Look no further, Traxia is the BEST resale, consignment and new POS software on the market! Traxia has saved me so much time in all areas of my inventory process and endless reports. My conversion from the old POS software was flawless. Not only is the POS software user friendly but the customer service is like NO other. Wow, what a breath of fresh air! My only complaint is wishing I would of known about Traxia sooner.. Thank you Traxia for being # one!

It works well for things sold in our store. We can't figure out how to seamlessly integrate an online shopping model.
It works well for selling and consigning our stuff in our retail store.
We can not seemlessly integrate our POS with our online store. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] are struggling with Shopify and Traxia. Please help!
Hey Joe, thanks for your review! Part of it was redacted so I can't tell what is not working, contact me at dennis@traxia.com so we can get this sorted out and get you selling online!

SimpleConsign
Simple Consign has all the core elements we need to power our new business.
We are a combination of consignment, resale and retail. I love that SimpleConsign supports all of these types in both POS and overall inventory management. It is also fairly easy to train our new staff on POS components of the system. Also I'm very happy with the level of customer support from the Traxia team.
Because I have a software design and development background, I am perhaps more critical than most. I find many of the workflows very clunky and some of the interfaces do not follow UX best practices -- resulting in user errors that shouldn't happen. It doesn't feel like user-centered design. Many times when I'm trying to figure out how to get the system to support the tasks I want to do, I long for a peek at your schema and object model. The data relationships aren't always clear and results are often not what I would expect. I would love for the software to work better with and on multiple devices.
Thank you for your review Mara, this feedback is extremely valuable and I will be sending it to our dev team.

If you are looking to upgrade your POS software you need to look at SimpleConsign! Great value, great service and great features!
Lots of great features and are always looking at ways to improve the software. Recently added a price book option which will help keep pricing consistent. Love the discount feature so I can either do specific tag color discounts or category discounts. Support team is excellent and gets back to you very quickly.
Would love to see some new reporting options.
Thanks Frank! We couldn't ask for a better review. We really appreciate it. 5 out of 5 stars and 10 out of 10 recommendation! Wow! So glad you feel you're receiving "Great value, great service and great features!" Thanks, Team Traxia

The POS is extremely easy to use. There is also a rewards program incorporated in the POS that has saved us time and money. The Customer Service is excellent. When we have concerns or suggestions, we are contacted immediately and the issues are addressed if possible. They have listened to our needs and implement those needs when it is possible.
There are still a few areas that we would like to see changed or improved. Some of the printing issues have been a problem, but have been addressed. We would still like to see a sequential consignor numbering system, instead of a random number.
Thank you for your review Kathi, in regards to consignor numbers they are randomly generated so our system never has 2 consignors with the same numbers, this also comes into play when you have multiple locations so you do not have repeat numbers.

So, So glad I switched!
My store does consign and new product and simple consign handles it all! I used a different product for a number of years and keeping track of my new items was a nightmare. I love how easy Simple Consign is to keep track of all of our new inventory and to make changes. The History portion is very helpful. Simple Consign has easy integration with my online store. The fact that Simple Consign gives you...
I would love it the POS system integrated with your choice of a credit card company. Reports can be a challenging to figure out at first.
Thanks Michelle! We are continually looking at new processors to fit our customers needs. Thank you so much for being a great partner, and we look forward to many more years of success!

My first experience with a POS. I picked Simple Consign based on peer reviews on social media. I don't have anything to compare it with. Most interactions with staff have been pleasant.
Very few added features. They reach out and ask for suggestions but I'm not seeing ny changes made. Cost is very high compared to other. My cost has tripled since the start. But once in it's hard to switch.
Hey Sue, thank you so much for your review! Our last big update was Shopify, and we regularly have to update the plug-in as Shopify changes. We do however keep a list of all requested features and build a roadmap based off of the features.

SimpleConsign
The BEST Consignment Software a Small Business Owner Could Ask For!
With the complexity and variables that come along with running a consignment resale business, SimpleConsign POS system does an amazing job. I have had the best customer service experience with this company. They are very responsive and personable and understand that my success is their success, and vice versa. The software is simple and user-friendly, yet has a plethora of options to suit my needs. I am so happy I discovered this POS system!

We're a nonprofit thrift store that also has a "better boutique", which carries better designer labels. We do not accept consignment, but wanted a POS that can track the donors merchandise as well as being better informed of our inventory and sales. Simple consign was a way for us to has a POS system with little cash outlay other than the cost of the equipment. They make it very easy as they offer a compete hardware package at a reasonable cost. Their customer service is first rate.

We switched from a major POS after four years and have been pleased with the decision. The software does what is advertised, and support is responsive and friendly. We've already recommended this software to other resale shops.
Product is straight forward; setup and training has been easier than compared to competitor product. It has 'just what we need' for a smaller-scale resale business with one location and no full-time back office staff. Converting from the competitor was made easy by the tech staff who are friendly and knowledgeable. Tech has been responsive to support tickets, and their ticked system allows you to specify the urgency. The data connection to Quickbooks works well but is limited to payouts. Online videos and a good user manual are easily available for training and reference. Cloud-based data and Software as a Service means reduced technology demands on small business.
Because tag styles are tied to product categories, we are unable to easily print two tag types for jewelry (one for display to customer, one for butterfly tag on merchandise.) The online manual is great for 90% of needs; not all features are fully documented, especially for users who like to know the boundaries of what a product can do. Cloud-based does rely on a steady internet connection; this is not a major obstacle in 2018, and the benefits of hosting outweigh the challenges of storing the data in the local store.

SimpleConsign is the only POS software I’ve used and the only I want to use! As a hybrid consignment and gift store it meets my needs well! I like the small, intimate size of the company and an overall very pleased!
The ability to easily go back and forth from consignment and store inventory. The ease of use for training purposes. Easy check-out. Attentiveness and prompt assistance from customer support.
The inibility to use multiple cards in one purchase.
Lisa, do I have good news for you! The ability to use multiple cards in one transaction is on its way. Stay tuned for an announcement very soon. Thanks for the great review. Receiving 10 out of 10 and 5 stars means a great deal to us. We don't take our customers for granted and want to be sure we're giving you all that you need to manage your business.

I like that this product is cloud based. Our Internet was out but I was able to pull the pos software up on my phone in order to process transactions. I like the detail you can put in regards to the products as well as the customers and consignors.
There are two things I like least and hope for growth with this product. First, how we enter items is detailed but time consuming if you want to keep track of certain things within inventory. There are so many steps, buttons and things to enter it is easy to skip steps in order to be faster for our customers. Second, the reporting within the product could be better. I would like to have a clear report of inventory for a certain date range.
Thank you for your review Ashley, in the past couple of years we have been constantly and consistently improving a lot of our processes and reports, making it easier to upload inventory and run more detailed reports.

Simple Consign is the best module for our consignment company to manage our multi-store inventory. There are tons of great features built into the POS and Inventory Module. Creating reports is simple and there are ample options.

Consignment easy to input and use with credits
I don’t like that you can’t input new items in by size and have it appear on my online store on Shopify by size. You have to create a new item per size making it hard for customers to shop online and choose sizing. I’m currently looking for a pos system that will do this as it’s plays a big role in my sales.
Hey Natasha thanks for your review! We have added "variants" to our shopify plugin. So now you can just input one clothing item and make variants based on size. Please reach out to dennis@traxia.com so I can get you set up with everything you need to do variants for your online store.

Although we've been in the industry for many years this is a new retail home decor and gift shop venture and we did a lot of research on many POS systems and this was hands down our best option. We are thrilled with our decision and the SimpleConsign Team, especially our rep has been amazing! She was knowledgeable, easy to work with, patient, responsive and just really, really great! You are VERY lucky to have her.
This software checked practically all of our boxes on functions that we needed and wanted. It's easy to use and has a lot of great features and options.
We do wish that consignors had the option to print out their labels from home. The cost was definitely the highest.
Hi Pamela, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We can't ask for more that 5 out of 5 stars and 10 out of 10 overall! We agree with you about Cailin, our onboarding specialist. We are lucky to have her and so are all of our new customers. So happy to have you on Team Traxia!

Overall we are very happy. As a small store, SimpleConsign has all the features that we need at a price we can afford. The software has been easy to use, stable and support has been very fast to respond to any questions or issues we might have. We can work around the minor issues with little extra effort and our vendors love the real time access to their accounts and the ease of adding inventory. We would recommend any consignment store or vendor mall seriously look at SimpleConsing as their POS software.
The best aspect of SimpleConsign is the ease of use for both our store and our vendors. It is simple to add/edit/remove inventory or convert vendor inventory if abandoned. Consigner Access allows for direct uploading of inventory into the POS system by the vendor. Having bar codes on items eliminates the majority of errors in recording vendor sales and allows for faster chekout. Vendors do not have...
As this software was designed for consignment and we use it in a vendor mall the "Status" field becomes confusing to new vendors when an item changes from "Active" to "Expired". Vendors tend to think that the item is no longer available for sale. When a vendors sales do not exceed their rent and they have to do a "Pay In" the receipts that print out are fortune cookie size slips. A full size receipt...

I have had a great experience with Simple Consign. Every time I have needed to get help hooking up a printer or had any questions about how to do something, I have always been met with the nicest, (and most patient) people! They never make me feel like I am asking for help with something I should be doing on my own, or that they would rather be doing something else. Simple Consign has a GREAT customer support team! And you can't that about all companies!
I tested out about 4 or 5 other POS systems before choosing Simple Consign, and the main feature I needed was having a set-up that would link my in-store inventory to my website. I needed a system that would easily allow me to keep my items in sync, and Simple Consign does it seamlessly! Plus after having looked at several other systems, I just liked the look and ease-of-use of the Simple Consign Back Office. Also, I LOVE that all of my info in in the cloud, so if I am away from the office, and need to know something, I can look at it on my phone! So cool!
Well, in the beginning, it was that it wasn't completely compatible with MAC computers, but they fixed that!! So..... Nothing!
Wow Carrie! Can you see us blushing? Thanks so much for the fabulous review! We're thrilled you are thrilled with SimpleConsign. We so appreciate you choosing us to partner with you!
