Great Product and Service
Date: Oct 03 2024SummaryWe ordered this device for our retail store and it works great. Not only was it easy to set up, but we were contacted by a customer success representative who gave a tutorial on the website and all of the reporting that’s available. Then they followed up for a second call to make sure everything was working, to see if we had questions, and to show us more in-depth reports. The counter does more that we had anticipated and will be a great tool for schedule shifts and break times. Don’t skip the tutorials or you will miss out on all the potential this has. Thank you, Sayantani, for being such a great resource, your service was excellent!
PositiveThe device was easy to set up, it comes with very clear directions, and the customer service for onboarding was exceptional. We worked with Sayantani and she was very helpful with showing us how to set up reports. With the reporting not only do we have a daily count, but we see averages by the day and even by the hour which is helpful for scheduling shifts and break times.
NegativeThe device does everything we needed and more with all the reporting, We really don't have a con.

Great for counting laundromat traffic
Date: Sep 27 2024SummaryOverall the traffic counter has provided real time insight into my business traffic that has helped me make more informed decisions.
PositiveThe physical installation was very simple and the WiFi connection was an easy setup as well. My router is far away from the front door so had some connectivity issues initially but the SMS customer service team was responsive in solving the issue by recommending a WiFi extender which solved the problem. I have had the traffic counter in place at my laundromat for almost a year and it's worked flawlessly. I am able to see update traffic counts every 15 min into the store. This data has helped me know which days to be open longer to better serve customers.
NegativeI pay for the online subscription to have access to more than 4 weeks of historical data. The online reporting tools aren't as user friendly as I would like but nothing that an export to Excel can't fix.

PositiveI like the software automatically sending me reports on the counts as well as telling me when there's an outage of some kind. The reports are gold.

SMS Store Traffic- TMAS Software
Date: Apr 12 2023SummaryWill be an integral part of our strategy to grow our business. Having these metrics to refer back will be incredibly valuable and I love having so much data, down to the weather each day to help make staffing decisions and guide my coaching to my retail team.
Positive- Having an initial training and then a follow up a month or so later was really helpful because I could make a list of questions that came up as I was utilizing the TMAS software
- The "?" on each report leading to a help section article on that report was really helpful as I was learning, as well as having a chat available for anything I was unable to locate in the help section
-Being able to schedule reports to send automatically is really nice and saves time weekly
- Utilizing these reports has been extremely helpful to identify training opportunities within our staff and make staffing decisions based on traffic trends
-As a smaller business that doesn't need to utilize all the reports being able to hide unnecessary ones makes it much easier to navigate to the most used reportsNegative- As a small business with only 4 locations, I'd love a more streamlined report that graphs all four stores performances together on a bar graph or pie graph (depending on the metric) to give an "at a glance" view of month end or quarter end performance of stores compared to each other. So it could be similar to the four graphs report but shows all four stores sales in one pie graph showing which has the highest percentage, show each store's % sold in another, etc. So its a quick easy to navigate over view, easier to picture than a list of numbers in a table at month end to try and compare.

- More integration with scheduling software. I manually enter staffing daily so being able to have that auto populate based on our timesheets would be great and save me some time. Having the sales per staff hour and other metrics related to staffing is really awesome but it would be great to have it automatic (we use WhenIWork for scheduling and time sheets)Official SMS Storetraffic Response -

Date: Dec 12 2023SummaryWhat was most helpful to me was the onboarding training provided with the tool. The training was geared to our application and saved us countless hours in getting up to speed using the tool.
PositiveI have found SMS Store traffic to be a game changer in the information it can provide to help make critical business decisions such as proper store staffing, how weather impacts store traffic, and the impact of marketing campaigns on store traffic.

Great Traffic Counter Solution
Date: Dec 09 2022SummaryOur overall experience has been excellent. SMS is diligent and efficient in customer service and support and I would recommend them as a traffic counting solution to any business looking to accurately track entries and exits.
Positive- Two different traffic counter solutions depending on the need at the location you need to install it in, camera based and light beam. This allows great flexibility and scalability of the platform as a solution.
- More importantly, the support in initial setup of the hardware is great.
Hardware setup instructions are well documented and easily searchable on the SMS support site. If you do have issues, their support team is knowledgeable and incredibly responsive in the online chat on their support site. Even before we purchased the platform, their technical support team patiently answered my questions regarding the setup and implementation needs so I could understand the platform better before committing to buy. After purchase I have experienced the same level of support. The hardware ordered from their site ships in a timely manner, often the same day it's ordered. As we have added devices in our environment, SMS has helped with initial setup and calibration as well as monitoring for anomalies after install. Any time I have had a question it has been answered quickly and professionally. The partnership we have seen from them is among the best we have experienced in a third party provider. The reporting platform is robust and their API makes it easy to integrate into your BI tool of choice.NegativeI have found very few cons when working with the team at SMS. The TMAS platform while robust is not the most intuitive, however, the onboarding training and ongoing readily available support offsets any challenges for us.
