Is Your Software Giving You a Headache? We work with a number of excellent software companies, and while the software can be extremely helpful for our customers, it can sometime cause a few headaches after implementation. Getting software implemented correctly is not a one-and-done project. Each customer is different and requires a slightly different implementation and maintenance for the selected software.

This is where EMP may be able to help! At the core of our business is service. Our company is structured to handle not only the initial software/hardware sales, but we are also here to make sure it is implemented correctly the first time. Read the article below to find out more... Is Your Software Giving You a Headache?

FEATURED PRODUCT Shop Floor Data Collection Terminals - CC600 & CC6000 You may have seen them in your favorite retailer. Mounted to a pole at the far end of the store, a kiosk that you can use for checking the price of an item. Or more recently, you might have used one to place an order instead of going to a cash register-based clerk. Small touch screen-based terminals with a built-in bar code scanner. Add to that, Zebra’s Enterprise rugged version of Android, built in wireless, Ethernet, Bluetooth, and a wide temp range. What you have here is the CC600 and CC6000, semi-rugged, feature laden, shop floor data collection terminals. With a 5” or 10” screen size option. All at a price that won’t break the bank.

Why didn’t Zebra think of this? The answer is, we aren’t sure. Retail customers tend to be some of Zebra’s biggest revenue customers and this product was developed with them in mind. But as a partner that works heavily in the warehouse and manufacturing space, all that we can see is a full function, shop floor terminal. You won’t want to use these in the outdoors or in an oil refinery, but this product is more than tough enough for most production environments. We are working on our first customer application with this product right now and have a few demo units available. Reach out to the EMP Tech Group today to arrange for an onsite demonstration!
