It has become increasingly popular for stores and mobile employees to now use smartphones and/or tablets as an efficient method of completing consumer transactions. This trend is of no surprise based on the estimated number of shipments for tablets and mobile phones in 2013 at just over 2 million! However, with so many smartphone and…
The use of RFID has been substantially beneficial in a wide range of applications. From inventory tracking to logistics, RFID allows for faster tracking on assets while saving money at the same time. For those who haven’t incorporated RFID technology into their daily operations, I would strongly suggest it. Rather than scanning barcodes, RFID technology…
Manual process presents challenges in areas of organization and real-time visibility. Improving your inventory management through the use of mobile computing will reduce errors by improving accuracy, saving time for better resource allocation and give you the visibility you need.

Wikipedia defines choreography as “The art of designing sequences of movements in which motion, form, or both are specified.” Imagine choreographing a ballet in which the performers are wearing blinders, unable to see their partners until each moves within their narrow fields of view. They have no advance peripheral clues that help them anticipate and…
In previous blogs we talked about the transition from a manual ticket-writing process to an automated (e-citation) process and the huge time and money savings that occurs when this task is automated.

With the busiest shopping days of the year heading this way, retailers want to make sure it’s smooth sailing for consumers. For many, that means integrating a mobile device for POS.

I spent way too much of last weekend cleaning unmentionable crud out of my Smartphone. No, I didn’t drop it in the toilet. In that case, I’d know whom to blame – me – and the lesson would have been clear: Don’t take your Smartphone into the bathroom! Instead, hidden away in its internal storage,…
Small. Light. Portable. Simple. These words have quickly become part of our vocabulary in an age of “can’t wait” “what’s next” and “I want it now”. For some, it’s just for convenience. For others, it’s a whole new world of efficiency when a new product comes along that seems leaps and bounds above the rest. …
I’d been a loyal user of Microsoft Office (Word specifically) for years, but somewhere between one iteration and another I hit the “why-can’t-they-leave-good-enough-alone?” wall.
