Wasp QuickStore Professional Point of Sale
From the Sept. 2018 reviews of Point-of-Sale systems.
Along with barcode scanning and inventory control applications, WASP Barcode Technologies also offers a point of sale application well-suited for small to mid-sized retail businesses. Wasp QuickStore Point of Sale is available in three versions: Standard, Professional, and Enterprise, with users able to easily scale up if needed. A complete software/hardware bundle is also available for each version of QuickStore Point of Sale.
QuickStore Point of Sale offers users an intuitive interface screen that provides easy access to all point of sale feature icons including New Sale, Customer, Orders, Purchase Orders, and Time Clock. Users can choose to process sales using the standard menu or use Accelerator keys or Hot keys for quicker sales processing. Users can easily look up both product and customer details and can add information on the fly.
Multi-Store capability is available in the Enterprise version of QuickStore Point of Sale, with users able to track both customer and inventory details from multiple locations using a polling system that pulls data from additional locations into the main store every evening. The product accepts multiple tender types including cash, checks, credit and debit cards, and other custom tenders can be entered during product setup. Multiple tenders can also be used during a single transaction, and the product easily allows users to process multiple transaction types including special orders, returns, voids, and layaways from the point of sale interface.
QuickStore Point of Sale supports both standard computer monitors and touch screen monitors, with users choosing their either option during the setup process.
The product offers easy customer tracking capability, with the ability to monitor a complete customer purchasing history, demographics, billing and credit information, and any credit limits. Special pricing levels and automatic discounts can also be maintained for each customer if desired.
QuickStore Point of Sale contains solid inventory management capability, with users able to easily scan received items directly into inventory. The product also initiates an automatic ordering process when stock levels hit a certain point. The inventory module supports up to five pricing levels, and users can easily track inventory levels in multiple locations when using the Enterprise version of QuickStore Point of Sale.
QuickStore Point of Sale offers Sales, Inventory, and Customer reports. Users can run daily sales reports to track sales activity for each cashier, with the Sales Manifest report available for reports containing any discrepancies. Other sales reports available include Sales by Department, Detailed Item Sales, Top 40 Sales Report, and a Vendor Comparison Report. Inventory reports available in QuickStore include a Transaction Move Report, Transaction History Report, and Inventory Detail Report. Customer reports include Account Statements, Summary Invoice, or Customer Balance Summary, with many other reports available in each of the categories. All reports can be saved as a PDF document if desired.
Along with their point of sale applications, Wasp Barcode Technologies offers a variety of inventory control, asset management, time and attendance, and barcode technology products, with all products designed for smooth integration. For businesses that routinely ship products, an optional UPS shipping interface is also available. Wasp also offers a variety of software/hardware bundles that can be purchased together at discounted prices, or users can opt to purchase hardware separately. The product typically works with all industry standard barcode printers, scanners, labels, keyboards, and monitors.
QuickStore Point of Sale offers good help options throughout the application, including the availability of short tutorials which guide users through the entire system setup process.
