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

  • Their extremely easy to get through to and you feel like a person not a number in some corporate mumbo jumbo, as well they innovate every day and are constantly and consistently upgrading features that are available to all and not only if you pay some exorbitant fee like other software's
  • The work orders in Vibe was a game changer for us we are a hat store from fittings to cleanings work orders helps us keep track of every alteration and service that our customers need ensuring a chain of custody and responsibility
  • Reports, Inventory Management and the CC Payment processing as well their customer service and support is top notch!
  • Speed matters in our business, and Vibe keeps lines moving. Transactions are quick, payment processing is smooth, and inventory updates instantly. The reporting tools help me understand shrink, margins, and top-selling items without guessing.
  • We needed a POS that could handle complex inventory and still feel easy for staff - Vibe nailed it. The item organization, categories, and reporting make sense, even with hundreds of SKUs.
  • Compliance aside, what we needed most was solid inventory control and customer tracking - Vibe delivers on both. Product variations, barcodes, and vendor tracking all work smoothly. The system doesn't lag eve during busy hours.
  • Vibe is powerful but doesn't feel overwhelming, which I really appreciate. Training new employees is easy because the interface is clean and logical. Inventory tracking is accurate, even with multiple vendors and variations.
  • I've used Square, Lightspeed, and a couple of others - Vibe is the first system that actually feels thought out for scaling retail. The customer profiles and purchase history are incredibly helpful for repeat buyers, and the built-in loyalty tools let us reward customers without third-party apps.
  • We run a high volume retail health operation, and Vibe handles it without slowing us down. Checkout is fast, payments are reliable, and cash discounting was easy to setup.
  • We switched to vibe after outgrowing our old POS, and it's been a night-and-day difference. The inventory management alone saved us hours every week - being able to see stock levels across all locations in real time is huge for us. Reporting is actually useful, not just charts you never look at.
