LEXINGTON, Massachusetts (March 1, 2012) - WinterGreen Research
announces that it has a new study on Handheld Point of Sale (POS) Devices. The
2012 study has 316 pages, 121 tables and figures. Worldwide markets are poised
to achieve significant growth. Handheld computer POS terminals represent a
quantum shift in point of sale devices by making a range of POS functions
portable.
Handheld Point of Sale (POS) devices are more versatile than existing standard
PC based point of sale systems, providing greater range of functions and
providing for wireless connectivity to the network. Both WiFi 802.1x fixed
wireless and 4G / 3G wireless data solutions are supported by the handheld POS
systems permitting seamless transport of information to enterprise systems.
Transport of information does depend on middleware integration software.
The segments addressed by handheld POS point of sale devices relate to
extension of and replacement of standard cash register POS retail terminals,
integrated direct inventory POS applications, portable combined remote / on
site POS solutions, and mobile indoor payment POS solutions. Products go
beyond simple retail sale processing. Products help retailers control
inventory flow, combine in-store and back office solutions to enhance
productivity, and track customer purchasing patterns for pinpoint marketing.
Industry-specific solutions are provided across retail segments.
Customer-facing technology is positioned to increase customer loyalty,
retention, and sales.
The companies that have measurable shares in handheld point of sale device
markets are being challenged by dozens of Chinese companies that make
lightweight, inexpensive, very portable handheld point of sale (POS) devices.
There is a significant other portion of market share that is at the low end of
the market. Handheld point of sale device low end products come from multiple
companies in China that collectively garner a significant market position.
Markets grow because systems leverage customer loyalty programs to increase
sales. Incentive pricing, coupon management, repeat business, customer service
and managed transaction systems all can be implemented in an efficient manner
using the handheld terminal computers. Both the scanner and the handheld
terminal have separate computing capability to create efficient systems.
Handheld points of sale computer unit market shipments at $1.1 billion in 2011
are anticipated to reach $3.1 billion by 2018. Markets will grow as the retail
and inventory process is made significantly more efficient by portable
terminal function set including wireless transport and capability.
E-commerce initiatives are enabled. Implementation depends on groups of people
defining goals together to achieve a common goal. That goal is sometimes
elusive. The retail and inventory process is made significantly more efficient
by portable terminal function set including wireless transport and capability.
E-commerce initiatives are enabled.
According to Susan Eustis, the lead author of the study, “the purchase
of handheld point of sale (POS) is driven by the need for modernization of
restaurants, retail, healthcare, and supply chain. The handheld POS devices
support flexibility and analytics implementation permitting more informed
conduct of the business. The use of handheld point of sale (POS) devices is
based on providing a way to automate process. That automation of process and
modernization has appeal to those who run the businesses, track inventory, and
serve customers.”
