Overall Satisfaction with Aralco Inventory Management

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
  • Short training time reduced costs and increased sales which increased ROI
  • Less downtime which reduced costs and increased ROI
  • Good customer support which boosts employee morale which leads to efficiencies and higher sales which increased ROI

Aralco Inventory Management is well suited for a retail operation with one or two locations that is expanding to 5+. At that point, there is small enough start-up costs and significant benefits available for this software to assist a company with the inventory and POS challenges associated with rapid growth.

Aralco Inventory Management is also particularly helpful for retail companies that have complicated sales orders or a sales fulfillment time that is longer than a day or a week.
