StayinFront TouchCG

Overview

StayinFront TouchCG is mobile software for consumer goods teams that sell and execute retail work in stores. It is best suited to organizations whose field representatives need to audit shelves, sell products, take orders and track inventory as part of the same job. Its breadth is useful for that combined workflow, but teams with narrower needs may find it more than they require.

Key features

Reps can conduct detailed shelf audits and surveys, while managers can capture display and promotion compliance. Together, these functions help teams document store conditions and assess whether in-store execution is meeting expectations. They are most relevant when merchandising oversight matters alongside selling, rather than for a team that only needs order entry.

TouchCG brings data and visualizations into in-store sales pitches. Its visual shopping cart supports order taking, and AI-driven Suggested Orders can recommend products when appropriate. This pairing suits reps who need to present and place orders during store visits; teams focused solely on audits may not benefit from the selling tools.

The perpetual inventory module tracks stock across multiple warehouses, lot numbers and expiration dates. That scope is useful for teams managing distributed or date-sensitive inventory, but may be unnecessary for organizations whose field work does not involve stock control. TouchCG can also work with StayinFront Retail Data Insight and the company’s Digital image recognition technologies.

StayinFront solutions support offline work during rural visits, according to a customer testimonial. That can matter where connectivity is unreliable, though the evidence does not establish which specific TouchCG tasks are available offline. StayinFront describes its broader work as supporting field representatives in consumer goods and life sciences with AI and machine learning technology.

Pricing

TouchCG is paid software with custom pricing. Contact StayinFront for pricing or a demo. No plan tiers, seat terms, quotas, trial length or renewal terms are established, so buyers should confirm the commercial arrangement and scope that suits their deployment before committing.

Platforms

TouchCG supports Android and iOS. That covers teams standardizing on either major mobile platform, but organizations requiring a web or desktop platform should confirm whether their workflow can be supported.

Who it's for

TouchCG is aimed at consumer goods sales representatives, managers, merchandisers, van sales and direct store delivery teams. It is a stronger fit for organizations combining retail execution with in-store selling, order capture and inventory management than for teams seeking only a single-purpose merchandising or sales tool.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Combines audits, compliance capture, selling, order entry and inventory tracking for teams that want connected field workflows.
• Suggested Orders and a visual cart support reps taking orders in stores.
• Multi-warehouse, lot and expiration tracking addresses more complex inventory needs.
• Offline capabilities can help field teams working in rural areas.

Cons

• Custom pricing requires a sales conversation before buyers can assess cost.
• Android and iOS are the stated platforms, which may not suit teams that need a web-based field workflow.
• The broad feature set may be excessive for organizations focused only on audits or compliance.

Alternatives

Consider Retail Execution Software to compare options across the category. Movista is a paid alternative with Android, iOS, API and web platforms; it may suit teams that need web access or an API alongside mobile. ZenOwn Shelf Compliance AI is paid and supports Android, iOS and web, making it an option for buyers who want web support. MC1 Retail Execution is another paid option with Android, iOS and web platforms. Trax Retail is paid and supports iOS, web and API. Neurolabs ZIA, Pensa Systems and Shelfr are paid alternatives with Android, iOS and web platforms. Repsly is paid, has no free plan or trial, and offers Core features including representative database, account management, scheduling, basic forms, standard reporting and API access; consider it when those listed field-team functions are the priority.

Verdict

Choose StayinFront TouchCG if your consumer goods field teams need one mobile workflow spanning store execution, selling, orders and inventory. Its main advantage is that breadth, including stock tracking across warehouses and offline capabilities for rural work. Look elsewhere if you need web access or a narrower tool, and request custom pricing before deciding whether its scope fits your budget.
