Streamline to Success: The Real Mid-Market Experience: Retail 2006-10-06 10:48:36 IBM

Next generation "super shoppers" have become empowered by their ability to access data online. This ability translates into an extremely knowledgeable consumer base, with specific customer service needs. As customers seek out more productive shopping experiences, retailers will have to tailor to the needs of individual consumers and supply greater convenience, lower prices, and easy-to-use technologies. But technology for technology's sake is not enough. In-store technologies must provide clear benefits....and they do.

Pronto, an Integrated POS Enterprise Management System, Running on the Future-Resilient Sun Microsystems Platform 2006-09-27 01:00:21 Sun Microsystems

With approximately 14 million transactions taking place every year and this figure likely to grow, Jessops were experiencing problems with protecting the integrity of their data as it passed from one bespoke system to another.

They soon established that the choice was limited with the majority of solutions recommended consisting of a number of best of breed solutions which would again require integration. An alternative to this approach is PRONTO, a fully integrated back office to point of sale Enterprise Management System from Productivity Computer Solutions (PCS).
