We partnered with Celerant to build a robust all in one integrated system, which included a consignment functionality.

Use the implementation staff, training staff, and support staff.

For such a complex and crucial part of business, it’s good to have a partner like Celerant who can help simplify the process to get our operation as secure as possible.

I thought going in that it would make my life easy but I was proven wrong.

Celerant has been a true technology partner to us and, more importantly, passionately committed to our success.

Promised to meet all our web page and pos needs in a “one stop shop. In person salesmen seemed creative and responsive.

Our business is in worse shape now than before the switch.

The amount of time we have saved using best store fulfillment is immeasurable.

Celerant is a very good POS system that provided a quick and easy way to track sales and inventory when used correctly.

The integration is great as many of our customers shop all of our stores so having access to accurate customer data allows us to better serve our customers.

Metrics suffer from an identity crisis, with different labels scattered across the system, causing confusion between barcode variations, product styles, and inventory classification.

With them still owing me a module for the website and another for a mod I had to prepay for to get the pricing I did, I walked away and took the loss.

I have found everyone from Sales to Implementation to Training to Support to be professional, courteous and very helpful.

Exceptional software that is fully integrated with how our two stores conduct business while helping us maintain a omni channel retail presence.

Celerant provides amazing multi-channel capabilities for less than other companies with similar software. The integration with Amazon and Channel Advisor set Celerant above the rest for us.

Critical issues, such as sales syncing failures resulting in massive financial losses, were met with apathy.

We are very happy with the software and our relationship with Celerant- and would recommend the system to any dealer.

Good software for inventory sales and ordering.

Once I was used to it, I certainly enjoyed the ease of use of the system and the ability to network in our stores from around the country.

Celerant’s Command Retail was one of our most important technology investments.

Like any major investment, do your homework which if you are on this site you likely are already doing.

Sometimes the program would crash when trying to pull reports and wasn't multifunctional while performing transactions.

The service and post install add-ons that you thought were part of the original deal are really frustrating. Not so much in cost as install delays.

The customization of the pos screen is great. Super easy to navigate and change if need be.

Customer support is expensive amd doesn’t get the issues resolved. Mostly band aids assuming it gets fixed.

To be fair, this issue probably only arose due to the items being entered wrong on our end.

We needed a great web platform, a mail order web interface, and a very robust amazon integration.

It is slightly counter-intuitive when learning how to use the system. At times, it can be confusing why certain actions weren't as easy to un-do or go back.

I like the ability write on the device and move, or go. It allows for both speed and accuracy.

Reliance on usb security key which fails often.

Reporting one of the most amazing features on the program with ton of reports and ton filter you can almost get any report you want.

The software was pretty user friendly. But there were some glitches in it.

This POS system is extremely outdated, difficult to use, and not user-friendly.

The software itself was VERY easy to use and train new employees on. Very simplistic and straight forward.

Now we not only support it, but we recommend it to all of the local bard, and restaurants in our area.

They only care about getting there monthly fees.

Dependency on server connection to maintain pos uptime. Server provided is generally poor quality and would crash constantly.

Shift 4 is in a bad turmoil at the present time because they have a major problem in processing on line payments.

I Just signed up with another POS company. And wasted money on Restaurant Manager.

Very disappointing in Restaurant Manger and Shift 4.

It has everything you would need for a growing business. But good luck implementing it with no help from tech support.

The most important factor is that Restaurant manger and Shift 4 has no explanation for the error and the customer service is terrible.

Ui is fine but dependence on outdated hardware is a boon.

Positive experience for sure. It got the job done and served its purpose.

As I said, I used this for over 20 years, the problem is that the software never changed or evolved in that 20 years.

They have no answers for the issue and have offered nothing to all there customers for there losses.

Visually it’s terrible, many other software options are a lot better. It is VERY basic and unattractive.

Great feature rich POS system at an affordable price.

Very disappointed in the effort to fix problems.
