The collection of this valuable data is balanced by the need to protect user data and system databases. By using digital tools such as kiosks and tablets, retailers can provide customers with a retail experience that is secure, interactive, and relevant, while ultimately increasing sales and improving customer satisfaction. Kiosk software, like that provided by KioWare, will make that experience simple to deploy, reliable, and secure.
