POS systems from the small retailer

A lot of small retailers overlook the importance of having a high quality point of sale system that helps keep track of sales and inventory. Often small retailers want to keep their business as simple as possible and regard relying too much on technology as something of a waste. As a retail analyst, I have met several small retailers who just don't know how to get started installing such as system. I think part of the problem is that a lot of technology sites cater to those who already understand the product and are either familiar with new software and technology or are able to adapt easily.

Sites that cater to those who are unfamiliar with technology and have no interest in knowing too much is where a site like MerchantOS comes in as they make it absolutely simple and straightforward to understand and get started in installing a POS system. The MerchantOS website is informative without an overkill of information on its home page, so if you need more information, you can go into the detail, but if you want the basic gist, you are not going to get lost in the technicalities.

The layout is clean and simple, the font easy to read, making it a site that draws you in without having to dig too deep. I simply love the box that they have on the number of current customers, ongoing sales and locations that continuously gets updated. Another great feature is the section on some current customers, which can be the for the final push to selection. There is a MerchantOS blog too, which is a great way to read company news, tools and tips for running a business. For more details have a look at their POS system prices and product details.
