RECOMMENDATIONS FOR POS & INVENTORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS?

Good Morning All,

Any recommendations for POS & Inventory Management systems for a very small business? Plenty of room for growth and expansion, so looking for something suitable for a smaller operation, but can handle scale over the years. Any insights are appreciated!

Hi Josh, what industry are they in? I've worked in the Martech space for a bit and may know of a few options depending on their needs.

Hi Mark, do you happen to have an idea of the approximate yearly cost for these options you mentioned for inventory management hardware+software solutions?

Hi ^[redacted]‌ the industry is selling large home & specialty appliances. A key piece to the business are the logistics (delivering the items). So, Ideally the POS & Inventory Management systems could be linked with a route/map planning software so we have insights into what was sold, payment method, at what price point, when it was delivered, where it was delivered etc.

Ah I see. Okay, so I believe that Salesforce can be configured with that as they are fairly customizable for different scale and operation types. I think this may be a mesh of a tech stack though where a few pieces need to integrate nicely with one another, unless you can add certain apps into the Salesforce ecosystem which is vey possible. Hopefully this helps and happy to help out more!
