MyPOS Feedback
We are extremly happy with the system and the integrators (TriCity). The system is very stable, user friendly and we are able to customize pretty much everything that we want. The possibilities are endless. They are at the forefront of the technology.
Pros
There is a long list of features that we love but one of the deciding factor was the cloud base system while having an offline redundancy at the store level. If we lose internet we are able to still conduct our activities.
Cons
The interface isn't the most pretty out there.
Reasons for choosing MyPOS Connect
MyPOS was much quicker than the other system. With the volume of transactions that we do everyday the speed of the system was the deciding factor.
Reasons for switching to MyPOS Connect
The technology of RMS was old and they were doing a big upgrade of their system. The new generation didn't seem to be user friendly. We were anxious that we were not going to be able to run the backend without specialized ressources.

Response from Tri-City Retail Systems
Hi Phil, Thanks for your review and your kind words. It's very much appreciated. I agree with you; the UI is a bit simplistic. MyPOS Connect was designed this way so that users could switch between a PC monitor with a keyboard and a hand-held tablet with out a keyboard - and they would see the exact same screen design. This eliminates training issues when using two different POS form factors. We are always looking to improve the software; so if you have any ideas for how we could improve the UI, without losing this ability to easily switch between form factors, I would love to hear them - or you can always send your design requests to wishlist@tricityretail.com.

My POS Connect
Pros
I love the feature of the import and export when doing counts, POs, and inventory corrections. The amount of field to get nuanced information when searching is perfect.
Cons
The a couple of problems absolutely have arose over the last 6 months but we have worked past them with the help of the support team. Being that we are in tobacco its kind of a drag that Shopify is the standard of website that it would like us to use.
Reasons for switching to MyPOS Connect
Being that we have worked with Tri-City for a number of years we decided to keep with them as they are simply the best. RMS is already a dead software and we are trying to be ahead of the curve.

Hi Alex, Thanks so much for the awesome review! Regarding your Shopify comment, you're right, it is the only "off-the-shelf" eCommerce solution for MyPOS Connect. However, we do have a Web API that will allow you to choose any eCommerce platform you like and then integrate it with our database. Please feel free to reach out to me directly or contact our support team if you would like more information.

Summary of MyPOS
The experience has been satisfactory because the support has been so good , but we have had to make a lot special processes in order to effectively support my furniture business.
Pros
It does not fail or go down which can create a real problem in the workplace.
Cons
The reports are hard to work with because they don't feed off each other. When investigating you have to come out and go back in to another report to complete the investigation. The up side is the support is fabulous and they are willing to create a special report but up to that point it is challenging. I would have loved a more comprehensive manual of instruction. I feel the one provided did not provide enough detail to explain the features and the HOW TO.
Reasons for switching to MyPOS Connect
Microsoft was not going to continue to support RMS any longer

Response from Tri-City Retail Systems
Hi Valerie, thanks for your review and for the positive feedback about our support team. I recognize that the furniture industry poses a few challenges for most POS solutions, including ours. With respect to the reporting, if you need the ability to analyze your data in more depth, one option you have is to use an optional plug-in for MyPOS Connect that will export your database to a separate data warehouse. Once this is set up, you can use any BI tool of your liking to manipulate and analyze your data in detail. If you would like more information, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. Regarding the manual, it was never meant to be a retail management reference guide. And while we do try to cover inventory control concepts in our training programs, the focus is on how to use the software to overcome your specific operational challenges. I'd like to know more about the specific features you struggle with, perhaps I can find some supporting documents I can share with you.

RMS vs MyPOS
Pros
Consistent support when needed from Tri City Retail Flexible in creating solutions when needed due to short falls
Cons
Does not have Multi task function, where you can leave a screen and come back with details from other sections without having to close the initial screen you were workings. Its what we have learned now to be called "single path".
Reasons for choosing MyPOS Connect
We went with MyPOS as our support team was very familiar with this software and we were recommended it.
Reasons for switching to MyPOS Connect
Forced due to obsolete and termination of outside support. It was an amazing system, looking back very powerful. Quick, simple and in our industry environment this is what we absolutely require.

Response from Tri-City Retail Systems
Hi April, thanks for taking the time to review MyPOS Connect. you are correct in that the software does require you to leave the POS screen to perform database and other management functions. I recall demonstrating this to you before you made the decision to deploy MyPOS Connect. unfortunately, I do not see this changing anytime soon, but I'd love to learn what other aspects of the software caused you to give it such a low score. Please contact me at your earliest convenience and I will work toward addressing all of your concerns.

MyPOS Connect review
Excellent support. With so many different on line and delivery companies, not looking for perfect integration but need smoother methods for inputting, tracking orders from external systems...
Pros
License fee grows with you based on number and actual use- helpful for seasonal and small business. Card machine and on line business integrations. Service! Excellent support.
Cons
There are no hints or self help instructions. While this would be difficult to keep current and is part of their business plan to encourage purchase of support, its not overwhelmingly negative.
Reasons for choosing MyPOS Connect
Attentive, local support.
Reasons for switching to MyPOS Connect
Initially, pricing, looking for local service.

Response from Tri-City Retail Systems
Hi Channing, thank you so much for your review and your comments on our service and support. I agree that our user documentation could be improved; we are constantly trying to update the manual but it is a never-ending challenge. Regarding self-help instructions, we recently created a series of screencasts that you can access from the Customer Resource page on our website. They weren't available yet when you had your training, so you might not even know they exist. if you have any other specific ideas about how we can improve MyPOS Connect, please don't hesitate to send them to wishlist@tricityretail.com or email me directly.
