Today customer traffic statistics is collected by most companies of retail market. Such information allows to track the customer activity and to be quick on the mark to increase the company efficiency. The customer counters, installed at entrance areas of stores and shopping centers, provide valuable information on traffic dynamics and make it possible to analyze the factors, influencing the changes in this parameter.

The customer counters without data analytics, which don’t allow centralized store traffic data acquisition and don’t provide the company with information automatically, can’t be considered to be solutions to complete some serious tasks.

Such data processing can be carried out in different ways – some integrators offer the access to web-analytics, the others send reports in the form of weekly brochures, and the third provide software shell for statistics demonstration.
