Communicator: Captain, should I send out an armed party?

Well thanks to my Boyfriend I'm now going to be attending Power Morphicon '14 and what better way to commemorate this awesome day than by Buying myself something I have always wanted but just never seemed to get around to getting for one reason or another. So thanks to the Cool and Kind people at Starlight Studios, in what I hope will be a few short days I will be receiving my first Power Rangers Communicator specifically The Black Rangers Communicator. Been wanting one of these for the longest time now and I can now finally own one of my very own and sport it when I am ant PMC '14 next year...if you want to get one of your own follow the link below. http://myworld.ebay.com/starlight.studio?_trksid=p2047675.l2559

I'm on line at a Golden Crust and someone sends me a text message. My phone beeps and it is the Mighty Morphin Power Ranger communicator beep. The little boy behind me on line is about 5 or 6 years old and says to his father "Daddy did you hear that? There's a Power Ranger in here!!"

I should have turned around and said that I was a ranger... He would have crapped his pants.

Narian Technologies has delivered retailers an Android suite of applications and NFC functions to create frictionless in-store experiences for consumers

The strengths of Narian Technologies NFC apps was discussed in our previous post and they were substantial. However, every Superman has his kryptonite and Narian's suite of apps for retailers isn't immune either. That said though, it has opportunities available to it, a place in the market and, of course, threats as with any gap in the market. We continue our editorial style SWOT analysis on Narian Technologies starting with weaknesses.

Narian Technologies Touch & Discover NFC android app suite weaknesses

First, let us say that weaknesses in a product that hasn't reached market are actually opportunities. If we are going to properly analyze Narian Technologies, we have to poke a few holes. We found that the company is attempting to cover a lot of bases rather than creating a niche product that is the absolute best at what it does. In reality, nobody has products that are even alike to Narian's in any of the markets it has chosen or in the services it is providing. But the services were so broad that in an hour and a half interview, we could only cover the main areas of the NFC suite, and that could be confusing and not allow retailers to appreciate the full extent of what is has on offer. When you present a product like Narian's NFC Touch and Discover app suite, retailers won't give you three hours to do so and so the messaging needs to be tightened up with overall features and benefits communicated in a concise and easy to understand manner.

The good, the bad and the ugly of Narian Technologies' suite of NFC-based retail and merchant apps

We told you earlier this week that we would be taking a closer look at Narian Technologies' new suite of NFC apps. Today, we took a spin through the suite with the CEO and in this post intend to share what we have learned. We have to be honest, the breadth of this project is pretty dense and communicating the vastness of what Narian is attempting to do needs to be abridged for a few reasons. As we mentioned, we conducted our research earlier today and when we were finished, left this article for some time to mull over all the possibilities, contingencies, its place in the market and threats to its success. The following represents our findings and to break it down a little, we are going to present it as an old fashioned "SWOT" analysis, without graphs.

A great start would be at the top, and in this case the top is the CEO of the company, Einar Rosenberg.
