Report reveals consumer attitudes

The Self-Service and Kiosk Association (SSKA) has published its 2009 Self-Service Consumer Survey, a comprehensive report that reveals what consumers like and dislike about self-service technology and what they want more of, states Self Service World.

The editorial staff of SSKA, along with research firm Second To None, interviewed more than 1 000 consumers to see how they feel about self-service technology and its various applications.

The report contains the results of the survey, along with more than 45 charts and graphs, as well as expert commentary from various industry voices.

Boomi, a provider in on-demand integration, has added on-demand supply chain integration capabilities to its Boomi AtomSphere cloud integration platform, says Earth Times.

According to Boomi, this is the first and only completely cloud-based, self-service supply chain integration solution in the industry.

Businesses can now exchange supply chain data and manage trading partner relationships without having to install and maintain software or appliances or pay expensive consultants or value-added network fees.

Cineworld has installed Protouch's Xen X5 and X4 self service kiosks into a number of its UK cinemas, states New Electronics.

The self service kiosks are to be used for both Cineworld's Unlimited film programme and for ticket collection.

Cineworld installed the Xen X5 self service kiosks into five of its cinema sites which include Glasgow, West India Queys and Cheltenham in late 2008.
