Point of Sale and Inventory Management suggestions

Ox AirtechFeb 2, 2026, 9:02 a.m. PST

So I use Quickbooks online for my primary company, but after recently upgrading my subscription to use the inventory feature for BB's, it's quickly apparent that this is not going to work for me. The Qty on Hand is rarely correct when viewing and I don't have a good solution for on the field sales.

I'm looking at Shopify and wonder if any small business owners have any feedback or other suggestions.

I do like how Shopify says it will integrate into my WordPress site, so I can ditch WooCommerce and possibly integrate into by QBO as well.

I had good experience with Lightspeed, but that was an in-person retail POS system. It's powerful when you integrate it really well but that is the key to any system. If your integration is good, it takes the pain away. If it is not, it adds a layer of complexity.

[quote data-userid="3" data-postid="87"] I'm looking at Shopify and wonder if any small business owners have any feedback or other suggestions. [/quote] Shopify has been really good for F-86. The statistics on sales, margins, ability to get stock input quickly and still look good has been a amazing. F-86 isn't my full time job so spending an evening entering data is a bit of work somedays. Shopify has made that easy. Going out to events as a vendor is easy, set location in your POS, add inventory to the location in bulk, sync to the data on your cellphone and take payment anywhere. Discounts, emails, shipping, financial trends. Its all there. Though I havn't checked recently, you do pay for it in a percentage of your sales and not sure if its higher or lower then square, lightspeed ect. This is on top of a monthly fee for hosting and such. I have no intention of switching.

A related question to the store, but I was wondering who the artiest for the Beaver Rebel was? Knowing who the human artiest behind products matters alot in today's day and age.
