Brushing Up on Stocktake

Moving from Windows® to Android® is a Smooth Transition

Overview

Eckersley’s is one of the largest fine art, craft and design supplies retailers in Australia. Eckersley’s began in October 1965, with its very first store opening in Prahran, Victoria. This was established by two Eckersley’s brothers, and the store was then known as “N.S. Eckersley’s Pty Ltd”. Now, the company has grown from strength to strength, with 27 stores located across Australia. ASP’s original custom stocktake solution served Eckersley’s well for many years, but has now been replaced by ASP’s zapMYstock™ inventory management software, running on Denso’s ultra rugged and ergonomic Android 2D imager terminals.
