whitepaper Business Management Solution Provider Supports Attended & Unattended Systems With Remote Desktop Support Appliance2008-08-28 Bomgar
  In order to ensure that owners have the latest security measures implemented at POS terminals and that hardware/software systems are functioning properly, Innovative Control Systems (ICS) must be able to access sites across the U.S quickly and easily. A number of remote access solutions were used to try and meet this challenge, including LogMeIn, Citrix Online's GoToAssist, and pcAnywhere. But these solutions either did not provide the needed capabilities, and/or required ICS to pay excessive monthly fees to use the solution. Off late, ICS found the solution they were looking for in the Bomgar Box, an appliance that has enabled them to virtualize their support reps and troubleshoot support incidents without having to travel on-site.

whitepaper Expanding Gift Shop Needs Automation for Fast Sales, Stocktaking, Reports, and Graphs2008-08-01 Microsoft
  Planning their fourth location, Diane and Roy Reinsch realized that Belle Provence could no longer rely on vague category totals from the electronic cash register. Without knowing exact sales by item, they bought by intuition more than analysis, and had no way to know which customers preferred which of the store's 5,000 gifts and decorations. Roy thoroughly examined and tested many retail system offerings. He found that a two-register Microsoft Point of Sale system would deliver the smoothest customer transactions, clearest inventory reports, and fastest purchasing. Today, reports pinpoint exactly which SKUs moved in what quantities. This data enables exact reordering, so purchasing is science, not guesswork.
