Key Benefits

Outstanding System Performance Thanks to revolutionary 360 RF technology, the EVOLVE EAS systems detection performance stands head and shoulders above all previous systems. Using a rotating RF field not only improves accuracy by relying less on the orientation of the EAS tag, but also allows retailers to have wider aisles. As a result, retailers benefit from a more attractive store environment while improving their security levels. Combine EVOLVE with some of Checkpoints other state-of-the-art EAS innovations like Checkpoint RF Specialty Labels, Enhanced Performance Labels, and Checkpoint Accessories and increase the performance of your shrink management system beyond imagination. Benefits: Greater accuracy Best possible ability to protect even the smallest items Optimal coverage in aisles, entrances and exits with fewer antennas Attractive store environments Full System Connectivity EVOLVE adds versatility and profitability to shrink management in a number of ways. All products, for instance, work on the same platform: antennas and deactivators share one electronic design. TCP/IP addressable devices, Ethernet communication, and FTP server capabilities streamline processes and ensure that existing retail IT systems and the EVOLVE platform communicate smoothly and securely. Whats more, the new system is fully compatible with a range of accessories, such as a bidirectional system to count people (VisiPlus), a software-driven EAS compliance tool (CheckPro Manager), and Checkpoints comprehensive line of tags and accessories. Benefits: Seamless interconnection of key components Increased system reliability Maximum reliability and operation Accurate store data for proactive decisions Enriched Data Connectivity Representing the next step in EAS development,EVOLVE moves from an EAS system to an open-architecture shrink management solution for more efficient, precise shrink management. Using well-established technical standards such as TCP/IP addressing for Internet-based communication and Ethernet for in-store networking allows retailers to update software more quickly and cost-effectively, export data to back-office systems for data analysis and create a comprehensive, more strategic retail information system. Using EVOLVE couldnt be simpler, especially for loss prevention departments. It offers seamless EAS data integration for IT managers and provides faster service capabilities for store operations. Benefits: Easily connects to other data management devices Smoothly integrates with existing retail IT systems Familiar TCP/IP for retail IT departments Leverages LP data with other retail data for broader analysis Improved Investment Protection EVOLVE represents true investment protection: it is designed as a platform for expansion. Expansion can include improvements to the function/performance of the current system, or the addition of new functions through a combination of hardware and firmware upgrades. For example, improving the detection algorithms would simply require a firmware upgrade. The addition of SAM capability through the use of sensors, or upgrading the detection to include RFID capability, would involve the addition of hardware plus a firmware upgrade. EVOLVEs flexible design and new technologies will easily enable future enhacements to the system. Benefits: Extends product life Provides software upgrades simply and easily Easily upgrades to EPC/RFID applications Reduced Cost of Ownership EVOLVEs advanced technology ensures that operating costs are kept to a minimum for the products lifetime. Standardized and regular service via remote access leads to fewer on-site visits, due to continuous upgrades providing ongoing preventative maintenance. Connectivity and diagnostics ultimately save time and service calls, so that the EVOLVE EAS system always performs to the highest standards, while the number of service calls is greatly reduced. EVOLVE protects retailers EAS investments by supporting transitions to new technologies and functionalities by enabling cost-efficient, quick and easy software or hardware upgrades. Benefits: Reduces site maintenance visits and costs Provides automatic preventive maintenance Guarantees minimal system downtime by delivering optimized remote maintenance Adapts to retailers specific security requirements Enhanced System Integrity EVOLVE offers a new level of system integrity never before seen in EAS security. By improving detection rates, improving system integrity and integrating loss prevention analytics with other essential in-store information, EVOLVE gives retail store employees greater confidence in the systems accuracy and responsiveness. As a result, retail staff is more efficient and can focus on what matters most: helping customers. At the same time, greater confidence in the system ensures better employee responses to alarms and improved merchandise security. A highly advanced EAS solution, EVOLVE is a system that can be tailored to the security needs of individual retailers. Benefits: Fits seamlessly into existing retail processes Facilitates staff compliance with security policies Increases employee confidence in the system; builds trust in EAS Delivers a higher level of theft deterrence
