RAIN Alliance member Checkpoint has added to its RFID technology solutions portfolio with the launch of ItemOptix for Retail, our next-generation RFID inventory management software.

Now available to retailers globally, the out-of-the-box solution enables retailers to improve their stock accuracy, handle goods faster, and accelerate the stock movement, ultimately leading to increased sales and a better overall customer experience.

Featuring an in-built mobile app and portal reporting experience, ItemOptix for Retail is easy to use thanks to a unique SaaS (Software as a Service) platform for retailers who want to closely manage their inventory from source to shop. Inspired by consumer-facing apps, the ItemOptix Mobile UX app is designed to offer a simple and minimalist interface to focus users’ attention and avoid any confusion. It displays a set of focused reports that give retail managers the visibility they need to improve store performance.

The software also includes self-service features to support faster onboarding and ongoing system management, as well as industry-standard REST APIs that enable fast and simple integration, making it easy to deploy and offering users greater control over inventory and how it is managed. This means RFID inventory data can be seamlessly integrated into in-house reporting suites, allowing for more extensive analysis while reducing onboarding costs and training requirements. This frees up store staff to focus on customers and ultimately, increases sales.

ItemOptix for Retail has also been built with flexibility in mind, meaning retail operators can transform the look of their interface, customize the capabilities and/or consume whatever information they require from the comfort of their own mobile device, making it the most adaptable RFID solution available, as David Ivins, Channel Partner Director, RFID Software at Checkpoint Systems explains: “ItemOptix for Retail is a gamechanger when it comes to transforming operations and finally giving retailers full visibility of every step of their product’s journey. It is genuinely easy-to-use, easy-to-deploy and easy-to-adapt, meaning inventory data can be seamlessly integrated, ultimately helping to improve the bottom line, increase efficiency and drive profits.”

In addition to utilizing the ItemOptix for Retail app, it is also possible for users to leverage Checkpoint’s RFID back-end software platform to build their own inventor management solution. If preferred, store operators can export all the RFID data from the Checkpoint system into their own repository to build individual reporting applications, providing all the necessary building blocks required to run a successful RFID operation.
