POS Hardware:  

You can’t buy the hardware through SquashPOS; however, the SquashPOS software is compatible with almost all POS hardware.

POS Software:  

This is one of the most efficient and user–friendly POS solutions. The tab system makes it easy to move from one area of the program to another and setup your preferences, make a sell or manage your inventory.

SquashPOS offers tons of practical features. It will track layaways, gift registries, certificates and backorders. The software will also record your customer’s personal information, history and credit limit.

This web–based POS solution provides valuable reports to help you make educated decisions pertaining to your business. You can create reports by date and various criteria. You can even save your report settings so they are accessible.

Functionality/Ease of Use:  

The SquashPOS program is easy to use—a computer novice will have no problem setting up an account, creating an inventory, customer database and making sales.

A representative from SquashPOS will give you a helpful tour of the program over the phone. They will lead you through their website and explain each of the features.

SquashPOS is constantly updating and improving their system and all updates are free to subscribed users.

Price/Value:  

If you already own POS hardware and just want to upgrade your software to an online version, this is a great option. The setup fee is $50, there are no contracts and at $99 a month, the price is pretty good.

Training/Support:  

You can contact SquashPOS support by email or phone. There is also a helpful online user guide. We would recommend taking a tour of the software before and after creating an account. The sales representatives are helpful and full of good information. A one-time training and support session is available for your first store system.

Considering the inexpensive cost, SquashPOS is a great Internet–based POS system for someone who owns POS hardware, or doesn’t mind buying the hardware separately. Other solutions ranked higher simply because they offer the POS hardware as well.
