Northwoods Software Releases Next Generation of Cloud-based Planogramming

NASHUA, N.H., March 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Northwoods Software® today announced that it has released Version 2.1 of its GoPlanogram® cloud-based planogramming service, which now provides support for modern tablets and smartphones, including Apple iPad® mobile devices and Android™ tablets and phones.

This latest release of the GoPlanogram service allows manufacturers, distributors, and retailers to create and edit retail store product layouts (i.e. planograms) on mobile devices.  Key strengths of the GoPlanogram service have been fast and easy cloud-based planogramming for desktop computers.  The addition of mobile support in Version 2.1 now makes planogramming portable and convenient.  With mobile support, field sales staff and merchandisers can view and edit planograms while on site at their customers' retail stores.

Version 2.1 allows mobile devices to access the leading features of the GoPlanogram service, including: easy and fast drag-and-drop planogram design, easily creating and using assortments of products (or "groups"), instant 24x7 worldwide sharing of planograms by company employees, unlimited undo and redo, multiple merchandising fixtures, daily planogram backup; and dozens of other features.  Cloud-based sharing of planograms is a feature that has the potential for great sales productivity.  GoPlanogram subscribers also continually receive new features at no extra charge as they are rolled out, a significant benefit of a cloud-based service.  For full details, visit www.goplanogram.com.
