SMS Store Traffic- TMAS Software
5 out of 5 stars 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 -

Great Traffic Counter Solution
5 out of 5 stars 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.
