DRB vs ISI w/Unitec Sentinel

Hello I am currently building a new Flex serve site with dual pay lanes and RFID and debating between ISI and DRB, I like all of the marketing capabilities of DRB but they are more expensive and I really don't like that DRB charges a premium for there product and then forces you to use there payment card processor. Which in turn I believe they receive kickbacks. ISI seems to have a good offering with there software integrated into the Unitec Sentinel, I am curious if anyone else has compared the two also the tunnel controller is a rTC from ISI.

Success is best measured by trip generation and profitability, not cost efficiency.

The multi wash purchase is a nice marketing option. But I have no idea what the theory is about "Trip generation and profitability, not cost efficiency."
For instance why would "Trip generation and Profitability" and "cost efficiencey" be mutualy exclusive.

It is not a theory, it is an observation of fact.

For instance, if you have a wash with eight or less functions, I don’t believe it is possible to beat the cost efficiency of a Datatrax.

On the other hand, if you have a flexible service wash like Triple Play (a multiple facilities carwash), you need capacities and contingencies.

If pay stations malfunction, staff has the ability to switch to hand-held transponders to keeping on selling and washing, critical in a high volume wash.

I could go on but a conversation with the good folks at DRB, like Ken Brott, would be a more efficient alternative.

OK, so maybe "theory" was the wrong word, which I used because I do not understand your "Thought" / "Buzzword"

Perhaps you could explain the principal of "Trip Generation and Profitability" and why it seems to exclude "Cost Efficiency"

BTW, I operate 4 EE's with Datatrax (32 Function) and DRBs.
