Register Screen - Ring Up Sales Quickly and Easily. Quickly scan items into the register using bar codes – or add items with one touch. Discount individual items, groups of items or the entire transaction. You can do price checks and check inventory. It’s so intuitive that employees will be able to use the POS application with almost no training.

The keys can be set to prompt for the price or the size or color of an item. You can set up an unlimited number of Quick Pick Panels, use colors to highlight keys and arrange them in any order that you choose.

Customer Order Dashboard - Manage Layaways, Work Orders, Deliveries and Phone Orders. Use the Orders in Progress capabilities in MicroBiz to manage layaways, phone orders and orders in progress. You can collect a deposit and set whether the order will be fulfilled via store pick-up, shipment or delivery.

Product Record - Simple and Matrix Products and Flexible Pricing Schemes. Products records are critical to a retail system – as the sale of products and services drives revenue. Our product records make your job easier by offering all kinds of flexibility and capabilities around product type (simple products, matrix products, prompt for price, services, etc) and pricing strategies (discounts, promotions, customer-based pricing, quantity-based pricing).

Customer Orders - Manage sales of items not taken immediately from store. You can attach a customer, change status. Set a due date, define a handling type, print pick-up slips and add notes. Customer orders can be transferred to the register so that payment can be made and ‘cash and carry’ items can be sold on the same receipt.

Credit account records display all charges to the accounts, payments on balances and authorized user activity.

Auto Stock Replenishment - MicroBiz automates your ordering process by defining targeted reorder points and restock levels for products. You can add automatically add quantities to purchase order based on current inventory as compared to desired restock levels, historical sales of the item over a set time period or a specific order amount.

Special Orders - Manage sales of items not in stock that need to be special ordered from vendor. Special order items are grouped so that they can be quickly added to a vendor purchase order. Special order items are tagged through the ordering and fulfillment process, so that they can be treated differently than standard items in purchase orders and vendor shipments.

Register Sales Dashboard - MicroBiz Cloud includes a register sale dashboard which displays transactions on hold and closed register transactions. This is useful to look-up transactions by date range, store, register or employee.

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 and Cons

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)

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

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.

Pros and Cons

Ring up transactions and take payments
Manage inventory
Management Reporting
Discounts and promotions

There are no free loyalty solutions
Better integration with Magento - limited to Magento 1
Product import tools are flexible but tough to use

Likelihood to Recommend

Great for retail stores that want to manage inventory. Great for stores that want to have different prices for different types of customers.
