Popeye’s Supplements – A Point Of Sale System Success Story
When Popeye’s Supplements found out that their retail system was being discontinued by the developer, they began a two-year journey to find a replacement solution. After evaluating more than 10 POS systems, Popeye’s Supplements chose MyPOS Connect.
MYPOS CONNECT: Overview of Features
More than a decade ago we saw the potential for a POS system that was seamlessly connected to the Cloud. So we re-engineered our Client-Server POS solution using Microsoft’s .NET development platform, because of its superior ability to leverage Cloud servers without having to write an app that runs from an Internet browser. In 2009 we released our first Cloud-enabled version of MyPOS Connect, and we’ve been developing on that foundation ever since.
What makes MyPOS Connect unique is that, although your corporate database is in the Cloud, the software application resides on each workstation or device, along with a scaled-down local copy of the database. So you get a crisply responsive user experience, just like an on-premise application would give you, but you’re working with real-time data that is securely accessible from anywhere, at any time.
Eliminating Stockouts – An Inventory Planning Primer
With the advent of online sales digging deeper into retailers’ pockets, it is more important than ever for independent retailers to eliminate lost sales that occur as a result of stockouts.
According to a study in May 2018 by retail research organization IHL Group, customers of department stores and specialty retail shops experience a stockout 1 in 4 shopping trips. They estimate that stockouts are costing North American retailers more than $47B a year in sales! And where are these sales going? To Amazon, where else? IHL states that nearly 24% of Amazon’s North American retail revenue can be attributed to consumers who first tried to buy the product at a local store but couldn’t find it on the shelves.

Minimize Salesforce Bugs and Maximize ROI
Salesforce is designed to democratize innovation by empowering users to generate their own customizations through its low-code platform. Without a doubt, Salesforce is an intricate and vital piece of your organization’s digital modernization puzzle, as it’s connected to many of your critical business apps through backend flows.
Salesforce makes its platform as easy to maintain as possible. The company thoroughly tests its three yearly releases, but it’s up to customers to verify that their customizations, integrations, and applications built on the Salesforce platform work as intended.

Everyone is working hybrid these days, so you might think it must be a successful model for any business. But is it?

4 Types of Analytics Solutions & What They Mean for SaaS
You’re constantly making decisions that have long-term effects on your company and your products. One of the biggest decisions facing SaaS companies is how to effectively implement the right type of analytics solution for your products.

What Is Infused Analytics For SaaS Companies?
In the SaaS world today, competition is fierce. Competition isn’t just about acquiring new customers, but also new partners and investors. SaaS founders know they need to stand out from the pack. But how and where do they create the most value and differentiation?
SaaS companies get their start in many ways. Often founders start with an industry or service that is familiar to them where they know a gap exists and then create a new software company to solve that problem. You see this in many verticals such as legal software, restaurant management, and real estate. SaaS companies exist to create solutions specifically for those industries, and their teams often know those industries inside and out.
However, a common thread within SaaS companies that specialize, is that every company’s customers expect their software provider to also be an expert at analytics, and unfortunately that simply is not the case. That’s where Infused Analytics for SaaS Companies comes in.
