Zebra Technologies Unveils Reimagined Software Portfolio at ZONE Customer Conferences

Zebra Workcloud helps customers lower costs, improve efficiencies and mitigate risk

Zebra Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ZBRA), a leading digital solution provider enabling businesses to intelligently connect data, assets, and people, unveiled Zebra Workcloud™—its purpose-built suite of enterprise software applications—at its annual ZONE customer user conferences held last month in Las Vegas, Nev. and Reading, United Kingdom.

Primarily serving the retail, banking and healthcare industries, Zebra Workcloud helps enterprise leaders engage and retain workers, foster collaboration, improve inventory management and forecasting as well as streamline replenishment and loss prevention. Zebra Workcloud works natively with Zebra devices, and it is designed to be the destination solution for front-line worker optimization. Faster deployments, quicker time-to-value, and stronger investment returns are among important advantages of Zebra Workcloud.

“Our customers are resilient, and we are committed to helping them stay that way by leveraging the power of Zebra Workcloud—a modern solution built to solve real problems for front-line workers,” said Suresh Menon, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Software Solutions, Zebra Technologies. “Zebra Workcloud provides new ways of working with technology and will further enable our customers to be agile and adaptable to the challenges they face now and in the future.”

Zebra Workcloud is made up of specialized suites of solutions that digitize workflows for the most critical functions of a modern enterprise: Workforce Optimization, Enterprise Collaboration, Inventory Optimization and Demand Intelligence.

  • Workforce Optimization – formerly Reflexis Workforce Management and Reflexis Task Management – helps decision-makers tackle the challenges of labor cost and availability, from task to timekeeping as well as scheduling, budgeting and forecasting.
  • Enterprise Collaboration – formerly Workforce Connect – is a natively developed tool from Zebra with more than 20 years of experience using push-to-talk and voice-over-IP to empower more effective and connected front-line employees.
  • Inventory Optimization drives efficiency in planning, ordering, pricing, promotions, and markdowns. It also includes intelligence gathering and action tools for loss prevention and physical inventory counting. This suite is built on innovation behind the Zebra Prescriptive Analytics/Profitect, SmartCount and antuit.ai software capabilities.
  • Demand Intelligence leverages supply chain, labor, and inventory data to drive better decisions about stock levels and future demand. This is the generative and predictive artificial intelligence (AI) tool from antuit.ai.

Each Zebra Workcloud suite provides modular solutions that align to business priorities and make it easy to scale. Enterprises globally can use Zebra Workcloud to lower costs, improve efficiencies and remove risk to make teams more productive and offer elevated customer experiences.

“What makes Zebra different is its ability to understand the needs of retailers,” said Jonas Stillman, Senior Director, Omni-Channel Ops & Store Systems, Office Depot. “Its support infrastructure is second to none with best-in-class hardware maintenance programs and an agile software development team that is continuously seeking ways to improve the functionality of critical applications that retailers rely on, helping us drive efficiency and bring new products to life.”

Stillman was among 27 customer speakers at both ZONE customer conferences. The two events drew more than 300 customers and 25 partners. This annual event reflects Zebra’s commitment to creating a vibrant customer community, providing a forum for customers to converse, connect and collaborate with other customers, Zebra executives and strategic partners.
