With core features such as point to point navigation, real-time wayfinding and location of assets, visitors to the mall can traverse the mall with ease.

Launched in 2017, the app has been customized for efficient shopping mall management to create a win-win for customers, the retail outlets, as well as the mall management.
“While there are many challenges associated with visitor experience management in shopping malls, technology can resolve most of these as the dependency on mall staff to address multiple issues at the same time reduces. This means that shoppers can have all the information they need on the palm of their hand.” said the CEO of Srisys.
