IntelliTrack WMS was also created using the latest Microsoft development tools to assure compatibility with existing infrastructures.

"IntelliTrack WMS was specifically designed to use PSC RF-enabled portable data entry terminals, so there are virtually no PDT integration costs," said Bill Creekbaum, senior product manager. "Warehouses can quickly realize increased efficiencies, and improved customer service."
