Case study: Heron Foods creates consistency and confidence across stores

“When customers come in we can easily talk to another teammate or use the AI feature to find a product and look up the price and information on it. Everyone is using the headsets. It’s been a great move to be able to talk to each other instead of having to yell to one another across the store.”
