Travel Schedule Q3 and Q4 2018

OK, so those of you with chains and franchises are getting serious about investing in new point of sale technology come 2019 and 2020. Many of you use Microsoft Dynamics RMS with HQ while others use quite the variety of POS programs that are outdated or lacking certain features and functions.

• Salt Lake City, Utah
• Seattle, Washington
• Portland, Oregon
• Minneapolis, Minnesota
• Multiple parts of Idaho
• Multiple parts of Oregon

I am still working on Texas, Colorado and Arizona so please contact me as needed. Same goes if you are in an area that I am visiting and wish to meet in person for unbiased consulting or sales/service related assistance.

RITE Expands Westward

Retail Information Technology Enterprises (RITE), Sartell, MN has expanded their local presence westward to provide local retail point of sale system service and sales to the under-served states of Idaho and Utah.

Since DirectPOS (Boise, ID, Salt Lake City, UT, and Spokane, WA) stopped selling and supporting point of sale systems in late summer 2013, retailers in these areas have experienced difficulty in obtaining service and support for their point of sale systems. Retailers in these areas searching for a point of sale system have found that they are limited to simple mobile point of sale systems or working with someone whose sole focus is not just on retail point of sale systems.

Since 2002, RITE has provided sales and 24/7 support of multiple point of sale systems for retailers of all types with a special focus on specialty retail stores with between 1 and 300 locations. 
RITE's Idaho and Utah office can be reached at 208-994-9404 or kevina@rite.us

More Information on Retail Management Hero Point of Sale (Microsoft Dynamics RMS/POS 2009 Replacement)

Update July 2016, Retail Management Hero demo and overview: http://retailpospondering.blogspot.com/2016/07/new-version-of-rmsretail-management.html

Wow - so much to share regarding the June 14th, 2016 release of the Retail Management Hero (RMH) point of sale software as a replacement for Microsoft Dynamics RMS and Microsoft POS 2009 point of sale software programs!

I'll be creating more detailed blog posts, reviews, overviews, and videos over the next 2 weeks but here are some bullet points:

• Release date is June 14th, 2016
• Easy and very low cost migration from RMS/POS 2009 to RMH (pricing starts at $215.00/computer + labor)
• RMS/POS 2009 users can keep their existing equipment in most situations
• RMS users can keep their histiorical data
• EMV processing out of the box (very limited will be expanded by Q3 2017)
• Built in customer loyalty program (limited - with add-ons available as well)
• RMH has nearly all of the features and functions that RMS offered...and much more like emailing receipts and matrix purchase order creation for apparel stores
• Adaptable to all types of retail stores - even stores with heavy service/labor offerings
• Fills the niche for stores whose volume or number of locations does not justify investing in Retail Pro, NCR CounterPoint, or similar point of sale software programs
• Offers the reliability, speed, up-time, and features/functions than many of the cloud based POS systems can't touch (like Clover, Silver, Vend. Shopkeep, etc)

Stay tuned for more details as I will be offering sales and support for the following point of sale programs effective immediately (US - all locations):

• Microsoft Dynamics RMS and RMS HQ (support only - sales to existing users only)
• Microsoft Dynamics POS 2009 (support only)
• Retail Management Hero versions 3 and 3.1 (starting June 14th, 2016)
• Cloud Retailer POS
• Retail Realm Essentials POS

Many more details to follow.
