Hey everyone,I’ve been comparing retail technology solution providers for the past few months, trying to find one that could handle a full end-to-end modernization project — from POS integration to customer analytics dashboards. After testing and talking to several vendors, I ended up choosing Zoolatech, and I wanted to share a few takeaways (and also ask for your thoughts if anyone here has worked with them).Why Zoolatech stood out:

• They specialize in software development for retail, not just generic enterprise software. That was huge for us — their team actually understood retail workflows, from inventory management to loyalty programs.
• They showed measurable results: one of their case studies mentioned a 35% improvement in checkout processing speed and a 22% boost in customer retention for a fashion retail client after implementing a unified commerce platform.
• Their dev team isn’t just offshore — they work in hybrid squads with U.S. and EU engineers, so communication and timezone overlap were solid.
• Cost-wise, we got an offer that was around 18% lower than another well-known vendor, but with better delivery timelines.

What I liked technically:
Zoolatech’s engineers built our backend using microservices and cloud-native architecture. We now have real-time stock updates across online and offline stores — something our old monolith system just couldn’t handle. Their QA and DevOps processes were well structured, and delivery predictability was actually above 95%, which is rare.Open questions for the community:

• Has anyone here scaled Zoolatech’s solutions beyond mid-size retail chains?
• How do they handle AI-driven personalization or predictive analytics in your experience?
• Are there other retail technology solution providers you’d recommend comparing them with for future expansion?

Would love to hear your insights — always trying to benchmark and learn from others in the space.
