Used consignment shop software

Whichever way you decide to go, best of luck to you!! Just had to say how much I love ConsignPro!!! I have a life now! I love the business but this program allows me a lot of extra time I didn't have before! Just did my first upgrade and its even better than before Thanks Brian! Your Wonderful!!!! I am so excited about this program that I can't even spell!!!

Fingers working out of sink with the brain sometimes! We were among some of the first consignment stores to use ConsignPro starting in The software is substantially improved since those early days and Brian Wilson has been receptive to suggested improvements over the years Dollar for dollar, I don't think you can find a more comprehensive software program to track inventory and sales As far as the software keeping track of your inventory, it most definitely will accomplish this for you as we use it to inventory all sorts of merchandise including clothing, artwork, furniture, etc.

In summary, I would not hesitate to recommend ConsignPro to you as it sounds like it would do very well for your application. And, again, all your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your assistance. It's good to see that there are still software companies out there that have such good customer service! I'm not familiar with your various software packages, or even with your company, but I can honestly tell people who ask that you have an excellent customer support department, and I hope that will speak volumes for you.

I use ConsignPro and opened my store with it about 15 months. It is very easy to use and is constantly being upgraded in response to all the input Brian receives from his customers.

Yearly maintenance fee is minimal and you get all the support you need. Never have had to use it, but in case I should ever have to, it is there.

Thank you for your continued support and constant improvements and updates to this software!!! Cutie Patutie's could not be the successful, growing store it is today without the help of your software. I love the new report features that allow for detailed inventory lookup reports to be printed.

This new feature makes it much easier to keep track of expired items and then take them down off the shelves! Three cheers and my biggest thank you for your continued support!! I've been open for a month now and your program has been so easy to use that my part time help who only knows how to use a computer for Ebay was able to sit down and do sales immediately with no trouble whatsoever. Neither of my non-computer helpers was even intimidated by it.

I signed it on for them, walked them through it once, and that's all it took! Also, when frantically trying to get everything set up on the Sunday before opening, I e-mailed expecting an answer sometime on Monday.

Well, I got an answer within the hour and was up and running in no time and ready for Monday morning. I've implemented several new programs for my husband's business and even one designed specifically for his industry, and I've never had the friendly, competent help that you have given so freely.

And knowing you monitor all the lists assures me that if I don't get the right answer from someone else, you're there to make sure I do. Thank you so much, Brian, and all your friendly crew. After 5 years in the consignment clothing business, I have always used a consignment program. Although the program I was using was good, I always dreaded calling for support which was only a couple times per year because of the unfriendly service I would get.

The problem alone was stressful enough, without having to deal with unfriendly support. When the time came to upgrade recently I decided to compare other software programs for features, and just as important to me, friendly support. I called several current ConsignPro users and receiving nothing but positive feedback. Several months have gone by now and I am thrilled with the program and the service I get from Brian and ConsignPro.

Not only is Brian very responsive and friendly, the program does everything and more than I expected. As most of us are small business owners and pride ourselves in being able to provide more of a personal services to OUR customers, I believe Brian does that for his clients resale shop owners. I highly recommend ConsignPro for any business needing this type of software.

Your ConsignPro system has saved our shop! When we bought our shop from the previous owner a little over a year ago, we were overwhelmed by paper work. I searched the web for a program to help us, tried many demos, listened to the experiences of shop owners on other systems, then, went with the best!

Brian has always been there to help me out with any problems that I have had! Thank you so much Brian! I have grown to love this program. The end of the day is wonderful!!! We should of done the scanning years ago!! I use to do all inputting by hand 3 to tickets a day. I'm also balancing now and not spending 2 hours after we close trying to figure out what I did wrong Your software has made it fun.

The comments I have gotten about having a computerized inventory system compared to the other shops in townis really going to make us a step above the rest.

I want to thank you for everything, you have made running my thrift shop so easy. I have talked to other thrift shops on other military posts and tell them about your program. It's the best on the market and being able to get the technical support anytime is great.

Thanks Brian. Has anyone told you lately how great you are? If not its long over due You're the greatest! Now this is why I'm so glad I chose ConsignPro, not only do we have great support for any minor problems usually not consign pro problem but operator problem we might have but the upgrades that I've experienced in my short time as a ConsignPro user has been unbelievable! Specifically, I sampled and tested various software packages.

I didn't even have to read the help file to start working in it. Service above the rest! I was skeptical, but you're definitely on top of it! Before purchasing ConsignPro I sorted through all the different bulleting boards and was impressed with the responses. Brian has time for us, plus taking care of his own customers. ConsignPro was the best investment I made. Thanks for the quality customer service, keep up the great work.

Your software has been the best investment that we made when starting out new this past August. I could not imagine what it would be like without it.

We have experienced the best customer service and support from your business and we love the new additions to the software. Your software allows us to give our customers what they want most, and that's to feel important. Allowing them access to their information does this. I can't wait to see how our new online store works out for us.

I believe we were the first to have ConsignPro in the area and have shared how great you are with other consignment shops in Janesville.

Just thought I'd let everyone know the outcome of my research… After looking at a half-a-dozen demo's I have decided to purchase ConsignPro software. Comparing software, I felt that each of the programs offered many time saving features, great reporting options, flexible options to allow for individual consignment store needs.

The two factors that really swayed my decision were: 1. How easy it was to use ConsignPro; after narrowing my search to three programs, I took my oldest staff member and my newest staff member and had each of them perform a number of transactions. They both caught on faster to the layout of ConsignPro and were able to do their "work" with very little instruction. Great customer service and support; I could read and follow along easily with the instruction manual and try things out as I read.

Lots of patience for all of the questions and unending explanations that I asked for. Ability to convert data from my old software. Thanks to everyone! It's about time that I tell everyone how outrageously wonderful you and your software are. I have been using ConsignPro since October 16, I was a novice to computers and especially to consignment.

The manual was very easy to read and apply. My updates are simple to install and the support I receive from Brian is fast and sufficient. At the end of the year when the IRS is knocking at my door all the information that I need is there. The price is right as compared to all others. I can't emphasize how grateful I am to Brian and his software but mostly the support I receive. God Bless You. Yesterday I recommended ConsignPro to a friend that is opening a new children's resale shop in Bellaire, Children's Collection's, and she, Yolanda, came upon a negative web site against Brian Wilson and told me about it.

I purchased the program for my store 10 years ago. I haven't had to call them for help except for 4 or 5 times but I was given immediate attention in a most friendly manner.

Two of the major problems had nothing to do with the program itself because my computers were stolen twice and the staff at Visual Horizons got the new computer reinstalled with ConsignPro and up and running very quickly.

At other times when I had any questions about the function of one of the tools within the program the "friendly" staff treated me with an attentive and professional attitude. I have seen this company expand added features of the program over the years that has helped my operations in running my business. I am a very satisfied customer of Visual Horizons and I do, and have, recommended this software to many people that have also been very satisfied.

I wish increasing success to Brian Wilson and his staff. It is good to see and deal with an honest and trustworthy organization such as this one. I just wanted to let you know how much I love Consign Pro. We had already used up our demo space. We were also surprised that all the information we had entered on the demo had been saved and we were able to continue on where we had left off.

So, I must say Brian Wilson was a life saver and we were able to get a lot of work done today that would of had to wait otherwise until Monday. You are doing better than I am! I called all the "major" and "minor" companies that sell any consignment related software I have heard of.

Only Brian sent me a demo immediately. My accountant and my husband not the same person lol both nagged at me to try another program before I bought something that expensive. I did finally get a Consign EZ diskette but none of the others has ever arrived. I am going with ConsignPro. I don't really care if I would like the others or not.

I don't care if they are cheaper. I care that when I have a problem and need assistance, someone will respond and so far Brian has far outpaced them all! I use ConsignPro, very easy to use and I think you get what you pay for.

The price might be a little higher but it is a good software. I am very pleased with it. When I first started thinking of going to computer, I had a conversation with Brian. He rubbed me the wrong way, we had couple words on this board and I bought Consign EZ for under a hundred dollars. I was very new with computers and he was VERY patient and helpful. Plus, the software is great and he is always updating it to make it better.

The Gypsy Trader now uses ConsignPro and loves it. It used a manual system. About the first thing I did was to install ConsignPro. Works great! Just about everything concerning sales, inventory and consignors are immediately available. Well, I could go on like a commercial but Go Brian! I'm glad to see you will be giving us an alternative to [that other resale website]. We love our ConsignPro and didn't want to give it up to go online.

We also have been very, very pleased with the support we receive from Brian, not that we need it often. Brian is always wonderful about updating the program when you want a new feature.

I was leary about computerizing our system when we opened 3 years ago we didn't for the first 6 months because of the nightmare a friend of ours was having when she computerized a shop she bought I don't know how many times the software has been bought and she has had to dish out additional money to "update" to the new owners and how many times she had major problems with the system and seemed to get no support.

Good luck to everybody who chooses to go online Mark me as one of the happiest software owners on the market - yes it is ConsignPro. If only all of our other business contacts could perform as well as ConsignPro and give the customer service that Brian does. It really did go without a hitch. My CB program was only purchased 1 yr ago but I anticipated lots of future problems in dealing with ResaleWorld.

In the last couple of weeks we've just about mastered ConsignPro, and Brian has been available for the few times we've had questions. Even the first day of using the new program everything ran smoothly and efficiently.

The customer service provided by Brian has been exemplary. I have never met Brian, do not work for ConsignPro, and we have not received any special treatment. We are simply happy customers who feel that we have received a quality product for our hard earned money Please feel free to email mepersonally with any questions. Thanks for the wonderful system. You can't believe how much easier you have made our lives here at Creative Consignment.

We are invoicing 60 to items per day and your system has helped do this for us and still give us time to maintain our store. You're the best! Thank you also for the support you gave us as we were setting up the system. One always wonders how much support you will actually get when you are offered "tech support".

You always answered our questions right away, even when I had to call you about my printer 4 times in one afternoon. We use ConsignPro - I agree with Bob. Brian has been invaluable to us. Hi, I have two stores. I like features of both; however, when it gets down to the nitty gritty, it is service and response that really matters. I have used Liberty since or and have yet to get help from their tech staff that was useful, although they charged me an arm and a leg for it.

Brian at ConsignPro not only has provided immediate help but has offered and has written changes to the program specifically for me. I recommend ConsignPro. I just opened my store 2 weeks ago and I use ConsignPro - I love it!! I demo'ed a lot of them before I decided to go with ConsignPro. It is simple and easy to use, yet does everything I need it to do. One of the main reasons though, is the flexibility of printing tags.

I use an ink-jet printer, but you can use almost any printer with this program. With other software programs, I found I was very limited. Thanks for your reply concerning ConsignPro software and the Y2K issue Thanks in advance for your reply. Victor Bray. So far this is the best and easiest to use program we have seen.

We are happy to have purchased a copy from you and your company. Leigh Ann, you will get as many recommendations for software as there are software companies. You should decide what features each software offers and which you feel you need for your store. Also other issues that may be important to you are the cost, how easy the program is to use, and the technical support you will get from the software company.

For us the answer was ConsignPro and we have never regretted it. We bought our software about 3 years ago when ConsignPro was just getting started and as our store has grown and we have wanted additional features in the software - ConsignPro has always been one step ahead of us in updating the software. On the rare occasions when we have had questions or experienced difficulty Brian has always quickly responded to our needs and has been able to talk us through the problems as if he was sitting next to us.

I have used Liberty for DOS since , the program itself is fine-it's the customer support and the people behind the program that are the problem!

If I were to do it all over again, without a doubt I would go with ConsignPro! Another conference attendee told me that Brian originally designed this program for his mother who herself owns a consignment store.

I would think that this gives Brian some real insight into the workings of a consignment store. I also saw the program in operation, and it has all the features anyone could possibly want. Whichever way you decide to go, best of luck to you!! Just had to say how much I love ConsignPro!!! I have a life now! I love the business but this program allows me a lot of extra time I didn't have before! Just did my first upgrade and its even better than before Thanks Brian! Your Wonderful!!!!

The Consignment Shop has been developed to offer everything a business needs to be successful.

My consignors love all the information I am able to give them at a moments notice. The reports and inventory maintenance that I am able to access at all times has freed up so much time I actually get to spend time with my customers!

The team at SBS Solutions offers consistent training and customer support. Thanks so much to all of you for assisting me every step of the way. I would recommend this program wholeheartedly! Trendy Consignments Lynn Smith, Owner. Our business has been active now for just over a year and I want you to know how much your personnel and your Consignment Software product have meant to the success we have enjoyed.

I remember when I was trying to set up my new equipment. You were on the phone with me walking me through the process of hooking up receipt printers, scanners, label printers, and the network.

This might not seem unusual for normal manufacturer support but this took place at pm on a Sunday night and I had no idea what I was doing. As time has passed any problem I have had, any question, or any suggestions has been dealt with quickly and efficiently. Almost every month there is a new improvement or added feature to our software program, including your latest feature allowing consignors to access their accounts on line.

Can I even begin to tell you how much time that will save us, not to mention the added exposure of our web site and our standings in comparison to other Consignment shops in our area. Now with over consignment items normally carried in our store and now almost registered consignors the need for the proper management software means the difference between our business success and total failure.

I cannot imagine what it would involve if I had selected another vendor that I was less satisfied with and now had to try and make a change. If you have anyone who is considering your software and would like to talk to a Consignment retailer about the benefits of your Consignment software I invite you to pass on my contact information to them.

That would be small repayment for your superior product support and the outstanding customer service I have received. First of all, I need to give you a little background so that you can fully appreciate what I'm about to tell you about " The Consignment Shop " software. I taught school for 28 years, so I'm educable. One of the reasons I retired yes I'm 60, almost 61 was because everything at school had to be done on the computer. It's not my favorite tool, except for writing to all my friends and shopping.

I spent several months looking at software and I had one year of experience with another software company. I was scared to go into business because of the software and computer. We had lots of problems with the other software and I was working with a young girl who was very computer savy.

We had to go in and re-enter the entire inventory for the store - not fun. After much research, I talked to John and was happy with everything he told me about the "The Consignment Shop " program which was all true.

The software arrived right on time, but I didn't open it for over a month, because I was scared. Finally, the day came and I had to open it and get started. There were step by step instructions and this is the easiest program I've ever had to deal with on a computer.

Now, that doesn't mean I haven't had a million questions, but John, BJ and Sylvia are the most helpful people in the world. They have not gotten upset with me one time at least not that I know of. One Sunday I called John while he was watching football and he had all the patience in the world for me. BJ is amazing!!! She has worked for hours with me because I have made some major mistakes no ones fault but my own. I told her one night, not once has she made me cry.

Sylvia has this wonderful voice that makes you want to stop and chat with her all afternoon. They didn't do anything to get me to write this. One more thing, when you go to the Sales Screen it lets you make all kinds of mistakes and it forgives you.

I moved to Western New York in the dead of winter from Florida, bringing with me my dream of starting a consignment shop. I began searching for software programs via the internet. It didn't take me long to realize it was the best one being offered. The simplicity of the program, yet the intricate detail, is unbelievable.

The program is literally "point and click". Everything you would ever need to run a consignment shop is in this program. My customers are impressed with my bar coded price tags, which include a markdown schedule. Although the program and instructions are so easy "a caveman can do it" I ran into some technical problems due to my lack of knowledge. I can easily navigate a computer, but am not savvy with connections, ports, devices, etc. I cannot emphasize enough how great John has been getting me up and running.

John even redid a template to print my price tags to my specifications. I have never experienced customer service to that degree. My advise to others who are looking into the consignment business is simple. Don't waste your precious time looking any further than this program. Request the Demo, load it and see for yourself. After reviewing demo's of several consignment shop software packages available we decided on The Consignment Shop.

We've been happily using it since December of We chose the software due to the ease of use - it was the most intuitive system we found. We were able to navigate the system without reading any documentation, but the documentation that they provided as well as their support helps to find answers when we're not sure how to use something.

We also liked the way that it integrated with the barcode scanner and receipt printer - basically plug it in and go. John Breidling has been nothing but professional and provides excellent customer support on his system. We have also been impressed by the enhancement requests that we have made that they have implemented in the system. Updates to the current version are also very easy to download and upgrade - no problems.

We would definitely recommend this system to both new shop owners starting up as well as to those converting from manual to automated. The time savings and inventory and sales accuracy more than pays for the cost of this system. Reruns 4 Little Ones Tampa, Florida www. The Consignment Shop. It not only makes keeping inventory easy but tracks daily expenses and figures out what you owe consignors!

It has so many great features that it amazes me each day. Really for the time that it saves it is worth so much more then the cost of the program. You not only have the wonderful user friendly software to work with but you have great support from John and B. J too. They are always just a phone call away to answer any questions or concerns.

They have been in the business and that really gives you a heads up too as they help your company get set up.

If you order it today I promise you that you will not look back it is the most amazing user friendly time saving program I have ever used! Thank -you John and B. I also have to agree with the other testimonials in that whenever I have a question or issue, I just send John an e-mail and he responds immediately or calls me. This is what I call 'support'. Thanks so much for this program and your support.

Before I opened my store, I downloaded demos from several software companies. I also emailed and talked to representatives from some of the companies. I decided to buy The Consignment Shop. The software allows me to easily keep up with each item in the store, run reports, and do many others functions necessary to running this business. There are too many features to name here. When I have questions, I can email or call John Breidling, the owner, and speak directly to him anytime.

But my favorite part of being a customer of The Consignment Shop. The program just keeps getting better and better! Recently I made two suggestions to John, and he incorporated them into the next update. Where else can you get service like that?

Highway 78 Wylie, TX Your program is working great for us and do not know how we operated without it. We would like to add that even though we are not computer savy shop owners, whenever we have a question relating to the SBS software we get immediate responses. After downloading and working with a number of Point of Sale, Inventory tracking and sales reporting software for consignment and other retail sales, SBSolutions', " The Consignment Shop.

I did spend time trying them all!. As a Systems Administrator, I was pleased with it's design and ease of setup for myself and ease of use for my wife.

Our clients are impressed to see a detailed report of their account and are easily able to wrap their minds around it's inventory tracking and feel comfortable with their items and account being tracked properly.

My wife likes the clean straight forward friendly user interface so I didn't have to spend too much time showing her how to use it. Clearly this software was designed by someone who needed the product themselves. Further the quick and responsive support for the few questions I had during my testing phase convinced me to buy. One more thing, my 8 year old daughter after only 2, 15 minute sessions with her is now ringing up sales and entering inventory. Now who can argue with that?

Tyson Mathews - What-A-Deal. Thank you so much for all your help - We really appreciate it! Your software makes the business of consigning so much more manageable than it would be without it. I cannot say enough about the TCS program, it has allowed us to spend more time on important issues like customer service. We have every report necessary to organize inventory and keep customers and consignors informed. I love being able to answer consignor questions immediately.

We have found it to be a very user friendly program and liked the set up far better than some of the other demo programs we tried. I have never had such great customer support before!

My emails are replied to right away or I receive a phone call. Any changes I have requested have been applied at no extra cost. You have created a product that we can trust and that's easy to use. The screens are easy to read and to navigate. We continue to be impressed by the software's ever-increasing functionality. More than that, the level of service you provide is extraordinary and cannot be surpassed.

You have dispelled the myth that excellent customer care is a thing of the past. As a new owner, we have many things to be concerned about. Thanks to you, The Consignment Shop. After paying to be trained on their program, I decided it was not for me. I researched for over 3 years not really wanting to go computer.

Change is hard for me. I would be happy to tell my story to anyone you want to pass my number on to. I only have praise for this system. I love it! Hi Everybody, Just a note to let anyone who is looking for consignment shop software that The Consignment Shop is the easiest and best that we have found. I am a computer illiterate and I can even do it. So hats off to John and Susan for a great job. Susan has been of considerable help to me since I don't have a clue what I'm doing.

She is always available and very friendly to boot. Thanks guys for a job well done!! I love The Consignment Shop Software, I have bragged about it to a few of my business friends so easy, anyone can use it immediately! I just love it, great on time. Klassy Klozet Mary Ruiz E. B Mission, Texas After having been in the consignment business for about a year, it was obvious the system we had in place was not working for us.

We were using a database that was difficult to extract the information from and we were getting bogged down in paperwork and file folders. We knew we needed to streamline our record keeping and free up our time. We searched for a solution and decided to try the demo version of The Consignment Shop software.

We were very impressed with the many functions and ease of use of the software. Now, many months later we wonder how we ever did without it. Its search capability alone when working with inventory has been a definite time saver and It is an excellent tool for any business whether it be a consignment store or a retail store needing a good point of sale system.

We are not only impressed by the software itself, but by the incredible service and support given by John and SBS Solutions. Having no experience with software or inventory systems of this type, we often have questions.

John's easily approachable manner and willingness to answer any question has only further proven to us that we made the right decision in choosing " The Consignment Shop ". The updates he provides pleasantly surprise us with new features all the time, often with some of our own suggestions built right in. I can easily recommend the software to any business searching for a solution of their own. The Consignment Shop software has made my transition into the "business-ownership" world in general, and into consignment specifically, sooooo easy.

One of the reasons I chose TCS over some of the other available programs was its user-friendly nature. The look and feel of TCS is intuitive and has proven to be efficient, effective and has taken much of the burden of retail business onto itself. Most any information regarding your day-to-day transactions or month-to-month and annual reports can be accessed with just a simple click or two on your keyboard.

TCS is constantly working to upgrade and improve their product. That's awesome! All that being said, the aspect of using the TCS system that I'm most satisfied with is the superior customer service. I have gotten tremendous support and enjoy doing business with TCS Mgmt. I highly recommend The Consignment Shop software.

I have been overall, very satisfied and look forward to the continuing benefits of using TCS. I'm a new consignment shop owner and therefore have not used other consignment programs, but I have found that this software offers everything that I need to run my business as well as things that I didn't even know that I needed!
