Best ETAL Script – Mark Windross of Ring A Till
ETAL sets TouchPoint apart from all other EPoS systems. It is a scripting engine that is built into the till that gives ICRTouch Partners the capability to write bespoke features for the till.
This means that if a customer has a bespoke feature request, it can most often be accomplished.
The Best ETAL Script created by an ICRTouch Partner this year was a unique feature that reworked the programming process. Mark Windross from Ring A Till created a script that can adjust the TouchPoint keyboard layout direct from the till.

Best Forum User – Lee or CCM EPoS
To ensure our partners are able to provide top-level support to all their customers, ICRTouch provide private training for every partner and a technical support department. However, you may not know that ICRTouch has an internal partner forum for all the engineers in the EPoS industry to interact and discuss technical issues with each other.
User ‘ccmlee’ won this award for his selfless ongoing help and advice to other Partners, as well as lending his knowledge of ETAL feature scripting to help Partners create new features for TouchPoint.

Best Online Presence – Panaepos

Panaepos won the award for Best Online Presence this year as they consistently post professional case studies of their installs on social media platforms on a daily basis. They are open with their audience about the great work they do for their clients and explain what software was used and why, always accompanied with great photos and videos.
Best UK Install – Star Pubs & Bars – Microtill
Star Pubs & Bars are the pub group of HEINEKEN with the highest turnover of any national pub group. This year Microtill installed an ICRTouch EPoS solution throughout the pub chain, with TouchOffice Web cloud business management so Head Office could oversee its licensees.
In the latter part of 2019, ICRTouch developed the Pub Group’s Self Service kiosks which have already been introduced into numerous Star pubs & bars with plans to roll out further in 2020. This allows customers over 18 to place orders at the kiosk without a member of bar staff
