Front Register - Quickly scan items into the register using bar codes – or add items with one touch. Discount individual items, groups of items or the entire transaction. You can do price checks and check inventory. It’s so intuitive that employees will be able to use the POS application with almost no training. Filtered Product Search - Use multiple ways to search for products and add them to a transaction. In addition to the top product search bar, MicroBiz Cloud features a flexible advance search feature. This feature allows you to search by item name, SKU, style, UPC or Alternate ID. Search results can be displayed in table format or as product tiles. Advanced filters allow you to view results by category, vendors, brand, color, size or other attribute. Customer Order - Use the Orders in Progress capabilities in MicroBiz to manage layaways, phone orders and orders in progress. You can collect a deposit and set whether the order will be fulfilled via store pick-up, shipment or delivery. Product Record - Our product records make your job easier by offering all kinds of flexibility and capabilities around product type (simple products, matrix products, prompt for price, services, etc) and pricing strategies (discounts, promotions, customer-based pricing, quantity-based pricing). Special Orders - Manage sales of items not in stock that need to be special ordered from vendor. Special order items are grouped so that they can be quickly added to a vendor purchase order. Special order items are tagged through the ordering and fulfillment process, so that they can be treated differently than standard items in purchase orders and vendor shipments. Customer Summary - MicroBiz features a front register that tells you everything that you need to provide excellent customer service. In addition to contact information, the front register customer summary displays the customer pricing group, issuance and redemption of gift cards purchased by the customer, store credits linked to the customer, outstanding special orders and status of the default credit account.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I'm a user of MicroBiz for more than twenty years and its format is familiar to each version with modern media options such as remote access.
  • Great order management capabilities. We use for phone orders, deliveries, layaways, special orders, and service work. We look at a lot of cloud POS systems and MicroBiz has a unique combo of an easy-to-use POS register and some good order management workflow. The reporting is also good. Reports have a lot of filters ability to be customized.
  • We run a garden supplies store, and MicroBiz is working great for us. We like the ability to have customer based pricing tiers allowing us to charge different prices on the same product for the same customer. We also use the credit account feature that allows us to charge purchased to a house account and send an AR statement at the end of the month.
  • The software is very easy to use and employees grasp how to use it very quickly. Graphs and pie charts gives you quick access to income and profit and are very useful for reviewing the performances of multiple stores (I have 5). Fantastic value for money. Very responsive and highly accurate customer support.

Cons

  • I cannot slight anything about MicroBiz because they have supported me throughout all my accounting needs.
  • It would be great if there were more custom fields that could be added to product records. Receipts and invoices are missing bar codes, so to do a return of a transaction you need to enter the transaction number. It would be if the system would remember the filter setting on the reports that we use the most.
  • We wish that there was more flexibility designing the receipt. There is some ability to customize it but we wanted to copy our old receipt. Also to import products and customers from out old system, we needed to cut and paste the date from t=our old system into a CSV template provided by MicroBiz. We wished that the system would import data from the files exported from our old system. This took a little extra time.
  • Very little, nothing which springs to mind. I could not find a way to compare the total daily sales of a store over the course of a month.

Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • Every single bell and whistle you need to run a successful brick and mortar retail business. They are pre-built integrations with many new ecomm platforms like Shopify and Magento. Fantastic knowledgeable team.
  • Well laid out interface. Very responsive between modules. Support staff is outstanding. Excited about the next release.
  • I like that this POS system is curtailed for my industry of clothing and footwear. The information provided from sales, when mined correctly could result in further revenue increases. Has the capability of creating a customer points system, to help drive your best customers to come back and spend further money!! I also like the iPhone app to have on hand results of sales across my 16 stores. The customer service and support is of great quality with 24x7 support to help at anytime of the day. The staff are professional and truly intent on helping your business develop!
  • Runit is very easy to use. All applications are easily accessible. The reporting is in-depth and accurate. Sell-it inside Runit is user friendly and is easy to teach new employees quickly.
  • Runit is one of the most stable and accurate POS - Inventory systems we have used and it is second to none when implementing multi-store locations. Our previous POS relied on evening polling to transmit data and sync sales information. What a nightmare! Runit's cloud based approach keeps all of our stores accurate and in-sync with our buying office. The Pulse app is an added bonus to keep track of daily sales right from your iPhone.
