TechTalk: SuperSolver & iBeacon Technology
Big thanks to Rungson Samroengraja of SuperSolver who delivered a great TechTalk last week!

UP NEXT: TechTalk – SuperSolver
The next in Boyle Software’s series of TechTalks will be a look at the technology behind SuperSolver, a recently developed and released free app that allows for unprecedented and anonymous communication between consumers and businesses. “SuperSolver is part of the new category of shopper apps [that] may be the retailers’ best tool yet,” wrote Forbes magazine in a piece from this past January, “Customers can use shopper apps to discover what’s in the store. SuperSolver acts like a butler; it is unobtrusive yet helpful.”
