Powering Retail Market Trends With Advanced POS Platforms

Now, more than ever, retailers are focused on serving their customers. Retailers must run multiple software applications simultaneously at the point-of-service (POS) to collect customer information and build meaningful customer relationships. "Customer-centric retailing" has become the mantra of successful retailers with timely customer insight driving next-generation merchandising. At the same time, the pressures to reduce operating costs and increase employee productivity are relentless.

Advanced POS systems have the capabilities to power tomorrow's customer-centric initiatives, increase associate productivity and reduce total cost of ownership. Next-generation POS systems can play a key role in helping retailers drive increased revenue while providing a powerful platform for store operations.

A leading example of these advanced POS platforms is the NCR RealPOS™ 80XRT with Intel® vPro™ processor technology. Its development facilitates the trend towards customer-centric retailing, and the resulting system provides unprecedented performance, scalability and systems manageability to protect the retailer's investment. NCR's benchmark testing shows that the NCR RealPOS 80XRT delivers remarkable performance gains over previous-generation POS systems for customer-facing point-ofservice and back-office store operation functions.
