/ Key word(s): Product Launch
GK Software is launching an innovation offensive and has started to develop a new, ground-breaking range of solutions for the retail trade. Using the heading “A new deal for the retail industry”, the development of GK SPOT, a completely new cloud-based big data service, will be the special major focus here. GK SPOT is currently being developed as a big data solution that is tailored to the needs of the retail sector on the tried and tested CLOUD4RETAIL platform; it aims to eliminate existing restrictions and tap into new possibilities. The Fiskal Cloud solution was also developed on the CLOUD4RETAIL platform using the latest technologies and it is now handling more than ten million transactions in real time every day. In addition to GK SPOT, GK’s innovation offensive also includes the Omnibasket.com open platform, which opens up a unique type of retail enterprise solution for extensions for customers and innovators as well as new omni-channel solutions, for example, for managing orders. The Management Board at GK Software assumes that GK SPOT will enable the company to further extend the competitive edge that the CLOUD4RETAIL platform already enjoys and create the basis for ongoing, high-value cloud solution services for the retail sector. The company is planning to launch the new solution in the market place in 2021.
