Retail Software

The market for retail store solutions presents a broad array of requirements

for the functions in these solutions as well as for the software technologies

used. Moreover, the software and hardware is used internationally, and

must meet a wide range of regional requirements. This means, for example,

that solutions that fulfill the regional requirements of Central Europe may

turn out to be inadequate for Asia or Latin America. Wincor Nixdorf provides

customers worldwide with standard products appropriate to the commercial

and technical complexity of their organizations. In keeping with this strategy,

Wincor Nixdorf has defined a portfolio of in-store solutions that accommoda

tes this variety of requirements. The portfolio offers in-store solutions for the

different operating system platforms that are prominently used worldwide

(Microsoft and Linux), and also offers varying degrees of solution complexi

ty. Besides demanding products that will remain viable in the future, today’s

retail customers also require that a solution provider offer other services,

such as project management, customization and integration services, as

well as advice in the selection of basic core technologies.

Wincor Nixdorf store solutions

As an international product provider, we are oriented to market develop-

ments and standards that are available worldwide, allowing us to offer our

customers open solutions and services with guaranteed viability into the fu-

ture.

Software must of course meet the customers’ needs, and these can often

vary greatly. But for the software to be a long-term success, its design and

implementation must also take into account the fundamental trends and

standards that are emerging in the market. Only if you stay open to the dy

namics of retail, it can be ensured that new commercial trends will be reflec

ted within the scope of the solutions provided. To accommodate these

dynamics, Wincor Nixdorf must have the appropriate technical expertise.

When working on product development, projects or consulting, this experti

se is essential to effectively meet current as well as future requirements.
