Transaction monitoring software for real-time management of POS systems, self-checkouts, kiosks, and e-commerce applications

For CIOs, IT, and Store Operations Teams who need to optimize the performance of critical customer contact points and efficiently manage their operations through:

  • Consistent visibility into the entire, end-to-end customer purchase process, both on-line and in-store
  • Real-time alerting of transaction slowdowns, failures, fraud patterns and reversals that are impacting revenue and end customer experience
  • Quick isolation of network and application performance issues affecting business critical processes such as the purchase cycle

 

The Retail Challenge

Are slow transaction times and failures affecting revenue?

Over 75% of retailers rank customer satisfaction as a primary business objective, driving CIOs to undertake major enterprise and store-level investments aimed at delivering the best customer experience possible. And yet, many IT departments and Store Systems Operators cannot continuously monitor and understand what a customer will experience when they interact with applications such as a POS systems, self-checkouts, e-commerce applications or kiosks.

Do you lack end-to-end visibility into the customer purchase cycle?

Retailers are losing visibility into whether real-time applications are performing with the speed and availability they should be, both online and in-store. All too often, IT issues related to the real-time payments process are being left undetected until they negatively impact the customer purchase experience.

A major expansion of in-store technology and complex IT infrastructures has made it increasingly difficult to tie front-end customer experience issues to back-end IT performance problems in real-time. Existing network and server tools used to monitor physical network devices do not identify issues affecting the customer’s purchase experience, such as transaction slowdowns or failures. Traditional IT toolsets often lack end-to-end network visibility, making it challenging to determine whether an issue experienced by the end customer stems from a client server, application, network or third party host problem.

Are you struggling to maintain a balance of exceptional service delivery and operational efficiency?

Key performance indicators are shifting out of the data center and being redefined with the goal of aligning with broader corporate objectives, such as ensuring a best-in-class end customer experience. IT and store operations folks need to be armed with the intelligence they need to optimize real-time application performance and efficiently manage this critical area of responsibility.

“When something goes wrong, it's almost impossible to identify the failure pint - and an increasing number of failures come from unintended consequences of more centralized apps in the store. Transaction monitoring, something once relegated to the data center, is becoming a critical part of ensuring a quality customer experience, especially at the point of payment.”
