Very good (almost perfect) software with decent customer care.

Add-ins or modifications cannbr asked at support which is very fast answering and if possible they implement it.
The POS has an ecommerce (Woocommerce) which not to many other POS sellers have. A very big advantage

Cons

Nothing

This system is amazing. The value you get for the cost of this system is hands down the best out there. You can spend 5 to 10K dollars and get suckered into NEC products that don't perform half as well.

PHP POS provides so much above and beyond in the realm of customer service that any of the other people would charge you out the ear for. We have been using PHP POS as a hosted solution for a year and what little support we have needed has been immediately delivered.

I know I am costing myself money here but they need to raise the price of this product. They are selling too cheaply.

Pros

This product does everything a small brick and mortar store needs. It handles them well.

I run this system as my own hosted code so the team has created software changes just for me. You will never get that kind of customer service from another vendor.

Cons

There is very little about this system that is a negative. You are narrowly focused to a few Credit Card suppliers but that has expanded and I suspect will continue to do so. It does run in a browser so you do need to be sure to follow specific instructions and use firefox.. which is no big deal. I still use chrome and IE when I don't need the receipt printers.

Advice to Others

Just get it. Do not spend the huge amount of money that companies like NEC and Retail Star charge small businesses.

I was promised a lot of things when buying this portal and the owner did not deliver. Poor customer service for sure.

PHP helps us manage our inventory, sales and overall profit down to the second its easy to use and gives us reports broken down into departments to help see where our money is coming from to assist us in making important decisions later. It works with most bar code readers for quick counter sales. The reciepts are very professional and customizeable. overall its a great system for the money

Pros

Ease of use

Cons

You cant batch import items off a spreadsheet

We are searching for Retail POS system for change our POS system because it was out of date. We found PHP Point of sale as affordable, easy to use and functionality more than other competitor Retail POS. We are happy now but its for one brand with multiple branches. Now we are growing and we have 2 brand. Overall its a very good and fast Retail POS.

Before we are struggling to find a POS software that will fit our needs and the same time cist effective. Until we tried Php Point of sale. The ease of use and comfort having it where ever I am as a manager of a retail store is simply perfect.

Very simple to use and understand, very good customer service, and also easy to explain to other people for administrate their accounts

Pros

Easy interface

No avaible on the internet. There is no good explanation to open por 80

Advice to Others

Give it a try. Is a really great software

I was asked by a friend to replace his POS system that had been purchased by a monster software company and was cutting him off. With PHP POS, I was able to set up his store and devices over night and he was live in one day. No learning curve, and it just works.

Trying to convey away from the traditional Point of Sale system, we decided to test PHP Point of Sale. We were very impressed from the moment we started using it. Compared to the many different software we tried, we found PHP POS to have the best user interface. It is perfectly laid out, making the workflow very easy to understand. We also found PHP POS to be the fastest most responsive out there. Carrying out transfers and sales was very easy and logically delivered in the system. PHP POS also gave us the necessary reports for our staff. One of the things we liked the most about PHP POS was the ability to have it installed on our servers. None of the web-based software we tried allowed us to do that. When it came to customer support, PHP POS would answer our questions in a matter of minutes. The developers are also always on top of customers recommendations as we posted a few requests and they were added in the subsequent version. The only thing that PHP POS fell short for us was in its ability to add GL accounts to complement with a Financial software. Other than that, PHP POS is the best one out there. It can quite well adapt to many different applications in the retail industry.

Pros

Everything. It is very well built software.

Cons

It does not have the ability to add GL accounts

Our retail store needed a software solution from a standard register. After searching all products available, I found PHP POS. They're priced perfectly. Their product works on multiple operating systems integrates with hardware and merchants. Their support is excellent and their software is EXTREMELY easy to use. I hope that they make improvements I suggest as some of them are fairly business critical. But for the price, they were the right decision hands DOWN.

Pros

Price. Ease of use. Integration. Support.

Cons

They need to add age verification. Many, many retailers these days have age restricted items. If you don't have verification, you're immediately eliminated or have to add something else which adds unnecessary cost.

I'm exceedingly pleased with PHP Point of Sale! I use it for off-site events because I'm unable to use my regular in-store POS system (Microsoft Retail Management System). I have PHP Point of Sale installed on my dedicated server. Because it's open source I've been able to write scripts which synchronize data from my in-store POS system.

PHP Point of Sale has a great interface and is very easy to use. I greatly appreciate the keyboard shortcuts, integrated credit card processing and compatibility with Star receipt printers.

Overall it's an amazing value and I highly recommend it.

We searched for ages for a cloud-based POS system that would run on any platform with a browser, and this does exactly that. We first bought the product around 5 years ago, and have stuck with it ever since. Every new version just keeps getting better and better.

Pros

Looks good, works well on mobile

Cons

Nothing

I've implemented PHP POS for client abroad, installation was a breeze and any minor customization I needed were very easy to do. My client likes the interface it's clean and very intuitive and less complicated than some of the other POS applications from big vendors on the market.

Some of the feedback I received regarding improvement:
1. It would be great to have wider support for barcode label printers besides the two Zebra models. Eg. Seiko Instruments Smart Label Printer 620 for printing narrow labels for smaller items
2. Ability to send automated emails such as closeout report.

Pros

Ease of use

Cons

Range of hardware support specifically for label printers
