You need advanced tools to stay competitive among newer and bigger businesses. A well-implemented POS system will help you achieve this. Listed below are some of the benefits of installing a POS system at your retail store: - **Faster delivery of operations:** A retailer has to manage multiple operations such as purchasing materials, dispatching goods, daily staffing, managing appointments, and processing payments. Traditionally, you needed multiple registers and numerous staff to enter all these details in respective files. But now, retailers can record all the information in a single POS system and save time. They are also able to better staff their employees, accurately bill customers for purchases, and execute check-out faster. - **Efficient inventory management:** The current POS systems can easily handle multiple stock inventories for multiple stores. This allows businesses to be aware of the available stock and they can set reordering triggers so that they never run out of stock. Modern POS systems are even capable of analyzing purchase history and providing recommendations for the next purchase. - **Exhaustive business reporting:** Keeping track of sales, revenue, and profits is quite a tedious task, especially when you’re recording transactions on paper or spreadsheets. A POS system records all transactions in a defined or customized template. This helps retailers identify their over- and underselling items, based on which, they can strategize their marketing efforts to boost sales. * * * ## Typical features of point of sale software - **Inventory management:** Supervise the process of ordering, storing, and tracking your stocks to ensure smooth and uninterrupted supply. - **Payment processing:** Accept, verify, and process customer payments made via various channels including cash, check, digital wallets, and cards. - **Sales tracking:** Track and monitor the quantity of stocks sold over a period of time and capture the performance of your sales team. - **Discount management:** Work with different types of promo codes and reward programs to offer certain discounts to customers and boost your sales. - **Barcode scanning:** Scan products using their barcodes and/or similar tags and track the in and out movement of the items from the shop. - **Electronic signature (also known as e-signature):** Sign documents digitally within the system to save time and paper. * * * ## The cost of point of sale software Most products in the market are priced on a per month basis and can be divided into three pricing tiers based on their starting price. **Price ranges\*:** - $0 - $26 - $26 - $60 - $60+ _\*The pricing included is for the entry-level/lowest-priced offering that was found on vendor websites on April 5, 2019. These ranges correspond to the 25th, 75th, and 100th percentile of the pricing information gathered from vendor websites of sample products._ This list summarizes pricing for the base plans of most products. An enterprise, or premium product that is priced higher, may include some additional features such as multi-store retail management, advanced sales and inventory reporting, loyalty and promotional events management, and mobile apps. * * * ## Considerations when purchasing point of sale software - **Expectations from the POS:** These solutions are offered at varying price ranges. It’s easier to select a solution if you know your requirements in terms of features, functions, budget, and services. Buyers should consider the requirements of their staff and customers. It would be also advisable to anticipate your future needs, so that you can check whether the shortlisted vendor offers those features or not. - **Software usability:** The high employee turnover in the industry in one reason why you need to ensure that the POS software is easy to learn and use for all your staff. Ease of usability allows new and existing employees to use the POS soon after training. This makes it essential to test the usability and learning curve of a solution, which can be done through free trials and demos. - **Total cost of ownership:** The cost of implementing the POS can very from a few hundred dollars to thousands. This depends on the deployment option, number of accessories, and payment plan you choose. Some vendors charge a high upfront fee for compatible accessories, while others ask a recurring fee. Most POS software are compatible only with their own hardware, which means you’ll have to consider all the costs—fixed and hidden—before making any purchases. * * * ## Relevant point of sale software trends - **Mobile payments and tablet POS on the rise:** Customers are increasingly paying via mobile wallets instead of cash or card. The transaction value of the next-gen payment technology market is expected to grow [from $4.2 billion in 2018 to $14 billion](https://www.paymentscardsandmobile.com/mobile-wallet-global-usage-statistic/) by 2022. This is pushing vendors to add wallet transaction capabilities to their systems. Vendors are now running POS software on tablets and iPads instead of bulky cash registers. Instead of customers coming to the POS, the POS goes to customers now. - **POS systems get the AI upgrade:** We know that better data and analytics result in better business decisions. These days, POS systems are becoming intelligent as [software enabled with artificial intelligence](https://www.capterra.com/resources/top-5-small-business-tech-trends/) (AI) can capture data points about customers, sales, modes of payment, stock reordering speed, etc. This provides vital insights into what customers are buying and buying frequency. It can help retailers plan their purchases, segment customers, and make smarter marketing decisions. AI also enables POS systems to highlight any fraudulent transactions. * * * **Sources** Products evaluated for the pricing calculation were taken from [Capterra’s Top 20 report](https://www.capterra.com/point-of-sale-software/#infographic).
