What is daVinci Buying Software?

daVinci Buying software is a retail planning solution designed to eliminate individual spreadsheets on users’ desktops, which are error-prone and inaccessible to other parts of the organization. daVinci Buying is a collaborative platform that unifies all buy plans into a highly intuitive, merchant-centric cloud application backed by a centralized enterprise database. daVinci’s retail management system provides visibility to open to buy and to the individual merchant level to any summary level to provide a 360o view of your business in real-time. daVinci Buying transforms how retailers manage their buying process by improving efficiencies, so merchants can get back time to be merchants.
