Charming Charlie supports global growth with Epicor cloud-based POS

Houston – Specialty accessory retailer Charming Charlie is supporting international growth by moving its POS operations to the cloud. Charming Charlie has moved to a cloud strategy that leverages the POS engine in the cloud, but provides offline capabilities in the event the store loses cloud connectivity.



In the event the store loses connectivity, the transaction will continue on during failover. Once the connection returns to the cloud, any transactions completed while offline, will sync to the cloud. Charming Charlie is using the Epicor POS in the Cloud offering, and plans to have its first pilot store location live on the Epicor Retail Store POS in the Cloud solution within 30 days.



“Epicor Retail Store POS in the Cloud will be a game changer for us,” said John Hnanicek, SVP/CIO for Charming Charlie. “We are gaining extensibility, faster time to market and speed to value, and support on a global scale without the need for extensive capital investments, as well as best-in-class disaster recovery, business continuity and site replication.”
