In the first handelsjournal competition for the best products for retail businesses, Wincor Nixdorf’s BEETLE /NetX nd BEETLE /iSCAN systems were awarded gold and silver in the categories environmental friendliness and customer satisfaction.

The POS system BEETLE /NetX meets three significant customer requirements: best system availability, low-cost swap service, and great environmental friendliness owing to its extremely low power consumption. The use of rugged notebook processor technology combined with a leading-edge flash memory means that this system has a 25 percent lower failure rate than conventional POS systems.

The system’s multi-modular design enables rapid, easy, and therefore cost-effective replacement or exchange of components. Thanks to its power-saving ultra-low voltage Intel Celeron M processor and a modern, energy-efficient 80PLUS power supply, the power consumption costs for this POS system, including peripheral devices, have been reduced by more than 70% when compared with POS systems that rely on traditional technology.

A vital aspect in ensuring high customer satisfaction is reducing waiting times for customers, particularly at checkout. This is where the self-service POS system BEETLE /iSCAN makes an important contribution. It makes shopping easier and pleasanter, and customers can control the complete checkout process themselves. All the system’s components are arranged to ensure intuitive and user-friendly operation, even for customers with health restrictions. The unit's modular design allows for individual adaptations to meet a wide variety of self-service and payment scenarios.
