Microsoft Dynamics RMS Preferred Over RockSolid POS for This House-Hasson Lumber and Hardware Dealer

Oneonta, AL, August 14, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Oneonta Discount Building Supply is a hardware and building supply retailer based out of Alabama. Oneonta has a close relationship with their primary distributor, House-Hasson, and has been working hand in hand with them since 2008, delivering everything from paint supplies to plumbing and electrical equipment to their customers. With a customer base of about 70% contractors and 30% ‘do it yourselfers’, Oneonta juggles a large amount of inventory with over 550 customer accounts; many of whom order different items and quantities each time.

In 2008, Oneonta started looking for another solution that would fit their needs. At a tradeshow, they came across two options, RockSolid POS® and Microsoft Dynamics® RMS. After evaluation, Oneonta was impressed with what System Solutions could offer in the Microsoft Dynamics RMS solution. Being a Microsoft product, Gray felt at ease because of its reliability and has used Microsoft based products in the past. The cost was also very reasonable compared to the other options. Gray explains, “Most of the other systems we looked at were about 50% more of an investment. Microsoft Dynamics RMS and System Solutions was a great fit for what we needed and at a price we could and can continue to afford.”

Gray was surprised that no one from System Solutions came to their location, but was even more surprised at how well it all worked out. Gray says, “Being able to pull off our implementation remotely was a true testament to System Solutions’ organization and communication skills.” He continues, “We have since experienced their hands-on support from afar and are very happy with the expertise we have access to daily.”

Automatic updates are now also possible with Oneonta’s distributor, House-Hasson. House-Hasson simply uploads their Purchase Orders and Microsoft Dynamics RMS is automatically updated with amount of inventory along with any price changes. Before this, Oneonta would have to manually key in about 20 pages of data into their system each time they received stock from House-Hasson.

Single and multi-hardware, lumber, rental, and farm stores can purchase Microsoft retail POS technology backed by an ecosystem of Microsoft trained retail professionals in every state. “With proprietary point of sale systems, retailers really have limited or no choices when it comes to available features or support options. These companies just don’t have the depth of retail knowledge, money, and resources of Microsoft and it’s ecosystem of retail partners,” says Dave Durrenberger of System Solutions LLC
