Support
- the support is great; almost instant replies ; 5 stars treatment even to
shareware testing customers only
- very transparent communication/forum with developers (compared to other similar shareware companies)
Technical
- Program is very stable (so far we uses it as a cash register, we have not used it for the accounting side of double entry journals, purchase orders,
- we uses a EPSON T88 III Thermal printer (most common ones - McDonald, Supermarkets, Blockbusters uses it) and Retail Man has no problem recognising it although the preset printer selection says only II.
- Data Import is the BEST feature i found in this shareware compared to even $2000 off the rack accounting/pos software (eg. BusinessVision 32 which i used before); very simple and ability to work with EXCEL spreadsheets is the best; what i am not sure is whether it works with OPEN OFFICE.
- Reports are plain and simple and i love it..now although i am not exactly using the accounting side, at least i know what is being sold on a daily basis, instead of a DUMB cash register.
Improvements needed ...
I am sure the developers are doing a good job as they are. But these are my wish list in priorities.
- What about multiple company files ? (eg. I operate 2 businesses from same POS)
- Printing logos on receipt (currently this is available in printing invoices only)
- Tax for Canada (separate the tax to two tier, non compounded) is needed and i believe this is in the works. Currently i defined the permutation of the different taxes to go around it.
- I am still not sure if i need a 2 site license if i want to have a client/server type operation. Can you clarify this ? The manual only describe network version but the shopping cart shows 1 user and 2 users version...




Verdict
- Am I purchasing a license, You bet I am.!! Great Product and the only one that i found that is willing to support their product with a Forum. ***** Five stars for just this alone. Others are too scared to even answer users questions.
Question for Developers
Do you accept only CC payment only, Can I send by paypal payments ? I have more funds in paypal than CC
