March Networks, a global video security and video-based business intelligence solutions provider firm, is pleased to announce the integration of its Searchlight for Retail software with Cova, the point-of-sale (POS) software system designed specifically for cannabis dispensaries.
Cova POS platform
The integration enables cannabis businesses using the Cova POS platform to improve performance
The integration enables cannabis businesses using the Cova POS platform to improve performance and profitability with Searchlight’s video-based business intelligence. Through its unique combination of surveillance video, POS transaction data and analytics, Searchlight helps retailers gather transformative insights on customer service, operations and promotional efforts. It also alerts businesses to suspect transactions, like frequent voids or unusual discounts, and ties all POS transactions to surveillance video for rapid investigation.
“Combining Searchlight’s transaction reporting and business intelligence capabilities with Cova’s POS platform gives cannabis dispensaries one complete solution for sales transactions, loss prevention, business optimization and compliance,” said Jeff Corrall, Director of Strategic Partnerships and Integrations, March Networks.

These connected platforms provide visibility and context that helps operators make confident decisions with peace of mind,” said Cohen. “We’re excited to work with partners like March Networks, who share Cova’s commitment to help retailers simplify compliance and gain the insights they need to grow their business.”
Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags
Tailor-made for the cannabis industry, Cova POS is used by more than 500 cannabis stores
Tailor-made for the cannabis industry, Cova POS is used by more than 500 cannabis stores. It incorporates features like an age verification scanner and purchasing limits to help retail dispensaries comply with state/provincial and federal regulations on cannabis sales. The platform is also fully integrated with leading seed-to-sale traceability systems in the U.S.
March Networks’ solution for cannabis operators also helps with seed-to-sale tracking and compliance by correlating data from radio frequency identification (RFID) tags with surveillance video in Searchlight. In states like Colorado, where RFID tagging from seed to sale is mandated by law, Searchlight allows cannabis operators to search for tagged product by date, time, product code or serial number and pull up the associated surveillance video.
Cannabis supply solutions
Searchlight is part of March Networks complete solution for cannabis operators. The solution covers all stages of the cannabis supply chain including cultivation, testing, retail sales and secure delivery. Leading cannabis businesses, including two of the largest cannabis companies in the world, currently use March Networks.
