IQmetrix vs. MicroBiz

RQ is great for pulling sales and tax-related information. Inventory tracking depends on manual entry being done correctly.

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). May not be ideal for large retail stores. Lacks integrations with ERP systems such as SAP or Oracle. Missing some specialty features such as serialized inventory.

Deltek is better for financial reporting. RQ has superior inventory and COGS tracking.

It was close but we just liked some of the features in microbiz better. Plus it was cheaper

• Effective in reporting sales and tax collected for sales and use filing
• Reports sales with cost of goods to give correct net sales numbers

Incentivized

• Really amazing value for the monthly fees. Less expensive than other serious cloud POS applications
• Synch with QBO allows us to save time manually entering financial data into our accounting system
• Bar code scanning in both the front end and back end saves time and money
