The partnership has made NexSys a key reseller of TransLution mobile software for the UK and Europe, adding to its already impressive mobile product range. The product complements NexSys’s existing SYSPRO Espresso product, which was introduced with the recent SYSPRO 7 upgrade.
TransLution has been chosen by NexSys as a direct response to its customers for a solution that can meet high demand for instantaneous fast transactions.
