### "Look No Further" — 5.0/5

> **Philip** | *19 October 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to adapt to my needs (such  as $ to £, as I am in the UK) this is a clear and intuitive system. I was worried about spending alot of time building stock records, then to find I didn't like the system. I need not have worried. It is just what I was looking for. Superb value for money. Great customer support, and quickly resolving a couple of small issues.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing yet. I was expecting to spend hours working my way through a complex system, but within an hour I had the till working (Not a touch screen, but works just as well on a normal computer) and was adding my first stock.
> 
> If, like me, you are a small to middle size trader, wading through a bewildering array of POS software available, then look no further, This is the one you need. I would be happy to answer anyones questions about PreferredPOS.
