Case Study: Sarasota County Sheriff's Office reduces deputy workload and streamlines evidence management with Omnigo's Digital Evidence Management System

Uses Omnigo to Reduce Workload and Streamline Evidence Management

Sarasota County Sheriff's Office, which supports 650 sworn officers and a 60‑person IT staff, faced an archaic evidence workflow that forced officers to submit help‑desk tickets and relied on an ineffective, Access‑based system. To modernize evidence handling they chose Omnigo’s Digital Evidence Management System (DEMS) for its web‑based, SQL‑driven design, mobile app, custom reporting, reliability, and ability to import legacy data.

Omnigo implemented its paperless, user‑intuitive DEMS so deputies can start property reports from their vehicles, submit evidence directly via the mobile app, quickly upload photos and videos, and maintain chain of custody. The Omnigo solution reduced deputy workload by cutting the time spent filling out reports, streamlined evidence processing, improved visibility and reporting, and eased the transition from the previous system.
