Hobart Introduces Latest in Fleet Management with New HTe Software

by Katie Lee

Troy, Ohio — Hobart has introduced the newest edition of HTe Enterprise Asset Scale Management Software. HTe Enterprise is the latest in fleet management and offers several new features. Hobart’s HTe Enterprise improves efficiency, reduces downtime and increases profitability all from the convenience of a desktop PC.

This web-based tool is a software package for retailers to directly manage their scale fleets and lends itself to a multi-user experience in grocery environments. In today’s grocery stores, scales are all connected devices and require firmware updates, configuration updates and updates to the item (PLU) information such as pricing and nutritional data. The HTe Enterprise software package bridges the gap between customers’ PLU management systems and the Hobart HT scales.

What makes this software unique in the industry is that the HTe connected scales will “heartbeat” (communicate) to the server and pull the latest, most updated data through a self-synchronizing feature. Typically, fleet managers must schedule and push updates to scales — which is a manual process and requires scheduling around other planned events. With the scale heartbeat, each scale syncs automatically, saving time and increasing department efficiency. Also, if a scale falls offline for any reason — as soon as it reconnects to the network, it will heartbeat to the server to be immediately updated to stay in compliance.

With each transaction, there is a live sync with the server allowing the scale to pull the latest PLU data instantaneously, reducing pricing errors and increasing profitability. Changes in the PLU database are automatically updated at the scale for each transaction.

Designed and created in the United States, HTe Enterprise software provides an industry benchmark for accuracy and reliability with advanced features designed to keep operations running smoothly.
