New Features Continue NCR Silver's Mission of Making Running a Small Business Easier Than Ever Before

DULUTH, Ga., Oct. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- NCR Silver™, a revolutionary point-of-sale system created to make running a small business easier, today announced additional features: updated inventory management functionality, enhanced reporting and more robust email marketing tools.  These new and enhanced features will further ensure small business owners using NCR Silver have the necessary tools to compete in today's increasingly competitive business environment.

These new enhancements enable businesses to:

• Keep track of all sales activity by device and quickly spot inconsistencies or irregularities
• Keep track of sales by individual employee and offer incentives or commissions on sales goals
• Know exactly what customers are buying and leverage information to generate automatic, targeted email promotions
• Ensure proper and appropriate use of discounts and quickly identify irregularities
• Ensure proper and appropriate use of price overrides and quickly identify irregularities
• Save time and access reports directly from the point-of sale device

With this release, NCR Silver is further refining the expectations around what technology can do for small businesses and the limitations of traditional cash registers. For example, business owners using traditional cash registers would also need to use several other systems and products to run and manage their businesses.

The ability for businesses to keep customers coming back is important to a business' success. The addition of functionality that enables businesses to track purchases specific to a customer allows them to automatically generate email promotions that are specifically targeted to them.

A common challenge faced by small business owners is finding time in the day to accomplish all of the tasks necessary to ensure their business is running effectively.  Small business owners are often spending their 'day off' sifting through receipts and other time intensive paperwork. NCR Silver's tools are specifically designed to help small business owners handle all of these challenges easily and intuitively with the touch of a button or click of the mouse.

Enhanced reporting features and inventory control solutions make it easier and less time consuming than ever before for business owners to understand how their business is operating and what changes need to be made to improve profitability.

"NCR Silver is continually working to provide a solution that evolves as quickly as the needs of small business," said Christian Nahas, Vice President, Small Business Team, NCR Silver. "We have worked hand-in-hand with our customers to deliver updates to the NCR Silver solution that will help make their business more efficient, effective and hopefully, more profitable."

Running on an Apple® mobile device such as an iPad®, iPhone® or iPod touch®, NCR Silver users automatically receive new features and functionality with a simple update of the app on their device. Updates and product enhancements are always free to NCR Silver subscribers and new features and functionality are seamlessly integrated into the product without disrupting daily business operations.
