Linux vs Windows Based POS Systems
Whenever
one watches an old movie when people get off their cars to fill gas at gas
stations or at convenience stores, they can see bills and purchases being made
at the cash register devices, but in today’s technological advanced and
competitive world, where data and information is worth billions because it
helps businesses to analyze and gain any competitive advantage over other
competitors, thus significantly improving their chances of success, POS systems
forms the backbones of any business today.
Not only
they print invoice and make error free bills at super fast speeds, but they
also allow businesses to collect real time information of sales and purchases
made by their customers, help track inventory and stock of thousands of
products across various warehouses and retail stores, and to analyze the market
trends providing solutions that help in business growth and reducing wastage.
In today’s
online insecure environment where hackers are trying to exploit any loose ends
in company’s software systems to make easy money, stability and safety of POS
systems becomes a very important factor to consider while purchasing any POS
system. One of the reasons why clients prefer Verifone’s system is because the
Ruby POS runs on Linux operating system instead of windows operation system
which has far more malware issues and loose end than Linux based systems.
The Verifone Ruby POS login is much more secure than any other POS
system login because it is based on Linux builds which are very different from
one another, thus creating a universal malware for it becomes next to
impossible. Verifone has individualized their operations so much that it s nearly impossible for
any hacker to compromise the safety of Verifone Ruby POS login based systems.
Verifone
Ruby POS admin lets one enable and disable all the new features and commands.
There is a feature called training mode which is available in Verifone Ruby POS admin which helps in training a new hired person on learning how to use all
the features or even an old existing employee to get grip of all the new
features. This training mode is best for learning because it provides real like
sale situations and even if an employee makes a mistake it does not affect the
company in any way. This training mode can help trainees from basic system
functions like using card readers to more advanced functions like using PLU
customizations.
Although
regular security check ups and updates are done on the Verifone systems to
discover new bugs and security issues and provide fixes in the updates as soon
as it detected, however like any other software, sometimes an error might
occur. To take care of this and to reassure customers that they don’t have to
worry even for a minute, Verifone Ruby POS support is available 24 X 7 to its customers free to
