Northwoods Software delivers web-based planogram solution

September 27, 2011

Northwoods Software announced that it has delivered Hillman Planogrammer Version 1.0 to The Hillman Group Inc. Hillman Planogrammer is a web-based planogram software package that allows salespeople to design retail store displays for their customers, according to the company.

"We are quite pleased to be using the state of the art in planogramming technology with our new Hardware Essentials Builder's Hardware line," said Terry Showalter, senior product manager for Hillman. "This new technology has several key features that we believe puts us leaps and bounds ahead of the competition."

Hillman Planogrammer is a customized version of Northwoods' GoPlanogram software technology. Today Northwoods also announced the availability of customization of the technology for new customers.

GoPlanogram software allows ordinary computer users to design retail store displays using their Internet browser, without the need to install software. Despite running in a browser, this new technology has rapid drag-and-drop performance because GoPlanogram is based on Microsoft's Silverlight technology, which provides high interactivity for web-based solutions.
