Nexus MX (Mobile eXchange)
Nexus MX is an off-site solution for travelling scrap purchases. It can be run on a laptop, tablet, or in a truck mounted solution. It can do everything Nexus TSi can, however, it does not require internet or any network connection to operate.
Data is seamlessly transferred between a Nexus MX system and the yard when connectivity is available again.
Nexus MX can connect to truck-mounted scales and cameras and can capture drivers licenses, pictures of materials, print receipts, and pay customers -- 100% compliant with state laws.

Landfill / Construction Demolition Solutions
Unattended Check-In
Nexus has an integrated system for running your unmanned landfill, construction/demolition truck scale. Simply configure which customers are allowed to use this feature, set up trucks and drivers for that customer and when they pull on the scale, they only need to enter their truck number.
Nexus weighs the vehicle in and out automatically, taking pictures of materials, creating/updating scale tickets, adjusting inventory and readying the customer for payment (whether they owe, or you owe).
The software is extremely easy to use and requires absolutely no human intervention.

Barcode Scanner
Nexus uses our own proprietary methods for extracting data from drivers license barcodes. Once a customer comes in and has their barcode scanned, all information is put into Nexus instantly. This step speeds up the entire customer selection process and eliminates all entry errors. Other software packages rely solely on OCR (optical character recognition) technology to read in customer data automatically, but those methods are only about 72% accurate. Nexus's barcode scanning technology is 100% accurate and fail safe. Every time.

Nexus Advantage
One of the best things about Nexus is that it is NOT cloud based.
Most people by now are familiar with cloud based technologies being used in their daily lives. The cloud is great in many aspects, particularly for syncing files, photos and sharing information.
However, when you are dealing with mission critical software, choosing cloud-based can be a horrible idea. It is slow, unreliable and ocassionally not secure.
If you use cloud-based software and your internet is experiencing issues (which is typical for rural & industrial locations), then your business is down.
If you are using cloud-based software and either it, or any of it's servers are using is experiencing issues, your business is down.
If the company who made your cloud-based software goes out of business, your business is down. To make matters worse, you not only lose your financial investment on that product completely as it vanishes from the cloud, all of your data goes with it.
With Nexus, the server software and data are hosted on YOUR HARDWARE or servers that we can provide.
You do not need internet access to run Nexus, so if your internet goes out, Nexus will continue to work flawlessly.
With Nexus, you host your own data, so no one can "peek" at your customers sensitive information or at your financial information and share or sell it to anyone else.
Cloud-based software, however, runs at your internet bandwidth throughput speed.
Testing your internet speed (click here) is essential to learning what to expect from a cloud-based software program.
Take that number (typically around 2-20mbps) and compare it with your local network link speed (which is what Nexus runs at), which is typically 1,000mbps; the speed and efficency of Nexus just cannot be matched.
How does Nexus' speed stack up against cloud-based software? Take a look for yourself:
