CORESense released a full suite of new retail management features for single store and chain specialty apparel and footwear retailers. The company said it is the first and only retail management software solution to deliver a grid-based management and reporting as well as other features demanded by specialty footwear and apparel retailers in a fully integrated software-as-a-service solution.

CORESense CEO Chris Martin said, "Historically, access to a fully integrated end-to-end multi-channel retail management system capable of creating a competitive advantage was affordable only to larger big-box retailers. Small to medium-sized retailers (SMRs) simply couldn't compete. With this release, CORESense has eliminated this gap."

The new release adds support for the efficient creation and management of products in a grid or matrix format including product/sku creation, purchasing, replenishment, stock transfers, inventory management and reporting. It is currently in Beta with a specialty retailer and is being implemented by two multi-store chains. It will be generally available early in 2010.
