    Hi, trying to do some research on budget epos systems and the range is just staggering making it difficult to know where to start. Hoping someone might recommend one

    Looking for the following
    1) multi shop capabilities
    2) import large database of products (10k to 15k products)
    3) sales tracking and reporting
    4) barcode scanning
    5) cash drawer functionality
    6) customer order tracking

    Ideally I'm looking to just a cheap off the shelf product most likely cloud based. Happy to buy hardware separately if needed.

    Any thoughts?

    There's tons and tons that do all that now at a relatively low price depending on how many locations you are looking at. We used http://www.getpose.com it's a little more than others but I found the UI a lot more intuitive and the customer service is absolutely superb they would go to any length to help solve issues. The CRM system on it was excellent for us that would be a big strength of it because that was missing on a lot of the other products I tried.

    Homework question?

    Multiple shops, 10-15k products and you want a cheap system?

    Doomed from the start.

    If you are being serious and really do have multiple locations and 10k products, a proper mid range epos system will save you thousands every month.

    Thanks both.

    I'll check out getepos

    The system we are looking at (replacing a 15 yr old system) is coming in st 50k. For what this does, it just feels to me like it must be possible to do this off the shelf for a lot lot less. Will keep looking

    50k - crikey.

    We use ICR Touch. About 3000 products and 6 sites. Machines circa 1500 each, back office software about 5k.
