Organizations are now aiming towards investing in omni channels to improve the customer satisfaction level. “However, with the steep prices for retail POS and ERP offerings, SMBs are unable to access these tools to gain a positive ROI,” begins Vanjo Wandscher, CEO, Futura Retail Solutions. In addition, CIOs also face many hurdles in managing unified retail platform which is a complex affair that can make or break a company. Futura Retail aims to counter this stigma by providing cost-effective solutions designed to tackle the complexities experienced. “Futura4Retail serves all areas of a company and avoids losses from markdowns and increases margins,” says Wandscher.
