Epicor Software
Corporation
(NASDAQ: EPIC) a
leading provider
of enterprise
business
software
solutions for
the midmarket
and divisions of
Global 1000
companies, today
announced the
Metropolitan
Opera has
selected the
Epicor Retail
Software as a
Service (SAAS)
solution to
provide the Met
Opera Shop with
systemic
infrastructure
and software to
help drive
retail
operations.
The Met,
celebrating its
125th
anniversary this
year, has been a
vibrant home to
the world's most
creative and
talented
artists,
including
singers,
conductors,
composers,
orchestra
musicians, stage
directors,
designers,
visual artists,
choreographers,
and dancers.
Each season the
Met stages more
than two hundred
opera
performances in
New York,
drawing
audiences of
more than
800,000, while
millions more
experience the
Met through
advanced new
media
distribution
initiatives and
state-of-
the-art
technology.
To support a
newly renovated
retail store
within the
Metropolitan
Opera House, the
Met sought a
robust retail
solution that
would easily
integrate with
existing
technology and
enable the
retail team to
run its
operations as
efficiently and
effectively as
possible.
The Epicor
Retail SaaS
offering, which
delivers
Epicor's
acclaimed Store,
Merchandising,
Audit &
Operations
Management, and
CRM modules,
addressed those
needs.
"We're honored
to be involved
with the Met to
help strengthen
its retail
operations,"
said David
Henning,
executive vice
president and
general manager
for Epicor
Retail.
"Our SaaS model
is ideal for
organizations
such as the Met
that need a
proven solution
that offers low
total cost of
ownership,
coupled with
access to a team
of technology
and retail
industry
experts.
