Definitely works well for any furniture company that wants one program that will help almost every aspect of your company run more smoothly. There is a learning curve to learn all of the functions and reports to take full advantage of all of the things RETAILvantage can do, but you will start seeing your business run more smoothly right away. The other nice things about RETAILvantage is that they have recently been partnering with other technologies to help the entire business, i.e. a truck scheduling technology, a review technology, a website company, etc
Square for retail is great to use alongside WooCommerce to accept credit card payments on your e-commerce website.
Square for Retail works with a very easy to use card scanner that works with your phone, so it is great if you are selling items at an event like a conference, a farmers market, or an art fair. It is very easy and useful for the small business person who wants easy credit card processing either in person or online.
Keeping track of inventory- making POs, receiving, and tracking any movement of the inventory.
Keeping track of all customer's purchases- it keeps all sales for 8-10 years in the history.
Keeping all of our customer's information organized, you can print out reports by purchases within a date range and can even do it by categories or vendors they purchased.
It is not an accounting program, it does simple accounting reports and actions but it doesn't do some things in detail so we have to manually do a few entries.
RETAILvantage is constantly updating and making changes to improve based on customer input.
This may just be me, but I want some additional customizations for our biggest annual fundraiser, so that we can differentiate between donations, chance drawings, etc.
Square for Retail offers just about everything that the competitors offered, and does so with a more attractive, all-inclusive package. We chose Square for Retail due to the myriad of plugins available, from Dashboard to Appointments, to Estimates and Invoicing, Square for Retail provides just about everything we could hope for, with a predictable, and reasonable bill attached. From the predictability of our period's processing fees to the flexibility of the software and all of [its] possible plugins, Square for Retail was the obvious winner.
