## Reviews

### Review — 1.0/5

> **Chris** | *16 November 2012*
> 
> I made the mistake of purchasing CAM software for the gift shops I oversee. Unfortunately because of the size of the business and the website component we have been forced to continue with this system. CAM has not only been the worst company regarding customer service and fees, but in addition, there software has so many problems that it is a daily task to try and keep this system running. Thanks god I have the help of 2-3 highly trained IT people that work for this organization in other areas who have been able to help. However, every time there is an upgrade to fix all of the current problems more problems are created. Countless error reports, Error messages, Random shut downs, Polling/communications issues leading to additional incorrect reports.

### "Highly Recommend RetailSTAR" — 5.0/5

> **Tom** | *1 November 2016* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I particularly like that all the functionality is provided in a single platform. This helps me streamline my daily processes. I offer gift cards and manage markdowns which have increased sales and customer satisfaction throughout our 10 stores. RetailSTAR also provides my accounting staff with exactly what they need including a balance sheet that is up to date.
> 
> RetailSTAR is by far the best POS system our staff has used. CAM Commerce provided us with hands-on training to quickly onboard all our staff, and we have since improved the customer experience at checkout. The backend is powerful, yet easy to use, and allows me to track inventory and ensure accurate stock levels. With the holiday season approaching I am confident in our ability to keep up. Overall, great retail solution\!

### "RetailSTAR is great\!" — 5.0/5

> **Joyce** | *26 June 2015* | Museums & Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very easy to train new employees to use this software. The tech support is wonderful. They will stay with you until your problem is solved.
> 
> **Cons**: Only thing I would change is there are some minor differences in the way different modules work which is most likely because a different programmer wrote it. I notice it because I have been using it over 15 years but none of my staff do so probably not a big deal.

### "Very small specialty retailer, longtime user" — 5.0/5

> **Anne** | *11 April 2017* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: easy, great customer database
> 
> **Cons**: too much...I only need a fraction of what's available (and I wish it were still free and basic\!)
> 
> This is an easy to use system for my small one person store.  I don't need or use the fancy bells and whistles; basically, just the POS, inventory and customer database, which works great for me.  I upgraded from the free Retail ICE program years ago.  The customer support was great helping with the upgrade and the monthly fee (no, not free anymore) is reasonable.

### "very helpful and knowledgeable" — 5.0/5

> **jacob** | *11 December 2018* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The support staff is knowledgeable and quick to help or research an issue. The top tier support team knows the ins and outs of this system.
> 
> **Cons**: There are some proprietary components not accessible to the common user. This is normal and meant as a precautionary mechanism to protect the software from mistakes.
> 
> They were willing to help at the last minute which was a big deal to us.
