How to run your business remotely with a cloud-based POS

As a business owner, staying on top of your business operations anywhere, anytime, is how to achieve success. You want to be able to access all the information you can get about your business at your fingertips.  You can do this with a smart cloud-based point of sale (POS) system.

This powerful tool allows you to access real-time sales data, manage inventory, and process transactions from any device with an internet connection. According to market reports, businesses’ usage of cloud-based POS systems is expected to grow to $954 million (USD) by 2028. This number shows that many companies rely on cloud-based POS to support their business operations.

Keep reading if you have yet to switch to a cloud-based POS system. This article will explore the benefits of using one to run your business remotely.

What is a cloud-based POS system?

Cloud-based POS systems let operators store transactions, inventory, employee and other business data on a remote server. Allowing users to have their data stored in the cloud and can be accessed on demand. This technology allows business owners to operate more competently and effectively for their consumer base.

Using a cloud-based smart POS system also provides added security for your business data. With cloud computing, your data is encrypted and stored off-site with additional layers of redundancy. This helps protect your sensitive information from disasters and other unforeseen events, giving you peace of mind and ensuring the safety of your business data.

For example, the Qashier smart POS runs on a cloud-based system. Transaction data syncs to the cloud, allowing business owners to securely access sales data from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

Top 3 benefits of a cloud-based POS system

Increased data visibility: A cloud-based POS system allows you to access your data from anywhere with an internet connection. This means you can view inventory counts, labour usage percentages, productivity reports or your daily totals remotely – and in real-time. This increased visibility can help you make more informed decisions about your business operations and can help you identify areas for improvement.

For example, suppose you notice a particular product selling out quickly, you can use this information to adjust your inventory levels and ensure you always have enough stock to meet demand. Effective inventory management can lead to better sales!

Increases mobility: A cloud-based POS system increases mobility by allowing you to access your point of sale from any location and manage your business remotely. With an internet connection, you can process transactions, manage inventory, and access sales data from any device. This increased mobility can benefit companies with multiple branches in various locations or business owners who need to travel frequently. With a cloud-based POS system, you can stay connected to your business and keep track of your operations even when you’re on the go.

For example, the newly launched Qashier app lets business owners experience Qashier’s point-of-sale functionality just by using their Android smart devices. In addition, the Qashier app is a cost-effective solution since no extra terminals are required. Small business owners can now take their business to their customers. That’s because the app is an integrated POS and payment solution, equipping merchants with remote payment acceptance while allowing them to create promotions, reward store credit, and keep track of members’ transaction history.

Decreased downtime during updates: A cloud-based POS system can reduce downtime because the system updates remotely and automatically. This means you don’t have to manually update each device or terminal, which can be time-consuming and result in unnecessary downtime. Instead, updates can be pushed to all devices simultaneously, reducing the time it takes to update the system and minimising the impact on your business operations. In addition, this can help ensure that your POS system is always up-to-date with the latest features and security patches without causing disruptions to your business.
