Vendmanager Datakey: making data-reading at the machine simple, fast and accurate

Following overwhelmingly positive feedback at AVEX at the NEC, and at the recent AVS Conference in Portugal, SB Software has confirmed that its latest product Vendmanager Datakey is already available for sale.

Datakey allows operators to fill more machines per day, while improving accuracy and security, with meter readings extracted direct from the machine, eliminating user error. Detailed sales data is captured at the spiral level, allowing planograms to be optimised.

The system is also more secure than alternative approaches, since cash reconciliation is based on data captured direct from the machine, not user input. With a standard 6.3 mm jack plug (1/4in), you just slot the Datakey in, to transfer data effortlessly via Bluetooth, free from cables. Implementing Datakey is very low cost per machine: you only need one Datakey fob per operator. It’s easy, fast, and error-free: nothing needs to be keyed-in manually.

SBS will be featuring Datakey, alongside Vendmanager Mobile – now on Android – at Vendex North at Old Trafford, on November 7.
