Lightspeed Retail | TrustRadius

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it as our Point of Sale system, and to keep records. We also use it to reconcile Inventory levels every 6 months. It is only used in the retail area of our Animal Shelter. LightSpeed keeps us much more in tune with our stock and sales, and we no longer have to have an outside Inventory company.

Simple stock check-in.
