 Challenge
|
| Many hospitality providers and retailers use PC cash registers running Point-of-Sale (POS) software provided by Squirrel, Micros or other manufacturers. While merchants are highly satisfied with these systems, leveraging Internet-based payment processing can help them improve customer service and lower costs. With hundreds of possible system/software variations, any IP solution must be transparent to existing equipment and applications, and require minimal staff training. |
Solution |
| Precidia's POSConnect products, such as the POSLynx220™ with NetVu™, enable restaurateurs, hoteliers and retailers to easily connect existing PC-based POS systems to broadband IP networks. Seamlessly converting dial or serial-based transaction data to IP, single or multiport POSConnect products enable hospitality providers to eliminate dedicated dial lines and modem costs while decreasing transaction times from an average of 12-20 seconds to between 4-6 seconds. |
| Implementation is simple - there are no additional hardware, software or training requirements. Hospitality providers also gain a host of new features, including log and status pages that simplify daily reconciliation and equipment diagnostics. |
