With the busy holiday season just around the corner, it’s no surprise that convenience and gas stations see more payments at the pump during popular vacation times. But with customers only spending two to three minutes refueling, appealing to diverse customer needs and providing a seamless transaction is critical.

While retailers are pegged to have a particularly favorable holiday season thanks to record-low unemployment across the U.S. and stronger consumer confidence than in past years, management still has their work cut out for them.

One of the many challenges of managing multi-location convenience stores comes in the form of the “out-of-sight, out-of-mind” mentality. With multiple locations spread over a wide geographic area, it’s increasingly difficult to maintain communication, cohesiveness and consistency, especially during the busy holiday season. One way that c-stores can stay ahead of the curve is with RocketBroadband™.

Gain a competitive edge

RocketBroadband not only works to bring RocketFailover® 4G backup connectivity to c-stores, but its iStatus® monitoring lets management know when c-store locations have lost internet connectivity. With stores relying almost entirely on the internet for customer transactions, inventory management and daily communications, no one can afford to have an internet outage during the holiday season.

Wouldn’t it be nice to ensure that customers won’t be lost due to an internet outage? iStatus provides quality assurance that all c-store locations are running at their peak, all from the convenience of a smartphone. That means no more complicated dashboards, constant alerts or weeding through complex data to figure out the problem. iStatus allows retailers to view connections, monitor usage and verify backup connections are ready, all on one unified platform. By delivering important information about locations that are offline directly to key management, connectivity issues can be quickly resolved while the business remains online with RocketFailover.

iStatus also has patent pending ConnectionValidation™ technology which allows iStatus Cloud to test and validate connections without sending large amounts of traffic across expensive connections. With technology to detect internet outages and alert management, iStatus is helping businesses leverage unparalleled connectivity and is truly fighting for customer’s convenience.
