Customer expectations have shifted drastically, reshaping today’s storefronts to deliver faster service, consistent product availability, and bolstered customer satisfaction. As a result, retail-ready technologies must now work harder and faster to keep storefronts ahead of demands. Complex workflows can no longer be tolerated, which is why high-demand storefronts such as discount stores are equipping their teams with enterprise-ready mobile devices. As part of an end-to-end mobility solution, next-generation mobility can increase worker performance and meet high demand without overwhelming store associates.

Turning mobility into profitability

Designed to sustain productivity in fast-paced environments, newer enterprise-grade devices such as Zebra’s line of mobile computers and printers streamline workflows to enable…

1. Quicker shelf replenishment – Out-of-stocks are one of the top drivers of lost sales. To prevent empty shelves from driving customers away, mobile devices can function as both scanners, computers, and communicators, allowing employees to quickly locate dwindling stock in real-time and replace products. 
2. Enhanced cybersecurity – If a device is connected to a network, it is vulnerable to cyberattacks. Consequently, modernized mobile devices running on Android are equipped with higher security measures to ward off unauthorized users from accessing sensitive data such as payment information.  
3. Faster frictionless checkout – The checkout lane is one of the most critical foundations of the customer experience. Intelligent scan engines can help reduce wait times by ensuring more successful first-time scans in less time both at the checkout lane and for curbside pickup.
