The different between customer pole display and LCD customer monitor?

The customer pole display and LCD customer monitor are both used in point-of-sale (POS) systems to enhance the customer experience, but they differ significantly in functionality, design, and usage. Here’s a comparison:

1. Display Type:

• Customer Pole Display: Typically features simple text or character-based displays (e.g., 20 columns × 2 or 20 columns × 4 lines). These can either use fluorescent or monochrome LCD panels, and they are usually smaller in size (like 2-line displays). They are designed mainly to show transaction information, such as the price and total amount.
• LCD Customer Monitor: This is a full graphic display with higher resolutions (e.g., 800×480 or higher). It can show not only text but also images, videos, and promotional content. LCD monitors are more versatile and capable of displaying more detailed information.

2. Content Customization:

• Customer Pole Display: Limited to basic text or characters. It usually supports only simple alphanumeric information (price, item names, transaction details). You can customize how many lines or columns to display, but overall, the content remains simple.
• LCD Customer Monitor: Fully customizable and capable of displaying rich media. Businesses can show images, animations, videos, advertisements, loyalty program information, and promotions, in addition to transaction details.

3. Form Factor:

• Customer Pole Display: Mounted on a pole or stand, positioned at the checkout counter. It’s compact and less visually intrusive. The display is small and primarily designed for showing transactional data.
• LCD Customer Monitor: Larger and often mounted behind the checkout counter or on a stand. These displays are usually more prominent and can be used as digital signage to engage customers with marketing content, besides just showing transaction data.

4. Purpose:

• Customer Pole Display: Primarily used to show real-time transaction information, such as item prices and totals. It’s intended to increase customer confidence by allowing them to double-check the prices during the transaction.
• LCD Customer Monitor: In addition to transaction information, these monitors can display advertisements, promotional videos, or additional business information. It’s used for marketing, customer engagement, and upselling products.

5. Cost:

• Customer Pole Display: Generally more affordable due to its simpler design and limited functionality.
• LCD Customer Monitor: More expensive due to its larger screen, higher resolution, and multimedia capabilities.

6. Interface:

• Customer Pole Display: Often uses legacy interfaces like RS232 or USB, and it’s specifically designed for transactional displays with limited data transfer needs.
• LCD Customer Monitor: Typically uses more advanced interfaces like HDMI, VGA, or USB, and may offer touchscreen functionality, allowing interaction with customers.

7. Usage Scenario:

• Customer Pole Display: Ideal for small retail shops, restaurants, or grocery stores where only simple price display and transaction information are needed.
• LCD Customer Monitor: Suited for larger stores, businesses looking to increase customer engagement through digital marketing, or those with more complex POS needs.

Summary:

• Customer Pole Display: Basic, text-based, smaller, and ideal for simple price display.
• LCD Customer Monitor: Rich media, larger, and suitable for showing promotional content, images, and video.

If you’re looking for something to display detailed media and enhance customer engagement, an LCD customer monitor is the way to go. If you need a more compact, affordable solution for just showing prices and transaction info, a customer pole display is sufficient.
