What is RetailEdge?
RetailEdge is a point of sale solution, which helps retail businesses manage inventory and sales orders. Key features of the platform include barcode scanning, item listing, customer history tracking, credit card processing, price management, invoicing, secure data storage, and gift card distribution.
The RetailEdge application enables managers to track the sale of goods, calculate sales margins, estimate profits, and monitor performance of specific items, vendors, or departments. Employees can use RetailEdge to track customer interests, store credits, and suitable discounts/promo codes in order to increase engagement among buyers. It allows supervisors to view stock levels and generate reorders to maintain inventory across multiple locations.

RetailEdge Reviews
We have been using RE since 2007 and have been very happy overall.
It's an effective way for us to manage our inventory and reports with out a high cost. I do wish there were a userface update to be more "modern" and the ability to look up customers who haven't been here since, say, 2015.
More in depth reporting can be beneficial as well.
Feature Rich, Robust & Easy to Use Store Management Software
In investigating RE, I emailed the company many, many times. I always got a prompt, complete reply that covered all of my concerns. They were patient and helped me transfer data twice, as the new computer crashed and had to be repaired, then the software reinstalled. In refining the program for my vitamin shop, they have been helpful every step of the way, often offering solutions from their own experience using RE.
Mostly good, with a few major frustrations.
Ease of checking out customers and keeping track of inventory.
Reliable, full featured and affordable POS
I can perform all of my inventory management processes and sales from anywhere. Even when I travel to Trade shows across the country, I am never impacted by internet issues.
Great system especially if you're internet is not stable
It works well with our current system.

We have been using RE since 2007 and have been very happy overall.
Pros
The affordability is nice, compared to others that I've shopped around for. We purchased our setup in 2007 and we have since added to it, and have a total of three key FOB's (2 machines, 1 backup) for our business.
I can operate the system in my sleep because I'm familiar w/ it, which makes it very hard to consider changing to another system. After digging into the features I was looking for, I found that with a modest purchase, RE can do everything that I want and need it to do.
Cons
I have asked for some features over the years that seem simple and would be useful for the wide variety of customers as well. However, I think my biggest dislike is the inability to get a beep when a negative item is scanned and we're not looking at the screen.
Example: We sell canned cat foods, and often times, we sell 24-72 of them at a time. Most of these cans have to be scanned at least once. Errors happen, and if our inventory is off or the items have arrived before being put in, there will be a negative. If you aren't looking at the screen, you'll simply not see the "are you sure" notification, which another scan of a can hits "ok"
We have trained ourself for the most part, but it would still be nice to have an alert.

-feature rich
-extreme value for the price

-easy to update inventory
Cons
- minor tweaks that may well be built in later- just getting used to another system, nothing really against RE
Mostly good, with a few major frustrations.
Ease of checking out customers and keeping track of inventory.
Pros
Pretty simple and explanatory interface. Not difficult to teach new hires how to use. Tech support is usually pretty speedy and efficient.
Cons
Every time there's an update with the software or with Windows 10, we have to call tech support because something becomes incompatible or switched off. Also unhappy that we started out being able to use our POS as a touch screen, and when Windows 10 became the operating system, it was no longer able to operate as touch screen, tacking on time to our checkout speed.
Some of the report functions are a bit tedious to use.
Many customers unhappy that we can't tell them how far along in the loyalty program they are without us doing some major research; wish it was just automatically tracked in their account.
Reliable, full featured and affordable POS
I can perform all of my inventory management processes and sales from anywhere. Even when I travel to Trade shows across the country, I am never impacted by internet issues.
Pros
This is a full featured POS and inventory management application that can run with or without an internet connection. All of this at a very reasonable initial investment price.
Cons
It does not integrated with my website database, Magento.
Response from High Meadow Business Solutions
Hi Donna, thank you for the kind words! We do have an integration with Magento through a third party called Modern Retail. Feel free to give us a call or email if you'd like to learn more!
Great system especially if you're internet is not stable
It works well with our current system.
Pros
We chose this software because we didn't have to pay a monthly fee (except for support). We liked that the inventory and reports are all included.
Cons
The software was a little confusing in the beginning. It's expensive to get new workstations but it pays for itself eventually when you use it for a longer amount of time.
Response from High Meadow Business Solutions
Hi Melissa, great feedback! We aim to keep your cost of ownership low with reasonable prices and little to no monthly fees so more money stays in your pocket. :) Thanks again! -Kayla
