We are now in the busiest time of year for retailers in the U.S. and retailers are getting ready for the huge influx in business. As holiday shopping habits continue to change with the rise of eCommerce and online mega-deal days like Cyber Monday and Black Friday, many retailers that have not yet embraced the cloud and mobility will be looking for a new retail management software solution once the season is over.
Microsoft has made no bones about its commitment to a mobile first, cloud first philosophy, and that is good news for retailers who want to leverage Microsoft’s retail management software in their stores. Part of embracing a mobile first world is becoming device agnostic, and solutions like Microsoft Dynamics AX for retail are now web enabled so retail employees and shoppers can access portals from any device.
“When we think about the Microsoft cloud for mobility or mobile scenarios, there are two very unique things that we bring to the table…” said Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s CEO in a recent press statement. “The first one is that we think about users, both individuals and organizations, spanning across all devices. So that is one aspect that you will see us stress a lot. And second is the coming together of the three key constituents that make all this magic happen; that is end users, developers and IT professionals. Microsoft has always been about bringing those three constituents together with platforms and applications, and we now do that in a mobile-first, cloud-first world, and that’s our pursuit, that’s our innovation agenda, and that’s what you’ll hear us talk a lot about.”
Microsoft Dynamics products, for example, are uniquely ready to be deployed in the cloud, publicly or privately, or in a hybrid environment which may include on-premises deployment.
Many of those organizations in need of a new retail management software solution are looking to the future and see how dynamic their industry has become. With such rapid change, as new devices and new operating systems hit the market all the time, retailers put agility high on their list of priorities when evaluating a new system.
Because Microsoft relies on its community of hundreds of partners and independent software vendors, its solutions are deployed and extended in a highly collaborative and innovative environment. This agility and flexibility, along with being device agnostic, make Microsoft Dynamics an ideal solution for retailers.
