Telemetry

The transformational power of real-time data

At the core of our vending service is our real-time data collection telemetry system that allows you to monitor sales and performance remotely from your desk. This means that our vending stations are linked to the cloud to give us real-time access to what’s going on inside your vending machines, covering sales, stock and performance. This is truly what makes our smart vending machines smart. This live data output delivers a host of benefits;

telemetry dashboard

Our telemetry system is installed as standard for our fully managed refreshment services allowing us live and remote access to our equipment. This is the optimal way to run a modern unattended retail business across remote locations. Our clients are also provided with a login to give them access to all the data for equipment we operate at their sites.

For self-managing clients, you too can have this smart technology! Livewell will install and set up the telemetry box inside your equipment and provide you the software and training to allow you easy access to live data. You will be able to run reports to reconcile revenue with stock and explore trends and performance over time to allow you to maximise sales.

  2. Real-time stock status to assist with refill scheduling
  3. Alerts for errors and events to minimise downtime
