Retail-IT – Making The Most of Advanced Technology
Retail-IT is a state-of-the-art system designed for high reliability and continuous performance. With Qualicom’s in-depth experience in the retail industry and advanced IT consulting experience, we have produced an expertly designed, world-class retail management system. During normal online operation, store operations and sales data is continually and seamlessly synchronized with the central office database in real-time. During network down-time or outages, the POS system runs independently within each store and can continue to operate, meaning you’re still doing business and making sales.
Architecture – Highly Intelligent
Retail-IT is truly a scalable, adaptable, and reliable system. Retail-IT is designed to grow as you grow your business; it’s designed to adapt and fit into your IT ecosystem; and its designed to keep running even when your network or your internet service goes down.
Retail-IT is designed to grow seamlessly and effortlessly with your business. If you require more terminals and / or more stores, you just simply add them in to the network—there’s no special set-up or unnecessary customization required. Retail-IT is designed to leverage the most commonly used server and network topologies, and harnesses the power and flexibility of the internet and web-services based technologies such as JBOSS, Websphere and WebMethods. Regardless of your server and network environment or whether you or Qualicom host the server, we will make it work for your organization. And, Retail-IT is designed to operate all the time—it can run in both online and offline modes, meaning that when the network goes down, Retail-IT stays up and running.
Design – Highly Configurable
Retail-IT will make you feel like you bought a solution perfectly tailored to your needs. Retail-IT can be configured to reflect your environment, business processes, and user roles—giving you the right balance of operating flexibility and control. And, as time goes on and your needs change, Retail-IT can be easily adjusted to your new way of doing things.
With Retail-IT you can easily set up, control, and modify employee access, permissions, and authorities. You can also easily set up and manage reporting structures such as grouping stores into areas and regions. As well, you can assign employees to stores or teams, or both. Retail-IT also gives you flexibility in managing customer loyalty and product pricing. You can create and manage a loyalty program for your customers, offering them reduced pricing, special offers, etc. You can create product bundles that contain both products and services that are offered at attractive prices. You can create multiple types of promotions: product sales, manufacturer sales, sales events, etc. These are just some examples of the power Retail-IT gives you to run your business your way. With Retail-IT, the possibilities are almost endless in how you can manage and improve your business. And all this power is available—and can be changed at any time—with a few mouse clicks and keyboard strokes.
Construction – Fully Modular
Even though we believe Retail-IT is the most powerful, flexible and intelligent retail management system on the market, we know we need to keep on improving and enhancing our solution. And we also recognize that in every business—small, medium or large—you may offer specific services or products, or have unique processes that you wish to follow that cannot possibly be met “out-of-the-box” by any retail solution. That’s why Retail-IT is built in a highly modular and adaptable fashion. You can literally pick and choose which functions you want to utilize, and those which you don’t. And don’t worry about your choices because if and when you change your mind, down the road, we can turn on any feature you desire at any point in time! As well, we can quickly and affordably build new features and functions that meet your specific business needs.
Platform - Open
Retail-IT’s standard operating platforms are designed to take advantage of a wide array of common hardware, open systems, and web-services enabled technologies. Our point of sale system is a .NET based application, and can be used on any PC running Windows XP. Our enterprise server platforms run on a wide variety of server hardware running Linux OS, using a JBOSS application server and mySQL database server. However, we can operate Retail-IT in whatever environment you require, such as using Websphere, etc., application servers; and Oracle, DB2, etc. database servers. As well, we have extensive experience integrating Retail-IT with other key business solutions (such as SAP, billing systems, payment gateways, etc.). We have experts programmers who are highly skilled in many programming technologies, including WebMethods.
Security - Comprehensive
Retail-IT is designed to seamlessly integrate within your security infrastructure (firewalls, etc.) and comes with extensive security controls built in to protect your data and to prevent unwarranted access. All users are assigned unique IDs and passwords (which are encrypted). As well, every user has a specific role profile which controls access to the allowed functions.
All data communications can be encrypted using HTTPS / SSL, and where required, data is encrypted before being stored using TripleDES encryption techniques. Further, credit card numbers are masked at the source to ensure they are never exposed or in the clear. We also have experience in integrating ID / security card systems for providing quick user sign in and access.
Operating Model – Extremely Flexible
Retail-IT takes advantage of the power of the internet and web-based technologies to allow you to determine the right operating approach for your company. Most medium and large firms will want to integrate Retail-IT into their IT ecosystem. If, however, you don’t have the necessary scale and / or IT environment, or you simply don’t want to worry about hosting Retail-IT, we can host the enterprise server application and data for you. We will work with you to find the operating model that works best for you.
IT Investment – Rock Solid
Retail-IT is designed with your retail organization’s needs and business goals in mind. It easily fits into your existing IT ecosystem, and seamlessly integrates with your other systems as required. It can grow and adapt to your business environment without requiring any special changes or customization.
