Instant communications
In any retail organisation with traditional bricks and mortar store outlets, communication to the stores is often done via faxes.
Changing over to email does not really produce the right results as, due to the high staff turnaround typical of the retail environment, free access to email from a store is not always desirable.
The Intelligent Intranet allows instant messaging to and from the stores without a need for store email.
The built-in support for division/region/store hierarchy allows communication to be targeted to one or more regions, thus making it a useful tool for the regional manager too.
Centralised Store Database
The built-in store database is essential for any organisation with retail outlets.
Customer services can quickly locate the nearest store for a calling-in customer, with accurate information on store opening hours, services available from each store and how to get there.
Information about the stores can be fed to a public web site.
