetery managers, giving them control over all their operations in the one place, using location driven data. PlotBox is a premium product for this underserved market. The platform is multi-sided whereby the deceased records generated by PlotBox are used to populate www.discovereverafter.com where the records are available to the global genealogy market.
