MATRA's FREEDOM software suite is designed to facilitate modern retail environments - from quick service and fine dining to ticketing, general retail and website sales. FREEDOM addresses a retailer's need to balance customer service with security, multi-channel initiatives with costs, and a system's sophistication with its reliability.

Security

MATRA's software is built upon a secure infrastructure using industry standard secure data protection. The FREEDOM-e-Pay application has proven PCI compliance for cardholder safety.

Cost Effectiveness

FREEDOM software's greater performance leads to more sales, and the convenience of payment options promotes spending. With seamless offline operation, downtime is virtually eliminated. Proven to scale to very large installations, FREEDOM is a wise investment for growing or changing companies. MATRA releases software updates twice yearly to keep customers up to date, and offers standards-based interfaces to third-party solutions. Maintenance costs are kept in check with advanced monitoring, alerting and diagnostic systems built right in. Training costs are also lower, as one intuitive application is all employees need to learn.

Reliability

In addition to internal process controls, FREEDOM has been designed to be resilient against failures we cannot control such as network outages and server failures. FREEDOM applications use intelligent clients to complete transactions even if the server is down, queuing data until the server is back online. FREEDOM-SERVER can run in a clustered environment for full redundancy, and FREEDOM-ePay is designed with host fail-over support in case one of the payment hosts is down and an alternative host is available.

The four programs in MATRA's FREEDOM software suite can be combined as needed to accommodate any retail environment:
