In just one day, Photo-Me went live with 191 EPOS terminals from CSY Retail Systems into in-store photo centres at branches of Asda nationwide.

The Better Food Company

I approached CSY on behalf of Better Food in 2014 with a view to an entire overhaul of our stock management and EPoS systems in our two organic supermarkets. At the time, both stores were running independent systems that were outdated and impacting our ability to trade smoothly. This presented a big challenge in terms of uniting both stores together under one system and the data conversion work needed to make it happen.

Tile Giant is the UK’s fastest growing tile specialist, started in 2003 to provide products that lead the way in trends and the latest materials, sourced in an ethical and sustainable way.

The Nunhead Gardener

The Nunhead Gardener, specialising in small gardens, balconies, indoor plants and gifts, is possibly the most charming garden centre in the UK. Situated underneath the railway arches, by Nunhead station, the forward-thinking gardeners have now installed the Vector EPOS system from CSY to bring a raft of extra benefits to customers.

Duncan Murray Wines

Before CSY, we were using EPOS from a different company and it was a nightmare. The other system was entirely Cloud-based and our Internet coverage isn’t great, which meant it could take ages to process a transaction. To be honest, we’d stopped using it and gone back to our manual tills because they were faster.
