A Quick Explanation Of The Cloud And How It Works With POS Software

Taking advantage of all the latest innovations is key to a modern successful business. Of course, that includes the most recent and up-to-date POS  software with the latest features like the ability to maintain open tickets, associate tips with credit card/cash transactions and cloud-based technology that reduces on-site networking maintenance.

Taking advantage of the cloud means you no longer need to burden yourself with learning how to setup and operate your own servers and securely backed up data is available when and where you need it. Still, if you are like many business owners exploring all the wonderful things POMePOS can do for you, a quick explanation of the cloud might be a useful tool to help you understand how it is an essential part of our point of sale system and your business.

First off, the cloud is important by its very nature because it allows your business to store and access POS software and data over the Internet. The name is derived from a time when the Internet was portrayed as the namesake in presentations—a bulbous white cloud with connections running in and information processing out. Our cloud-based SQL Data Storage model plays off that metaphor and a quick and easy initial setup that involves entering your inventory and information is all that is needed to get started.

The further benefits are clear and have been documented by noted consultants in the business arena, McKinsey&Company. In fact, research from the firm states 63 percent of business leaders responding to a recent survey felt the cloud can make their organizations more responsive and agile. Combined with our POMePOS, you can rest assured your data is safe from viruses, thefts and other disasters with this cloud-based POS software system.
