ScanSource POS and Barcode, a value-added distributor of automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) and point-of-sale (POS) solutions, services, and sales unit of ScanSource Inc., †has launched ScanSource As-A-Service Suite. The new, multi-faceted program is designed to create flexibility and enhance profitability for reseller customers by providing multiple service-oriented solution options.
“The shift to an IT as-a-service model presents resellers with both lucrative opportunities and frustrating obstacles – we developed ScanSource As-A-Service Suite to help our customers better meet this evolving way of doing business,” says Paul Constantine, president of ScanSource POS and Barcode, U.S./Canada.
The program provides reseller customers with simple solutions to the complex challenges posed by the transition to as-a-service and managed services business models in three ways:
- FlexAbility – This finance tool streamlines customers’ services, software, and hardware into one monthly invoice and allows resellers to decide how they structure sales.
- POS As-A-Service Bundle – By bundling best-of-breed products with maintenance and service contracts, ScanSource aims to provide resellers with the ability to offer end-users reliable, predictable outcomes at a fixed monthly cost with no up-front capital commitments.
- Managed Retail Solutions – With this tool, resellers can own all of the IT solutions in the retail store and manage it remotely from one comprehensive dashboard.
“The transition in retail to as-a-service and managed services models are hot topics for point-of-sale resellers today. End users are driving this shift and expect to work with one reseller for all of their IT needs, with the flexibility to pay for everything as they go,” adds Constantine. “Our As-A-Service Suite will help resellers be more nimble and adaptive – to ultimately better serve their customers.”
