After testing QuickBooks Point of Sale Pro for Retailers, we find it affordable, especially given the start-up costs of a small business. QuickBooks Point of Sale comes in a variety of pricing packages that differ depending on how many shops you own or how much hardware you want to buy. The Point of Sale 4.0 software ($700 for the Basic version, $1,000 for the Pro version) has a revamped interface cribbed from the popular QuickBooks accounting app, and it's much easier to navigate than its predecessor. This system automates the drudge work that small retailers often do manually: tracking inventory, creating purchase orders, determining sales taxes, and the like. It includes management software, a bar code scanner, a credit card reader, a receipt printer, and a cash drawer. The QuickBooks Point of Sale Pro for Retailers 4.0 software and hardware bundle is like a cash register with smarts. If you're ready to hang the shingle on a new business, Intuit offers a turnkey software and hardware package that's worth a look for mom-and-pop retailers.
