Opiniones de PHP Point of Sale

The best software to manage inventory in your business

Comentarios: I had a phenomenal experience using PHP point of sale. It is easy to calculate how much turnover the available stock is going to make. I am able to plan well how much I am going to save from that turnover and how much is going to purchase more stock. Despite that, I like the fact that during busy hours, it is easy to serve the customers because I don't have to manually calculate how much the items bought cost and how much change is required. I also like the fact that with this software, I am able to track my employees work. Some people become tempted to steal when there is no Inventory Management Software. This software is so awesome, I like the fact that it is secure, every person has to have his or her account in case mistakes happen, that particular person is held responsible without implicating the entire staff.

Puntos a favor:

I like the fact that I am able to manage my inventory easily with this software. I am able to know how much profit the available stock is going to generate It is easy for me to see my employees are cheating me. The cashed money has to correspond with the sales made per day. What I like most is the fact that I don't have to calculate how much change I will have to give back to the customer, it calculates it automatically as I am selecting the items bought.

Contras:

There is nothing I would disregard about this software. But you will find that we hire unskilled labor or illiterate people, so it becomes a challenge when you have to train such a person to use the system.

All over a great, easy to use, no fuss POS

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use. Hardly ever any technical problems occurred during my 4 years of using it.

Contras:

If you want to use credit card machine that will automatically “connected” to the POS (the final amount charged to buyer will automatically appear on CC machine) you can only choose from a few providers.

A descent tool for small businesses

Puntos a favor:

We use PHP POS as a costing tool for our ecommerce website which it does fairly well especially for creating product bundles. Relatively easy to use.

Contras:

Does a poor job of inventory management when using product bundles, e.g. it doesn't adjust the inventory of the individual products in a bundle. The new price is rather steep.

The best POS software that you’ll ever need

Comentarios: Professional simplicity

Puntos a favor:

Super simple setup. I first came across this software when it first started long time ago. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been very active with its support. Quick and real fast answers to any questions you may have

Contras:

There is nothing really I don’t like about this software.

PHP Point of Sale

Comentarios: Overall am satisfied.

Puntos a favor:

The software is friendly, simple and easy user interface but includes most of the important aspects of managing a retail store such as managing employees, inventory control, reports, barcode and more.

Contras:

Bacodes can be hard to set-up depending on the size of the lables and the label printer you're using.

A+ POS solution!

Comentarios: We love it. The price is affordable, and it does everything we need it to do. If there is a feature we need added or tweaked, it is typically accomodated quickly with customer service that is prompt and curteous.

Puntos a favor:

Everything from installation to features to customer support is exemplary

Contras:

Can't say there are any we run into on any frequent basis

Love PHP POS

Comentarios: Love the ease of use and [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is always responsive anytime I have a question. Highly recommend

Puntos a favor:

I have 2 locations and need a POS I could use with different currencies. It’s the best investment I made for my business.

Contras:

I am appointment based so I would love to be able to use the calendar feature. Because it doesn’t currently connect to any external calendars, we have to copy and paste our customer information into the system.

Outstanding service

Comentarios: Migration was a breeze, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is right on top of things! Learning curve was very minimal and easy to adapt!

Puntos a favor:

Outstanding local (USA) customer service, migration was very painless and took little to no time! the lay out is neat and easy to navigate. Issues are addressed promptly and effectivly.

Contras:

Sometimes if correct wording for repairs isn't used it has a hard time finding them. Can't obtain a work order authorization signature and no before and after function check lists.

Love this product!

Comentarios: This product has immensely helped my business, helping it run smooth

Puntos a favor:

We started a new business with this software and loved it, the setup process was simple and we never have any issues, keeps the store running smoothly

Contras:

I honestly don’t have anything I dislike, we really enjoy this software

Very satisfied with PHP

Comentarios: Easy to use as a POS.

Puntos a favor:

Very thoroughly thought out product and does what we need a POS to do.

Contras:

A few options not available, but will be addressed.

Very flexible and easy to extend

Comentarios: Overall, we are extremely happy with PHP Point Of Sale. We've invested a lot of time in customizing it for our specific needs. I don't think we would've been able to integrate it so tightly with our other systems if we had gone with another POS system. It has also been extremely reliable.

Puntos a favor:

The built-in API and the ability to extend the system with your own PHP code are the features that set this apart from other POS systems. We have modified our system extensively, which would not have been possible with other software. Technical support was outstanding, even when we were adding completely new features. The developer was very open with sharing information and tips. Probably the best technical support I have ever received with a software package. Also, the ability to host the software on our own on-premises server was important.

Contras:

We found some of the features to be a little confusing and unintuitive, but once you understand how they work it all makes perfect sense. Like anything, there is a learning curve.

PHP for efficiency

Comentarios: We have extended our brick and mortar business into the ecommerce world and having a POS system that integrates seamlessly has definitely helped. Customer service is awesome and, even though we're in totally different time zones, very timely.

Puntos a favor:

I trialled all the software products available and PHP offered the most efficient, easy to navigate and implement system out there. It has everything you need and more.

Contras:

I had a few implementation issues in syncing to ecommerce but that was my error and issues were resolved easily after requesting help from customer service.

Robust, intuitive, and cheap for the small business!

Comentarios: I came across phpPOS while researching different POS systems when we were first opening. Suggested by a user on /r/smallbusiness, we were seeking a POS option that allowed us to utilize categorized products for our own stock, consignment based sales, and reporting features. Another caveat we held was that the POS was within our "limited" budget at the time -- phpPOS fit all of those needs, and more. We purchased, and two years later still use, the stand-alone version of phpPOS which fit our needs perfectly. We only use one register, but all staff have their own unique password protected logins and we can easily backup our inventory, sales history, etc. to an external drive. For larger businesses that require concurrent registers, etc -- you may want to consider the online version instead. Very happy with phpPOS and would definitely suggest it to other small business folks out there looking for a robust yet affordable POS option.

Puntos a favor:

- detailed inventory options with categorization - ability to separate consignment sales and suppliers - product / service separation - good reporting options - can customize with knowledge of php - extremely affordable - stand-alone product -- service outages don't affect your sales! - item-grid compatible with touch-screen (we have too many items, so don't utilize this feature -- but it's there!)

Contras:

Very little cons. Never had any major issues, nor had to resort to customer support. The POS is intuitive enough to figure out on its own. Gift cards can be a little confusing at first.

The best Point of Sale Software out there

Puntos a favor:

Extremely easy to use, one of the best software's that comes with built in integration with woocommerce.

Contras:

We haven't had any issues with them yet.

Best POS for Retailer

Puntos a favor:

Simple, easy to use, if you have knowledge in Excel you can transfer products, suppliers and customers in seconds. A lightweight program so you don't need to have a server or a supercomputer to manage it. You can work in the cloud or you can simply do it locally. It adapts to cell phones, laptops, tablets and you can access it from anywhere by creating a network that allows you to do it. We have been using it for years when it only had about 70mb of download.

Contras:

It would be good to improve the way to search for products so that when the item number or barcode is not available, the search is done by item description. The other thing that could be improved would be (in my case) the account statements for customer accounts receivable. This applies to me because I have few customers to whom I grant credit.

Awesome POS

Comentarios: We implement this software for different clients here on Mexico.

Puntos a favor:

Easy to implement and use. Easy for the users to use on a daily basis.

Contras:

Only one "Style" or look and feel ... But is only the aesthetics of it .... but, the software works great

Great simple POS

Comentarios: Generally very satisfied. It does the job.

Puntos a favor:

It’s simple. Simple is best. Not overly packed with useless, or repetitive and overpriced features. I have other software for accounting and inventory. Like most businesses I also have a terminal for card transactions. This fits in easily without costing me a fortune.

Contras:

Would be better if export to excel was in number format instead of text format. Which means I have to convert my numeric text to numbers so that I can sum up columns.

Used as POS system for a small retail operation (bike shop and bike fitting studio)

Comentarios: Invoicing, bookkeeping, and inventory were made much better for us!

Puntos a favor:

Just works. Software is robust, can be accessed from multiple computers within the organization. Any technical issues have been quickly resolved by support staff.

Contras:

Upgrade options are expensive for the size of our business. Although we'd love to have it cloud-based, the cost cannot be justified for our size of an operation.

PHP POS is your go to system

Comentarios: I have been working with PHPPos since early 2011, Right before [SENSITIVE CONTENT] took it over. We started using it in our own stores and watched it grow of the last 11 years from a small opensource project to what it is today. A strong robust full featured POS system. We have since stopped using it ourself as we sold the business but have helped many of our clients get it setup and configured.

Puntos a favor:

Ease of use and installation is the most important, factor that with how [SENSITIVE CONTENT] listens and innovates and you have a winning POS that just works.

Contras:

We have had more happy customer by migrating to PHPPOS and cannot. complain about anything

Great Product. Great Support

Comentarios: PHP pos offers a robust user experience: slick interface, excellent sales and inventory tracking, and intuitive ease of use. Training employees to use the software took practically no time! Customers love the account features that allows history searches and store credit lines. My favorite feature: first rate customer service! Tech support responds quickly and thoroughly. And new feature requests often are met in the next release build. I highly recommend this mature platform that has made store management simple and efficient!

Puntos a favor:

Customer support--trouble tickets resolved quickly and personally. Feature enrichment grows by orders of magnitude with each release.

Contras:

Maybe offer a video tutorial or other resource(s) on using the software for admins. Your interface is highly intuitive, but someone new to POS transactions might not understand, in principle, the rich value of all your PHP pos software capabilities. Your support forums are a great starting place for troubleshooting. I'm thinking more in terms of feature tutorials.

Excellent features for the price!

Comentarios: Ability to access the program from any location and device! Customisation, ease of use - everyone can use it even our technologically challenged staff!

Puntos a favor:

So easy to use, large amount of features including the ability to add photos, edit items in bulk, price scaling/ tiers, control duration of sale prices, emailing a copy of the invoice to customers, CLOUD based - this feature has been my life saver! Ease of introducing a scanner, till and label printer to the program, excellent customer service who actually take your recommendations seriously and even implement bona fide requests that would serve everyone! Ability to customise. The price is what drew me initially and has kept me using it!

Contras:

If somehow it could be integrated into any website to save me doubling up on managing inventory. Other than that at this stage your team has done a fantastic job! I've recommended this to all business owners I meet!

Very good and versatile. Good support.

Comentarios: point of sale and credit and debit card purchasing made very easy, sale takes place very quickly and customer does not have to wait for dial thru and connection before sale is approved or denied.

Puntos a favor:

platform is very portable. I am able to use computer, phone and tablet. Easyt to log on and log off. Able to add users, and access a variety of customer records.

Contras:

reports could be better. Many reports concern distributors and input of product dates and money. Would like more reports regarding interaction with customners that could help boost repeat business and help with customer interactions at point of sale.

Good POS but needs to grow with new fuctionality

Comentarios: PHP Point of Sale is a good web based and mobile software that matches well for small and midsize businesses. While the interface is clean and intuitive, the integration features to any major eCommerce platform is non-existent. We use PHP Point of Sale for our brick-n-mortar store, but have to maintain separate inventory from our online ecommerce solution which requires extra time and manpower. I recommend you throughly test the PHP Point of Sale application and see if it meets our needs. I'd like to see more features and functionality deployed and tested at a faster rate. The updates are far and few between. I would recommend to small businesses. When you're at the point of 1000+ skus and you're business grows, you made need to re-evaluate your business needs.

Puntos a favor:

Interface (Clean and Concise) Great IPad App / Mobile Useful Features

Contras:

No integration with BigCommerce, Shopify, Magento, or Woocommerce at this time Product Import (SKU's) need to be enhanced

I have been giving this solution to my customers and they are more than satisfied with the software

Comentarios: Best ROI

Puntos a favor:

PHP point of sale has a very intuitive interface and that every new user can understand in a matter of few minutes. PHP POS has large number of reports with very flexible filters to get the information needed PHP POINT OF SALE has great sale handling capabilities which huge super markets require to handle volume of sale

Contras:

php point of sale comes with single location license and one needs to buy additional license for additional location. Credit sales is recorded in store account. it will be better if each customer has credit and debit accounts

Easy product to transition to from other programs

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use. Easy to create categories and payment methods used. I like that one can suspend a sale while helping out another customer.

Contras:

Would like to be able to get a report of inventory levels from the beginning of the month to end of the month by looking at closeout reports. It just reports the current inventory amount regardless of the day. When entering a new item, one needs to find the next product number. It would be nice if it would learn how you create product numbers based on prior input and put in the next one for you.
