Without software, computer hardware devices would be as good as dead. Thus, computer software gives the entire system life. When it comes to POS systems, all devices take instructions about what to do and how to do it from installed POS software. Therefore, the choice of software for your POS system determines efficiency of the whole arrangement.
Software designers have come up with both tailored and general software to address POS needs. General software does not address specific needs of your organization and may lack important features such as credit card processing. Even if you are unwilling to contract software developers to design a specific program for your organization, you may still go for general software that can easily be customized at end-user level to satisfy your business requirements.
Go for POS software that accepts credit card transactions to eliminate need for two receipting systems. At the same time, you may want to get a program that can easily integrate with accounting systems of your business. For instance, if you use quick books for all your accounting tasks, you may want to have it integrated with your POS system for harmonious record keeping in your organization.
User-friendliness is always a primary concern for successful implementation of a POS system. How good is the software’s user-interface? Is it clumsy or are the commands conveniently placed? In addition, think about what would happen when you wish customize the software for your specific user requirements. Would you easily pull it off on your own or call support for help? A good software product is self explanatory when it comes to minor tasks.
