MANHATTAN ACTIVE® OMNI
OMNICHANNEL RETAIL SOLUTION
Cloud-native unified commerce
Omnichannel retail means a common experience anywhere along during the customer journey, regardless of shopping online or in brick and mortar stores or how the consumer decides to engage with a brand. One unified experience.
AGILITY MEANS PROFITABILITY
From B2B to B2C to B2B2C, the retail industry is scrambling to adapt to a reality in which nearly every order is digitally influenced, and agility means the difference between obsolescence and excellence. The convergence of physical and digital in modern shopping experiences is complete and that means every retailer needs the agility to sell, engage and fulfill anywhere and everywhere.
BURDENED BY LEGACY
But how does most of the industry deliver solutions to help offer the best possible shopping experience? Completely separate systems for order orchestration, customer service, point of sale, store fulfillment and so on. Different architectures, different interfaces, different version release schedules, and performance capabilities.
Unfortunately, legacy technology architectures are incapable of truly unifying omnichannel processes like global promotions, inventory promising, order orchestration and in-store selling in the modern world. They are limited by large monolithic databases, customizations that must be duplicated over and over for every upgrade, and an untenable number of integrations that leave organizations in eternal testing purgatory.
MANHATTAN ACTIVE IS DIFFERENT
But Manhattan Active® Omni delivers a unified approach to selling, engagement and fulfillment in a single cloud-native app, it is the only solution with the flexibility and scalability to profitably deliver on the promise of omnichannel customer experiences. Born in the cloud, Manhattan Active Omni is a modern platform of order management, inventory, fulfillment, customer engagement and point of sale solutions that is always current and fully extensible.
