Broadband Only Features

With more and more people realising the benefits of broadband, for both business use, mode software is utilising the potential to provide more powerful tools to end users.

In the past, dial-up was used to provide communication between branches and keep databases syncronised. As you can imagine, this was slow tedious when managing even a small number of branches.

Broadband provides a "always on" connection at fixed monthly cost. There is no need to disconnect after a hour, to save on the phone bill. Allowing you access the latest information in seconds.

In fact, some customers are looking into using Voice Over IP (VOIP) to provide free phone calls between branches.

Below are some of the mode EPOS features that require or use broadband to provide additional functionality.

• POS Parser.
• Customer tracking.
• Customer accounts.
• Customer loyalty.
• Alterations.
• POS Transfers.
• Net Comms.

For support, mode software uses broadband to help customers solve problems quicker, reducing down time and saving costly peak rate dial-up connections. As well as providing support, we can also provide training on new features, without leaving the office.

As broadband becomes more common place, mode software will continue to develop software that exploits this new resource.
