Perfect software when your retail business grows to multiple locations
Aralco Inventory Management is used across the organization I consulted with for inventory control, point of sale and back office data processing. Specifically, the organization is a large furniture and home goods retailer with approximately two dozens stores across various jurisdictions. The organization has locations that are mostly single-user or single-register systems and a few larger locations that support multi-register operations.
- Retail focus
- Single source for all inventory control requirements
- Power-to-cost ratio
- Training package
- Lengthy set-up process that requires strong management
- High base hardware requirements (can't be used with just a phone, for instance)
- Inventory forecasting is not linked to any external or macro forces
