We however found that typically customers that require us to connect remotely, do so often. Either because they prefer that ROBOTILL support them remotely instead of following instructions or they frequently make network and server changes requiring us to connect computers that we previously already connected. </p><p>If we had to continue to provide this service (as a courtesy, as we clearly state on our website that we only do email support), we would have been forced to employ more second tier support technicians. That means we would have needed to significantly increase the price of a licence or we would have had to start charging for support. </p><p>As it is only about 5% of our customers that need remote support, it meant that it would have negatively affected the 95% of our customers that do not need this level of support. </p><p>We came up with the best solution for our customers. We are focused on improving our free email support and our online help, but we no longer give remote support. Instead, we listed our resellers on our website that offer this service. The way our website works is that the resellers that are most often used will be listed higher up in the list - meaning that they will compete to give the best service at the best price. </p><p>That gives our customers that do require remote support the option to <a href="https://www.robotill.com/ResellerList" target="_blank">choose a reseller and get the best possible deal</a>. </p><p><b>ROBOTILL is still the best option:</b></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Quality software that is easy to use</li><li>Very low yearly licence fee to use the full edition (compared to our competitors).</li><li>Free email support</li><li>Offers a list of options to get remote or on-site support at the best prices from independent resellers.</li></ul><p></p>Johanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00391257632450436195noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8658759849410539442.post-9679545189802602882023-11-13T04:50:00.000-08:002023-11-13T04:50:50.194-08:00ROBOTILL Version 9.11 Released<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfcEoQXJB1h9b9f0OGilpfzh-omnII_bRcNkh8ckfbl1TTE414RzWU43b143sDggDTcRgA7sWmUVFZAfDiSdGkiVwyqUxkB-uJwofWgPrX6N24TaZ7-p0bYhPKbxWdMN92FICasVc2TrE1NonIe_6IrjkKjS5KYVrluZrLjQ3cK5dVSMLIjByQojG2sxIM/s800/NewVersionBlog.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfcEoQXJB1h9b9f0OGilpfzh-omnII_bRcNkh8ckfbl1TTE414RzWU43b143sDggDTcRgA7sWmUVFZAfDiSdGkiVwyqUxkB-uJwofWgPrX6N24TaZ7-p0bYhPKbxWdMN92FICasVc2TrE1NonIe_6IrjkKjS5KYVrluZrLjQ3cK5dVSMLIjByQojG2sxIM/s320/NewVersionBlog.png" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p>ROBOTILL Version 9.11 has been released.

If you want to upgrade to the full edition you will be able to purchase a 12 or 24 month licence (as before, the one month licence option was only introduced 3 months ago). </p><p>The decision to discontinue the one month licences were taken because of the following reasons:</p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>The one month licence was a lot more popular than we expected. It resulted in a huge increase in our support team workload as each computer using the one month licence needs to be re-registered on a monthly basis.</li><li>Customers purchasing the one month licences do not understand that using the one month licence would require then to re-register the PC every month - resulting in a couple of unhappy customers. </li><li>We realized that some users only purchase a one month licence to use the label printing feature of ROBOTILL. </li></ul><div>We will still make the one month licences available at an increased price to customers that use ROBOTILL for a market once a year. </div><div><br /></div><div>Please <a href="https://robotill.com/Contact" target="_blank">contact us if you have any queries</a>. </div><p></p>Johanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00391257632450436195noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8658759849410539442.post-48829635925344822992022-08-17T06:02:00.001-07:002022-08-17T06:02:49.123-07:00Training video for new cashiers<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="369" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4CgJawjecn4" width="444" youtube-src-id="4CgJawjecn4"></iframe></div><br />Shop owners can use this training video to train new cashiers that will be working on the retail module of the ROBOTILL point of sale system.
