Customer

A growing retail network that deployed self-service kiosk machines across multiple locations and needed a centralized system to monitor machine health, manage content, track sales, and control customer-facing promotions.

Challenge

The client struggled with managing multiple kiosks distributed across retail outlets. Without a centralized view, they faced:

  • Difficulty in remotely tracking machine status and functionality in real-time.
  • No consolidated view of stock levels, usage patterns, or sales trends per kiosk.
  • Manual setup and configuration of new kiosks, leading to deployment delays.
  • No centralized control of user roles, access permissions, or operational data.
  • Limited insights into machine-specific performance or promotional effectiveness.
Solutions

We developed a centralized Online Control Portal to manage kiosk machines through a modern web-based interface. The system enables remote monitoring, centralized configuration, and real-time data visualization. Core solutions included:

Real-time Machine Monitoring
  • View current status and health of all kiosks using graphical dashboards and alerts.
Kiosk Setup & Configuration
  • Add and manage kiosk install details (location, type, network settings, etc.) easily through web forms.
User & Role Management
  • Define roles like Admin, Technician, Manager with specific access rights to modules and machines.
Stock & Sales Management
  • Track inventory levels and sales per kiosk, generate reports with SSRS integration.
Promotions Module
  • Assign and control kiosk-specific promotions, offers, and banners dynamically.
Customer Module
  • Maintain customer details and analyze kiosk usage patterns linked to loyalty programs.
Reporting & Analytics
  • Export reports in Excel or PDF and gain insights via dynamic charts and visualizations.
