MerchantOS

MerchantOS is a web-based Point of Sale solution which I found after one of their people left a comment on this blog. Today I finally had time to have a look at it, and as it is web-based they have a far easier job than other manufacturers offering a demo on their site. Talking about their site, they also do a good job explaining the benefits of web based solutions such as location independent availability and low software installation costs.

MechantOS has a nice look and feel thanks to the use of AJAX, and a rich feature set. After logging in I was presented with a list of registers, after which I came to the sales screen. As you can see, sales options include several payment types, printing invoices, customer selection and layaway.

Other features of MerchantOS include inventory control, work orders, rentals, purchase orders and of course reporting.
