IDC MarketScape Report 2025
The IDC MarketScape report evaluates vendors based on their proven presence in fashion retail, with enterprise-ready mPOS platforms supporting key functions like clienteling, inventory, and loyalty. To qualify, vendors need a multinational footprint and solutions designed for flexibility, unified data, and AI integration. The focus in this report is on technologies that enhance both customer experience and store associate productivity. The report noted, “When it comes to technology, mPOS/POS platform vendors have significantly evolved their offerings in recent years, especially in areas of cloud-based flexible, composable architecture; unified data with built-in AI; omni-channel applications; and more associate-friendly solutions.”
The report noted, “the platform is built with extensive configuration options and fashion-specific logic, such as matrix item handling and real-time inventory visibility across variants. Its mobile POS solution supports a wide variety of fashion retail formats — from fast-moving, affordable fashion to high-end luxury brands — offering the flexibility to meet different customer engagement models, including clienteling and concierge-level service.”
“GK Mobile POS is particularly well suited for enterprise-size organizations that require strong support for matrix-rich product catalogs (size, color, style variations), intuitive associate tools for clienteling and personalized selling, and seamless omni-channel execution, including endless aisle, BOPIS, and flexible returns”, the report states.
