I've trained a volunteer to use it in a matter of minutes. It really takes the feel of a standard cash register, compatible with all sorts of Bluetooth devices for card readers, scanners, and printers. Looking up previous sales and daily totals by various segmented data is great, no needing to log into a separate program or computer interface. > > **Cons**: It can be a little bit of a pain when trying to work with both a keyboard and a Bluetooth device, or if you are using multiple terminals close to one another. I also dislike the open order feature, it defaults to saving any order you've started prior and just lists them for days. ----- ### "Normal POS system." — 4.0/5 > **Brian** | *7 September 2019* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Has lots of options. I can manage employess with this. > > **Cons**: It is not stable. Especially if I use this with 3~4stations , it is not working properly. ----- ### "Don’t do it" — 1.0/5 > **Erica** | *15 May 2024* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nothing. There is not one single thing that is good about this system > > **Cons**: Everything. Reporting is off, system constantly glitches. > > Unfortunately I was forced into using this system. From the moment I unboxed it, we’ve had nothing but problems. The initial set up was supposed to be plug \& play. Not so. Our onboarding specialist failed to tell me we needed a minimum WiFi speed for the system to even work. No one could figure out why the system couldn’t communicate. After talking to 10 different reps we were finally able to get someone that asked about our internet speed. I ended up having to triple our speed just to be able to use the product. Reporting constantly glitches. I have to have our servers go through their cash vs credit cards tips nightly to make sure their end of night deposit is accurate. We’ve had it off by hundreds of dollars, which either costs the restaurant money or the server money depending on which way the deposit is off. For more than 6 months, during the busiest gift card time of the year, you could not sell more than one gift card per transaction. Talech didn’t seem to care about this issue but it cost my business thousands of dollars in lost revenue because of the glitch. Printers are constantly dropping offline, so you have to go reset them \& enter them back in the back office on talech. Talech just updated their online reporting to a new experience. Problem is, the sales data doesn’t match the “classic” sales data. How can you have two different total sales figures just by switching between “classic” and “new”? Bottom line, if you’re thinking of switching to this as a restaurant POS, take my advice and DON’T DO IT. You will have more headaches than it’s worth, your financial data will be off, and half the time you won’t be able to sell a product because of some weird glitch in their system that they’re in no hurry to fix. ----- ### "Talech is better than a lot of others out there\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sarah** | *3 May 2023* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the ease of setting up your POS to work for your business. You can separate categories, product types, control your inventory, and so much more. Super easy to use and set up. It is easily explained to new hires and they pick it up very quickly. > > **Cons**: I think overall Talech is wonderful. Having 24 hour support is amazing, however, sometimes the wait time is a bit long to get someone on the line. > > 100% positive experience. Have been using Talech for over 5 years and will continue to use it\! ----- ### "Quality Software for Small-Scale Inventory Mgmt./POS" — 5.0/5 > **Lulie** | *26 September 2022* | Sporting Goods | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Talech can easily tackle small-scale inventory management and POS needs. User-friendly, and is easy to train new staff members to operate proficiently in. Software interface is minimal and easy to navigate. > > **Cons**: Inventory reports are difficult to customize, but can be done by calling/emailing Talech directly. Would like to see Talech improve in their report system with more features and user-customizable reports. > > Our Fishing Tackle/Outdoor storefront started small (less than 1,500 different product SKU's). When we first launched, Talech served our needs well, and would have continued to serve our needs. However, our business grew and we now maintain 8,000+ product SKU's. Unfortunatly for our situation, Talech's inventory management systems didn't grow with our company's growth. Large reports are difficult to obtain, and when we require special reports, it can be challenging to acquire them. This software is great to use if you do not plan to continually carry large quantities of inventory (Under 2,000 SKU's). This is not a hard rule of course, just our experience with this software product. ----- Page: 1 / 15\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/25763/talechregister?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/25763/talechregister) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
