Users of the Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) accounting software have a multitude of options when it comes to choosing a point of sale system that offers some level of interfacing with GP. Two options really stand out as they don't just interface with GP but actually become part of GP as a GP point of sale "bolt on".
I recently spent some time getting familiar with the Compass and SalesPad point of sale solutions for GP and was very impressed. The cost and complexity of Compass and SalesPad put these solutions in the small to mid-sized chain retailer and offer scale-ability whether you have 5 locations or 150 locations.
Given the complexity of these point of sale programs, please contact me directly for more information and the contact information for a trustworthy Dynamics Partner who is experienced with the sales and support of Compass, SalesPad, and Dynamics GP.

Budget for a POS System but Don't Focus on Price
One thing that irks me is when someone focuses solely on price and ignores value. While it is important to budget for a POS system, ignoring value and focusing solely on price is the wrong way to approach investing in a POS system for your business or organization. Things to avoid:
- Attempting to save $100 by finding the lowest hardware price from different vendors. For the sake of setup and ongoing support, it is much better to purchase everything from one source.
- Comparing costs of completely different systems. POS programs have different features and functions - a nominal difference in upfront or monthly costs is minor when compared to finding a POS program that does what you need it to do for your business or organization.

How Popular is Bindo POS? Popular Enough to be Featured on CNBC along with retailer Space Cowboy Boots!
Another point of sale company makes national news. This time it is the very popular Bindo point of sale that many folks I know have recently selected as a point of sale system for their business or organization. The video segment covers Bindo POS as well as why a cowboy boot store in New York City (Space Cowboy Boots) selected Bindo POS for their business.
