Power the 'Omni' in Omnichannel

Consumers now require retailers to provide seamless, “buy anywhere, deliver anywhere” experiences. Moreover, they expect delivery promises to be consistently met, and delivery speeds to be increasingly fast. Never has omnichannel execution played such a significant role in determining a retailer’s brand image. This new normal is why omnichannel commerce remains a leading investment priority for retail leaders1. The power behind a retailer’s omnichannel experience is its order management system (OMS) and its capability to profitability delivery on customer promises.
