Opiniones de Cumulus Retail

Great products and service!

Comentarios: THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES THEY PROVIDE ARE PORBABLY SOME OF THE BEST OUT THERE. THEY WERE ABLE TO GET ALL OF THE SAME ITEMS I DROPSHIPPED THROUGH RSR GROUP AND PUT THEM ON OUR WEBSITE AND THEY COVERED A LOT OF THE PROCESS. THEY MADE THE TEMPLATE AND TOOK CARE OF THE RED TAPE TYPE OF STUFF, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ADD YOUR PERSONAL FLAIR AND IMAGES TO IT. ONCE YOU GO THROUGH THE TRAINING IT BECOMES A LOT EASIER AND QUICKER TO GET THINGS DONE THEY CAN BE A BIT PRICEY FOR A SMALL BUSINESS AND YOU WILL NEED TO PLAN ON SPENDING MUCH MORE THAN THE $350 A MONTH AND MAKE SURE YOU READ WHATEVER CONTRACTS THEY HAVE YOU SIGN COMPLETELY. I WAS UNAWARE OF A FEW DIFFERENT THINGS THAT I SIGNED UP FOR AND ONLY REALIZED AFTERWARDS THAT I REALLY COULDNT AFFORD IT LONG TERM.

Great product, with lots of features.

Comentarios: As we were one of the first adopters we had a few issues, but they were addressed in a timely manner. We converted over to Cumulus from Retail Star, and I was a little disappointed that some of the main features that I used on a daily basis were not accessible on day 1. After some updates these features are accessible now.

Puntos a favor:

Ease of use with a host of features. Cloud based allows for Inventory access from anywhere with Internet access.

Contras:

We had the local server option install for redundancy, but this service can be slow at times. Plus any updates to products are not instant.

Worth the learning curve

Puntos a favor:

I like having the ability to work in remote locations. The pre set reporting helps with inventory control.

Contras:

I miss the customizations from Retail Star and the ability to access older information from customer store credits and gift cards.

Happy with our new POS

Puntos a favor:

All my products transfered over to the new data base, my empolyees love our new touchscreen cash register monitor, customer support and training people are awesome to work with! Overall the product is super easy to work with.

Contras:

When ordering on a PO I wish there was a way to see "on hand" items on the same screen as the PO. (I heard that this will be in an upcoming update though). Also, I wish I could just hit the ENTER button when doing searches (instead of mousing up to the search button).

The transition to the Cumulus platform was easy and seamless, the staff ensured we were completely satisfied.

Puntos a favor:

Simple to use, easy to learn and well supported by a professional staff. Implementation was a breeze

Contras:

The website development did not end up meeting our expectations but, they were willing to work with our chosen developer

President

Comentarios: CSR made this change over tolerable! They seem to understand our needs and concerns and in my opinion, they have been extremely helpful.

Puntos a favor:

I feel that the combination of our Cumulus operation system and our website, our 65 year old business might be able to come of age in the 21st century.

Contras:

This system is much slower when it comes to saving and finishing at the pos and back office compared to Retail Star.

Excellent for medium sized shops

Comentarios: Everyone I've dealt with has been extremely friendly and helpful during the setup and training process. The support after the sale when minor issues have arisen has been excellent as well.

Puntos a favor:

Tons of features Shooting range management Inventory Management Built in bound book software Smartwaiver integration i4473 integration Training course management Fairly intuitive interface Helpful and quick to react tech support

Contras:

Not as easy to set up as the bargain guys (as expected) No gunsmith support yet No simple offline mode (local servers are optional, but if cloud based, there isn't a temporary cache to allow operation when the internet fails)

Vary easy to use once I got the hang of it

Puntos a favor:

This has everything I need to run a indoor shooting range and gun shop. Once products are imported correctly it is vary easy

Contras:

I wish it was easier to take in used guns through the system. every once in a wile i can use the same log in and have to use another.
