Introducing 24x7 Retail, The ultimate cloud-based POS solution partner for your business!

24x7 Retail is a cloud based Point Of Sales (POS) solution powered by Sri Lanka's leading POS software provider myPOS Software Solutions.

WHAT IS A CLOUD POS SOFTWARE?

 

Cloud-based computing (also called Software as a Service, or SaaS) allows users to access software applications that run on shared computing resources. For example processing power, memory, and disk storage via the Internet. These computing resources are maintained in remote data centers dedicated to hosting various applications on multiple platforms.

 

Cloud POS is a Software as a Service that allows users to access point of sales software over the Internet. Cloud POS systems generally has much lower upfront costs because computing resources are leased by the month rather than purchased outright and maintained on premises. Cloud software also gives companies access to their business-critical applications at any time from any location.

 

While technically the only difference between Cloud POS and on-premises POS is, where the software is physically located, there are other significant differences which we explain below.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS AND ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD SOFTWARE

 

Cloud is particularly valuable to small and medium-sized businesses (SMB’s) because it provides access to all-functions of applications at a reasonable price without a substantial upfront expenditure for hardware and software. Using the right cloud provider, a company can rapidly scale their business productivity as their business grows or a new company is added.

 

THE BENEFITS OF CLOUD COMPUTING

 

  • Cloud software has been proven to reduce costs in many ways because it:

    • Avoids upfront costs for all computing infrastructure such as hardware and data servers.

    • Reduces IT support services, because IT support is provided by the data center.

    • Eliminates paying upfront for application software licenses in favor of a monthly fee.

    • Shrinks the cost of maintaining and supporting applications since the cloud vendor handles the updates and upgrades.

 

  • The most important benefits of Cloud software go beyond cost savings and include:

    • Paying only for the computing resources required.

    • A fixed monthly rate so companies can use their cash on other business initiatives.

    • By taking advantage of Cloud software applications which are accessible faster, since the installation of hardware and software on servers or user devices are not required.

    • The ability to adjust the amount of cloud service required, as and when a company’s computing or storage needs fluctuate.

    • Having the assurance that the data has been backed up and that there is a disaster recovery plan in place.

    • Avoiding attacks on the company’s server because the data is not stored locally, but in the cloud

    • Being able to access the system from anywhere makes it easier for a company to expand geographically as Internet is available all over and there is no need to install hardware and software at remote locations.
