Are your stores ready for Back-to-School shopping? NET can help get you ready for the rush!!

Based on the context of back-to-school shopping for big box retailers, here are the top 5 technologies that need to be online and functioning optimally:

1. Point of Sale (POS) Systems

These are crucial for processing transactions quickly and efficiently. They need to be able to handle high volumes of sales, apply discounts, and process various payment methods. They need to be 100% operational during the busy shopping hours.

2. Inventory Management Systems

These systems track stock levels in real-time, ensuring popular back-to-school items remain available. They often integrate with POS systems and can trigger reorder alerts when stock is low.

3. Wi-Fi and Network Infrastructure Robust

Wi-Fi and network capabilities are essential for supporting mobile POS devices, enabling price checks, and ensuring all connected systems can communicate effectively. NET’s 4hr response time ensures these, and all business-critical devices get back online ASAP.

4. Digital Signage and Price Display Systems

These help in showcasing promotions, updating prices quickly across the store, and guiding customers to popular back-to-school items. Click HERE to read our latest rollout of price verifiers for the world’s largest retailer.
