SB SOFTWARE
Make Technology Work Hard for You. Now. It’s as Easy as 1 - 2 - 3.
Simon Black, MD SB Software, the Makers of Vendmanager
For me personally, as a lifelong software engineer both by calling and by trade, data itself has its own intrinsic value. Data is useful in and of itself. So “of course” it should be made to work hard. Simple.
Now that I am also a business owner and manager myself though, I appreciate far more the importance of bringing such value to life in ways that help everyone, not just specialists like myself, to appreciate the opportunities that data opens up - especially in our very own vending sector.
I will always enjoy discussing bits and bytes with my fellow software engineers, or reviewing code and evaluating system architecture with my peers and colleagues. But that is like preaching to the converted. And that’s not what I want to do here. Instead I will keep things extremely simple. And direct, with business peers within vending in mind. I want to distil right down to the essence - the vital facts about data and technology today regarding vending for a commercial audience. And I’ll do it in just three steps.
1) WE HAVE NEVER HAD IT SO GOOD!
Simon Black, MD SB Software, the Makers of Vendmanager
For a long time there was very little (or no) data available in our sector at all. That was akin to driving a car blindfold.
Then data started to come on stream, but the tools on hand for putting it to work were non-existent, or slow and inadequate, and too often clumsy or unreliable. There was data, but it was like a smog swirling around us: impossible to harness effectively.
