Increased inventory capacity and BOGO capabilities now available
DULUTH, Ga., 2015-10-15 — /EPR Retail News/ — NCR Small Business today announced a significant software upgrade for NCR Silver, its tablet point-of-sale (POS) system.
Version 3.8 of NCR Silver offers small businesses and franchises the opportunity to initiate buy-one-get-one (BOGO) promotions, communicate across locations in real-time and support 50,000 items on the NCR Silver RegisterTM platform.
Additionally, version 3.8 of NCR Silver includes activity snapshot comparisons with more granular data analysis and auto display modifiers that prompt cashiers to ask customers for information related to order preferences.
NCR Silver customer Debbie Bertsch, executive director of the Humane Society Thrift Store of Forsyth County, which donates profits to the local animal shelter just north of Atlanta, is an early adopter of version 3.8’s capabilities. In particular, she finds value in comparing sales data in a more granular way.
“As a nonprofit, we look for ways to control our expenditures in any way we can,” Bertsch said. “NCR Silver’s ability to quickly help us compare sales from the time now to the same time on another day is a powerful feature. This will help us plan our staffing – and potentially even when we open and close – with precise data.”
Product upgrades further NCR Small Business’ strategy to empower small businesses and franchises to improve efficiency in order to keep up with customer demand and compete at the same level as their larger competitors.
“Customer feedback helped our development team better understand the capabilities that would have the most impact among the small business and franchise community,” said Chris Poelma, NCR Small Business president and general manager. “Moving forward, we will plan to continually advance NCR Silver in a way that helps small businesses use technology to improve the customer experience and grow operations.”
