Discovered MicroBiz as a POS which works with WooCommerce

After using many POS solutions for a physical/virtual store hybrid business model (including WooCommerce POS, Shopify, and more) I was always frustrated with the discrepancies in inventory from one system to the other. Now, with microbiz, I never have to worry. Moneris and others have solutions too, but they are always throwing errors and out of date with the fast pace that WooCommerce iterates... but not MicroBiz. Highly recommend we keep supporting this product.

Pros

It actually syncs with WooCommerce in a very simple way. They keep updating it behind the scenes to keep up with changes in WooCommerce, which is a nice change from past developers.

Cons

In the beginning, their user guide was very narrow on the setup of the WooCommerce and MicroBiz inventory Sync. This has been rectified.

When we learned that Quickbooks Multi-store POS (which we had been using for 17 years in our three stores) was being phased out, we set out to do an exhaustive search for a replacement. We took several "test drives" and demos from the usual suspects, but were not satisfied. The search continued until we came across MicroBiz and made contact on a Sunday afternoon. We were pleasantly surprised when we received an immediate response and from there continued to be impressed with both the product and the level of support made available. There was a lot of work to clean up our inventory file before it could be imported to MicroBiz and they held my hand through it all. I had so many questions and concerns about making a clean conversion without losing even a day of sales and the MicroBiz team patiently answered each one. They worked within our time schedule and provided training until we were ready. We closed early one afternoon, completed the conversion overnight and opened up the next morning in all three stores ready to go.

Pros

Ease of use for sales associates - up and running in minutes.
Cloud based product huge improvement over QBPOS desktop.
Product matrix set-up is key to inventory styles with multiple sizes and colors.
Exceptional support, very responsive, thorough, patient and eager to help.

Cons

Certain reports that would be helpful (but are not vital) are not yet available. However, support and management have been very willing to design workarounds and are very open to suggestions for future reporting additions.

We have been using Micorbiz for over 25 years. It is not really made to cater to a hardware stores but we managed to make it work. Unfortunately, we will be changing soon. We need a POS system that can do more.

Pros

Very easy to use. The software is affordable and the technical support fees are fair. Customer service is quick to respond. It really is good for a small business of 1-10 people.

Cons

You have to download your own updates and no one tells you the updates are available. The software claims to do a lot but many of the function do not work properly. We don't need those functions so have just managed to overlook them. Not many credit card processors work well with their system.

The staff at Microbiz are always very attentive and available to help. Even if the software were mediocre the A+ support and Pricing make it the best choice I've found...since it is great software it's a WIN, WIN!

Pros

This is a easy to use software with a ton of great features. The support and price of this software is unbelievable!

Cons

The only thing that I don't like is it is difficult to actually get into old invoices, a few to many clicks. Not a big deal and will probably be addressed and updated.

Pros

Our support was outstanding during the implementation. We did some customization to meet our needs and it was done right the first time!!

Cons

We replaced QB POS and our learning curve of all the features was slower than we planned. Internal petsonnell issue. Not a software issue.
