A number of High Point Furniture Market exhibitors will debut the new version of RepZio's mobile app for Apple devices at the upcoming show.
RepZio provides patent-pending iPad, iPhone and iPod applications for mobile product presentations and sales. Version 3.0 of its mobile app offers many functional enhancements.
"Our main focus is always to help give the reps what they need to sell more efficiently and simultaneously, it is also fun to make the entire system run better," said Max Fraser, CTO of RepZio, North Palm Beach, Fla. "Our data sync now runs ten times faster, images download five times more quickly and these updates no longer impede use of the app itself."
Along with optimizing the app use on the three Apple device platforms (iPhone, iPad, iTouch), users now have many additional options for displaying product images and information. Several new methods for editing order information are offered including updating line item quantities and pricing on the fly. Enhanced searching, sorting, discounting and printing capability also have been added.
"One real challenge was in reprogramming the way the device camera can be used to scan trade show barcodes," said Fraser. "Version 3.0 provides a truly stable and fast bar code scanner. It is really neat to take an iPhone, run the app, and tear through a showroom scanning an order."
The ability to support multi-line sales groups and multiple vendors has also been incorporated, providing RepZio clients with some of the most diverse options in the industry, with different operating series and price tiers available. The Entrepreneur version is perfect for independent reps alone, or for companies who wish to simply use the app for trade show processing. The Enterprise version provides a fully featured app for sales rep groups, manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors. Customization of a branded app is also offered for clients who desire to have their brand highlighted in the App Store.
RepZio customers using the new app during High Point Market include Nourison, Curations Limited, Loloi, Guildmaster, Martin Furniture, Decor-Rest, IMAX, Rosenbaum Fine Art, Control Brand, Craftmaster, Fine Art Lamps and others. In support of its Accessories Resource Team sponsorship, RepZio offers ART members special pricing on app setup.
