Full-featured retail solution, but a few lingering issues
Pros
There are a number of really great features with RQ Retail Management. There are a lot of reports that a user can generate to extrapolate valuable insights about employee/location performance and trends, and the software solution as a whole is easy to use. My experiences with RQ's technical support team have been consistently excellent.
Cons
For whatever reason, the memory management in RQ Retail Management is unbelievably poor. I would avoid running this software on a machine with less than 8GB of memory if you intend to do anything else on the computer other than run RQ software. For a program that is essentially just a front-end to a database hosted by RQ, the memory leak issues are somewhat surprising.

Could be better. Great software
Pros
It's really easy to use for inventory management and invoicing. Cash management functionality and inventory check-in are great features of rq
Cons
System runs slow sometimes. You need a fast internet connection and high powered machines to get things done efficiently.

Always has issues that interfere with making sales.
Pros
It is a POS system. It's a nice blue color. Customer service representatives are always very friendly and helpful.
Cons
Takes too many steps to complete a sale. The program is always having problems functioning correctly which means I'm on the phone with customer service every week trying to fix these issues. It has interfered with the business and has prevented me from making sales.

RQ4 - 4 Years of Experience
Likes Best
I love the fact that I have my Scheduling, Payroll, Inventory, and Ordering systems all in one. There are only a couple of additional programs needed to run my store!
Likes Least
There is no way to integrate the scheduling calendar with any other calendar (e.g., Google Calendar, Exchange, etc.). The software is updated continuously, which is really nice, and sometimes it's quite the surprise when you have a newer employee opening and their routine is thrown out of whack by a button moving.
Recommendations
The system is very functional, and for all of the things that it does, it does them more than adequately.

They have very helpful support staff. The settings are intuitive. The vendor works very hard to make sure you have a great experience. The product/customer support is great. It allows for a review of all sales and has great statistics to make it easy to track.
Likes Least
It's very RAM heavy. If you have an old PC, it'll hog it all.
Recommendations
It's very easy to use and very customizable. There's a lot to like.

It's very straightforward and easy to navigate the system. They are usually very prompt with support on the backend.
Likes Least
The program does have a tendency to freeze on occasion, although that could have more to do with the hardware I use.
Recommendations
If you give the program a chance, I don't think you will have any problem finding that it can meet a wide variety of needs.

Pros
RQ excels at taking all the different components in processing mobile device transactions and putting them into one place. Helps save alotta time and get your customer moving.
Cons
The updating process could be sped up a little. Also sometimes it crashes mid sale and you have to start from scratch, but not before waiting a lifetime for it to load back up and get logged back in.

That we can manage everything we do in store from invoices to CRM, it can all be logged, saved, and scheduled all in one place.
Cons
It freezes often but it always pushes through almost immediately after, this may not be a software issue though...

Very easy for front end users for the most part. The flow is very easy to follow and allows the user to complete a transaction with ease. It also allows users to report on almost anything.
Cons
The more you add into it, the more complicated it can get if you don't know all the ends and outs of the back-end. (But that is easily fixed with the customer service.)

Better control of inventory. Better understanding of sales mix. Integrated vendors for marketing.
Pros
RQ allows us to run our business so much more efficiently. We have great visibility to inventory levels and needs. We are able to analyze our sales mix and focus on underselling categories.
Cons
While the reports are great, there is inconsistencies in the column headers and calculations. For a new user, it is difficult to know which numbers to trust.
