Why and how to change POS software?

One of the problems you can find the employer now ending year is to make the transition from an old software POS that does not meet their needs to one that works best, allows to register more products, has a more intuitive interface and Offer all the necessary information.

Once the inventory, closed many want to start the new year with a new software to be with fewer complications throughout the year. In this sense, it is essential that the transition from the old POS to the new terminal is done in the most efficient way possible.

Reasons to change POS software

There are several reasons why you may need to change TPV .

• Program with limited functions. One of them can be, without going further, that you have a free program in which all the functionalities are not released and you need to have something more sophisticated.
• Low specific POS software. Another reason may be that you have a very generic program, which does not adapt well to the characteristics of your business.
• It's too expensive. Assuming it is rented software, it is possible that upgrades and maintenance are expensive and you decide to buy your own program to not be paying month by month.

How to change from one point of sale to another?

The transition process will take time depending on the nature and volume of your inventory . It is often wise to continue working with the old and install the new POS software on a different computer while it is preparing to start using when you are ready.

In this sense, you can go testing and preparing the program for a while before you start working with it, which allows a more bearable and easy transition. Depending on the old TPV, some programs can make a data export to Excel(products, suppliers, customers, categories, etc.) and then import the new Point of Sale, but often have to fill in something manually.

So it is best to get a software that best fits our business, as this will avoid the heavy task of changing data site and having to fill new information.
