Steven Watters, May 23, 2023

The POS system is the beating heart of any retailer's business, but getting the system and technologies into your store and maintaining that heartbeat can sometimes be a challenge.

And more often then not, one project rollout can involve multiple partners in addition to tying up an internal team.  With so many pieces of the puzzle needing to perfectly come together, this can be a labor-intensive and expensive process for retailers. With TRUNO’s Professional Services teams, all of this can be done under one roof, streamlining the process of implementing new technology for retailers all while ensuring that the team maintaining your POS system truly understands both you and your technology.
