What is Microsoft Cloud for Retail?
Microsoft Cloud for Retail is a set of cloud-based tools and services designed specifically for retailers to connect their customers, their frontline and corporate teams, and their data in one environment. By bringing these elements together, retailers can reimagine how they manage the end-to-end shopper journey—from discovery and browsing, through purchase, to post-sale service.
With Microsoft Cloud for Retail, organizations can:
- Connect customer interactions across channels so experiences feel more consistent.
- Give store associates and corporate teams shared access to relevant information.
