Colour lookup improved on new paint colour matching software

Latest updates to ColorDesigner PLUS 3.0 provide improved colour lookup, support for all colour dispensing systems and automatic system updates.

Chris Winczewski, Vice President of Product Marketing, X-Rite Pantone commented: “The faster and more accurately a paint department can match a customer’s sample, the more likely it is that the customer will return to the store in the future.”

Winczewski added: “Designed to streamline the process of matching and dispensing paint at the retail counter, ColorDesigner PLUS 3.0 allows paint department associates to spend more time helping customers to ensure that final paint colours match expectations. The software’s latest features help transform a paint counter into a design centre and build customer loyalty.”

ColorDesigner PLUS 3.0 includes:

• Direct management and control of dispensers allowing paint departments to manage both colour matching and dispensing from one system. By seamlessly connecting to all colour dispensing systems, ColorDesigner PLUS 3.0 eliminates the need for a second computer or application, saves time, and optimises counter space.
• Improved colour lookup to help paint associates quickly search the colour collections of both the store and competitive brands to more accurately find paint colours requested by customers. This expanded selection reduces rework and improves customer satisfaction.
• Automatic system updates delivered through a cloud-based infrastructure, allow retailers to have confidence that their software is always up-to-date across the entire store network. The latest colour collections and formulas are automatically updated with no additional effort required from IT to download files or install disks.
