Robert – We’ve been a Fishbowl Inventory user since mid-2008. Darn good product! For POS, we are using RMS. RMS’s days are numbered, and we are looking hard at SalesPoint. But here is a key capability of RMS, based on its batch approach to retail stores: If the connection to the server is down, we can still process sales, and then resynch when the server comes back up. Does Fishbowl have anything in the works that might allow the SalesPoint client to operate independently in this manner?
Thanks for using Fishbowl and for your valuable feedback. We’re not currently working on offline capabilities for SalesPoint, but it’s a great idea! feel free to contact me at your convenience to discuss this further – kendrick.hair@fishbowlinventory.com.
