Great POS Software for Small and Mid Sized Retailers!
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use MicroBiz to run our retail store (golf store). This includes everything from the front register, pricing management, payment processing, inventory management and purchasing/receiving. This is our core store management system, and we could not operate without it. We do use QuickBooks online and MailChimp, and both work well with MicroBiz.
Pros
- Ringing up sales (bar code scanning, discounts, returns, holds, voids, split tenders)
- Inventory management, including matrix products
- Reporting (it has many filters and settings to help drill into information)
Cons
- Missing a couple helpful features (such as a free loyalty program)
- The formatting on some screens is whacky and the font can be small
- It could be easier to email receipts (need to set this before the transaction)
Likelihood to Recommend
<p>Suitable for small and mid sized retail businesses. Many features to automate operations (bar code scanning throughout application, auto generate POS based on mix/max, stock look-up).</p><p>May not be ideal for large retail stores.
