5.0

Carolyn I.: Hi, my name is Carolyn. I'm the president of a music school. I'd like to give Rain POS a five out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Before using Rain POS, I used QuickBooks POS, which we used for about six or seven years. I found that it took too much memory and it was syncing with our QuickBooks Database and it got way too expensive. I chose Rain POS because they were a startup company at the time, and they were marketing a software that both provided for POS, on a remote for a remote customer, as well as in-person customer, as well as a website. I liked that they had that dual interface for remote customers and in-person. But what I came to find out was that being able to control our own website in a very user-friendly way was one of the biggest assets for us. Getting onboarded with Rain POS wasn't completely easy. I think it took some time to get used to, but once we started working on it and getting used to the system and calling the customer support many, many times, I think we got into a place where we were all comfortable using the system. So it wasn't easy, but it paid off. In the end, we were able to really benefit from the system. I would tell someone to give Rain a try. Keep your old software going in case it doesn't work, but I think you'll find it to be a very good option. So give it a try.
