Elo’s touch tech leads way
Elo, a leading global supplier of retail technology solutions, has announced additions to its broad family of POS and self-service solutions. Elo reduces technology complexity while increasing application potential with a common architecture across a broad range of Android or Windows devices with a fully modular and configurable design.
Elo provides retailers with the tools needed to create in-store experiences that engage customers and drive sales.
POS, self-service, and signage solutions can easily be crafted by leveraging Elo touchscreens from 10- to 70-inches and configured with Elo Edge Connect peripheral devices and sleek stands and mounts.
For Android devices, EloView device management software securely connects and controls large or small networks at minimal cost. Software deployment and hardware maintenance are greatly simplified, eliminating the need to have separate support concepts for POS terminals, kiosks, price checkers, endless aisle solutions and interactive signage.
Within the full Elo platform, notable new offerings include the versatile EloPOS system, stylish Elo PayPoint Plus for Windows system, and the compact 1302L touchscreen monitor.
EloPOS System for Windows: This versatile system combines modern aesthetics, modular flexibility, and commercial-grade durability.

ELO: HERO IN A TACO SHELL
Taco Bell is relying on Elo touchscreens to provide an interactive solution for its year-long roll out of self-service kiosks across its nearly 7000 US restaurants.
Taco Bell uses EloView software to simplify deployment, management and security of the kiosk devices and content, helping to create a consistent experience for every customer visit. The EloView solution allows management of self-order kiosks from a central location, reducing operating costs while increasing uptime and security. The touchscreen displays include Elo’s versatile 22-inch Android I–Series built for high-traffic environments.
Self-service kiosks represents “the next frontier”, according to Rafik Hanna, senior director of Taco Bell’s All Access. “We are early on in the kiosk strategy,” he said, adding the focus is on using agile software to improve the experience as even “small changes can yield big results.” The goal is improved ordering accuracy and modernising the order experience.
