Differentiation between Prestige and Prestigeenterprise

Prestige was developed as a multi-format printing software in the early 1990s. The desktop-based standard software offers the creation of poster and layout templates in different formats. The positions of article, price and text fields are defined and graphics and images are integrated.

In 2004 this software was further developed as a web-based platform. This created the basis for complex multichannel marketing at the POS. This software not only enables the printing of POS media, but also the distribution of digital content such as offers, pictures and videos. Possible output devices include screens, kiosk systems, scales and cash registers, as well as mobile devices.
