Benefits of Touchscreen Technology

The usefulness and practicality of touchscreen technology is undeniable. Below are some of the benefits that many of our customers are experiencing:

1. Simple clear interface

One of the most obvious benefits of touchscreen technology is its easy-to-use nature. You touch what you want to interact with, point where you want to go, and tap on what you want to open. In today’s age, where most users already interact with the touch screen in their pocket, using your solution will be intuitive, instinctive, fast and easy.

2. Engaging & Interactive

In addition to being simple and clear, touch screen technology can be engaging and interactive. It is far simpler to operate and far more intuitive and engaging than a traditional computer. In fact, they can be so engaging that many customers prefer using them to speaking to a staff member. Just watch customers lining up to use the touch screen ordering system at your local restaurant and preferring to interact with a touch screen than the staff member.

3. Self-Service Features

One of the clearest returns on investment for touch screen projects are in the areas of self service. Whether it is ordering food, selecting products, obtaining information, or  visualising alternatives, it can all be done quickly and efficiently on a touch screen kiosk thereby reducing the need to hire, train and pay staff members.

4. Improve Accessibility

Touchscreen technology is an effective tool for improving accessibility for people with disabilities. Users with impaired eyesight can zoom into digital signage, increase the size of text and images, and choose to have text read out loud. Similarly, those who find it difficult to use a mouse and keyboard might find a touch screen more usable. And our wheelchair accessible kiosks have been designed specifically with the input of health professionals to provide the best possible interactions for wheelchair users.

5. Reduce Staff Costs

Many of our software applications enable businesses to not put on extra staff and to free up existing staff to deal with matters that require face-to-face attention. Our wayfinding solutions enable users to guide themselves to their required destination. Our queuing systems enable them to check themselves in. The virtual receptionist will print out a visitor badge, update records of who is on site, and advise the staff member that their visitor has arrived. Our contractor management system enables contractors to gain site access without staff interaction.

6. 24 x7 service

Many of our solutions are designed to be unattended or lightly attended, meaning that customers can interact with your business themselves with no (or little) staff interaction. And as our touch screens warranty covers 24 hours use, seven days a week for three years, you can be confident that  the solution will work well for you long term.

7. Easy to Clean & Maintain

Touch screen monitors – with their flat bezel free designs and water and dust sealed screens – are easy to keep clean and sterile. This is really important in environments such as restaurants, hotels, hospitals and other healthcare settings.

8. Durability

Our touch screens have toughened glass that is built to withstand constant physical interaction. Whilst not vandal proof, in that it won’t resist a hammer, it is designed to withstand the normal uses in rugged environments and unattended applications that cannot be withstood by other input devices. In particular, our range of industrial touch screens work in harsh conditions and through gloved hands, providing your staff with an uninterrupted workflow in manufacturing environments.

At InTouch Screens, we are able to create modern touchscreen products to suit usage within any sector. We also understand that each business has specific objectives when procuring such technology, and seek to understand those goals to deliver what our clients need on top of the general benefits.
