Automate your PlanogramsIf you find yourself overwhelmed by keeping hundreds of planograms updated, there are several automation options available to dramatically reduce the hours and days being wasted on non-value added work. For some customers, the solution is creating automation scripts that support your processes. For others, it is a software and discovery project that is ideal for retailers and suppliers. We have clients who are able to make over 4,000 store-specific planograms in less than two hours!

Forecast-aware PlanogramsTraditional planograms are based on historical sales data. Cantactix integrates forecasting date within the Category Management solution so you get plans based on what is expected to happen, not what has happened. Get ahead of your competitors who are still looking in the past. Forward-looking merchandising plans from Cantactix (assortments, planograms and floor plans) optimize what is on the shelves with what sell.

Upgrade to the Current VersionBlue Yonder’s Category Management suite has one major release each year that will contain new features, improvements and capabilities to each of the individual packages. These enhancements are made to address challenges faced by existing customers like you. When your pain is solved by the latest upgrade, Cantactix is ready to help you take advantage of that. Your maintenance fees cover the cost of the latest software version, so why wouldn’t you upgrade?

Migrate to the CloudCategory Management teams are not in the software management business. More and more of our clients are moving their software management out of their own infrastructure to take advantage of low-cost external hosting providers. These services (Cloud, Software-as-a-Service) come in many varied forms and solution offerings. Cantactix can help you migrate your software to these services and support them once they are there. Let experts manage the technology so that you can focus on your business.
