Whether your sales team is working 2 or 2,000 miles away, the last thing you need to worry about is accessing your point of sale system. Information is critical to making better business decisions and when you need it- you need it. Yet all too often, the majority of devices that use a dynamic or non-static IP address run into access issues because users simply don’t know the IP address… causing inconvenient headaches during peak business hours.
Whether your sales team is working 2 or 2,000 miles away, the last thing you need to worry about is accessing your point of sale system. Information is critical to making better business decisions and when you need it- you need it. Yet all too often, the majority of devices that use a dynamic or non-static IP address run into access issues because users simply don’t know the IP address… causing inconvenient headaches during peak business hours.
A simple fix to address this problem is to implement Dynamic DNS. A DDNS service will allow you to access your POS device without having to remember a lengthy IP address. You specify your own device name and use the same name every time you access the device. This allows you to quickly call results from your sales device that allow you to make better decisions that impact your bottom line. The best part? It’s completely affordable and easy to set up.
Next time your sales team hits the road, trade show or sales floor, prepare ahead of time by setting up Dynamic DNS.
