RetailEdge is a point of sale solution with features such as inventory management, customer relationship management, and mobile deplyoment.
Propello is user-friendly for the average store associate for a basic sale. Some basic inventory functions and product inquiries are not too difficult for store associates. But beyond that, in my experience, the system lacks functionality for a Hardware and Lumber store that handles special orders, services, etc. And the data needed to make business decisions is not easy to obtain, with some of it impossible to get unless you purchase an additional program from them.

Many of our competitors were franchised base or a "factory store" meaning they HAD to use a specific software. This could be nice, but also very intrusive, in that they saw everything you were doing and could dictate what/when/how you ordered merchandise. So this is good for the independent retailer who does not need or have access to something created at a large corporate level.

Like any complex program there were bells and whistles that were bundled and only available if you paid for a better package.
Tech Support was paid for on an annual plan and even though we rarely needed it, the few occasions I did have to call (never during regular working hours of course) I wan't a "gold" member and therefore had to pay or wait or both

Epicor Propello has significant potential but setup and training create anchors to moving forward. Mobile POS is useful and can improve productivity. Setup and methodology are a barrier to taking advantage of this component. Some features have been missing and are still in release phases. Updates are necessary to make the software more comprehensive. Usability is limited to how the end user is setup and trained.

Lightspeed had consistent issues with the software being down and little to no support. It also didn't have easy functionality to receive orders via a mobile device. Epicor Propello's team is very receptive to feedback and has made changes we suggested.

It knew a lot more about the retail process than I did. For instance, I knew I should look at sell through reports, but did not know how to run them or read them. Their tutorials were very helpful
Even though I complained about the tech support, their user base forums were great for knowledge and trouble shooting and seemed to be well proctored by the comapny as well.
