Manager Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "12+ years and no problems" August 5, 2016 5.0 Pros When I opened my store over 12 years ago, Artisan was the ONLY product that could keep track of my consignment inventory, calculate and print out my artists' statements, and function as a standard POS system. Twelve years later, still using the original software and hardware, I had my first glitch last month. Tech support responded immediately and talked me through the problem in just 15 minutes. I've been doing some research now that there are other programs that claim to do the same, but I am still sure that when it's time to upgrade I will turn to Artisan again. The in house support department can't be matched. I once thought it was pricey, but amortized over 12 years, it's a been great value! Cons There are more features than I use! I honestly can't think of anything else I don't like. Review Source JM Jennifer M. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Certek is an Amazing Company" October 20, 2015 4.5 Pros This POS system makes me appear to have my act together. Any business operating with out a program of this caliber is being irresponsible. Not only is the software impressive, but on the rare occasion when I need to talk with technical support, they are kind, and efficient. Supplies are only a quick phone call away. Being able to provide reports and hard data have made me a better retailer. Cons I wish quick picks were small icons on the sale screen instead of a screen behind. We keep taped to our screen a list of 'flash tags' of best sellers and untagged items, that functions well for us. It replaces the quick pick screen for us. Review Source BD Blake D. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review by Ideal Wedding & Events" October 17, 2015 4.0 Pros The support is unparalleled! When we need assistance with a problem, the support staff is quick to react with a positive and profesional attitude and keep us serving our customers. Cons Sometimes product development or a requested special report seem to take a lot of time to produce. If there is anything I would like to see improve at Certek it would be a timely response and follow up to these special requests. Will 4.0 be available any time soon? Review Source JH Jim H. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Artisan POS is great - we have used it for 5+ years and love it." November 4, 2015 5.0 Pros It keeps track of inventory and prints out sales as well as items remaining in the shop each month when the consignment checks go out. Cons We have a small cafe in the gallery and have added a patch to create sales receipts for it. When we have a group of folks in the cafe and they want to split the bill between two credit cards the only way we have to accommodate that is to print the bill twice and write in one of the names on the ball as they get printed with the first credit card holder's name on both bills. Sometimes very confusing for the patron. Review Source JZ Joanna Z. Owner Wine and Spirits Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good P.O.S" July 14, 2016 4.5 Pros I like the customer service and the easy of use. Customer service is always available. I never had an issue when I needed a question answered or help with the P.O.S. Cons I dislike the interface. It seems a little bit outdated. I also dislike that when there are certain products I decide NOT to carry anymore, there's no way of filtering it when I browse through my inventory to reorder items. The inventory shows all products ones that are discontinued and ones that aren't. Review Source RH Rebekah H. Office Manager Furniture Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It has been a very positive experience. " October 16, 2015 4.5 Pros The customer service has been so helpful. When we have an issue they have been able to explain or fix the problem. Cons Every once in a while we come across a feature that might work better for our store personally, but overall we have not had any complaints. Review Source AS April S. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Artisan POS by Certek" September 5, 2015 4.0 Pros Efficient and easy to use POS system. Certek offers great customer service and is always helpful Cons At times Artisan can seem out of date and limiting, but overall it meets our needs. We wish it was easier to integrate our e-commerce inventory with Artisan Review Source SS Scott S.

July 14, 2017 4.0 Pros I thought the features we're very useful especially for what I was using it for. There were many times that I said wow!
