A new article by retail technology expert and CCH member, eMazzanti Technologies shares how the advantages of POS systems in retail extend far beyond simple sales transactions.
 
The author highlights five important benefits businesses realize with a modern POS system, from improved inventory management to support for data-driven decision making.
 
She then highlights the need for updated retail cyber security and suggests options for protecting important retail technology investments.
 
“POS systems of today do much more than accept payment methods. This comprehensive solution drives efficiency and shapes the customer experience,” emphasized Jennifer Mazzanti, CEO, eMazzanti Technologies.
 
Below are a few excerpts from the article, “5 Advantages of Using a POS System in a Retail Environment.”
 
Improved Inventory Management
 
“The system will deliver alerts when inventory runs low. Further, it can help to automate reordering. For instance, if you set reorder levels in the system, it will automatically generate and send a purchase order when stock levels reached the specified point. This allows you to maintain ideal inventory levels without constantly counting product.”
 
Analytics for Data-driven Decision Making
 
“POS systems offer robust reporting features, providing valuable insights into product performance, sales trends, peak shopping hours, customer habits, and more. This data proves essential in driving decision making around products, pricing, and promotions.”
 
Improved Customer Experience
 
“Additionally, because the systems accept multiple payment options at a single terminal, customers can easily pay using their payment type of choice. And if they need to return or exchange items, the POS system makes that a breeze, as well.”
 
Strengthened Security
 
“Modern POS systems prioritize security with features like secure payment processing and user access controls. This safeguards your business from fraud and data breaches, providing peace of mind and facilitating compliance with regulations such as PCI DSS. In addition, cloud-based POS systems protect against data loss by enabling automated data backups.”
