Best Point of Sale System for Paint Stores

Recent conversations and in person visits with multiple paint and glass retail stores have prompted me to create the video below showing how Retail Management Hero (RMH) and Cloud Retailer work well in these types of stores.

While both Retail Management Hero and Cloud Retailer work well, some of the key differences depend on how you want to handle the following:
  1. How do you want to handle purchasing and receiving?
  2. Do you have more than one location?
  3. Do you prefer to buy your software and hardware upfront or use a subscription based solution?
  4. Do you have a need for the system to prepare quotes and work orders?
  5. Would you like all your data to be stored on a computer at the store or are cloud based "access anywhere" systems of interest to you? 
Here is the video (which is also a great comparison video comparing RMH and Cloud Retailer as replacement programs for Microsoft Dynamics RMS):

New Version of NCR CounterPoint Released

As many of you know, I was previously very involved with the sales and service of the NCR CounterPoint retail point of sale software. I found NCR CounterPoint to be perfect for retailers who want all the bells and whistles and have the budget to support this type of POS system (translated: CounterPoint can do just about anything but is also expensive when compared to other similar retail point of sale programs like Cloud Retailer or Retail Management Hero).

Here is a link to the press release: http://eprretailnews.com/2017/05/23/ncr-launches-new-version-of-its-proven-specialty-retail-management-software-ncr-counterpoint-784757668/
