Switch from QuickBooks Desktop
QuickBooks Desktop is accounting software that a lot of stores have stretched into a POS role over the years. It gets the books done, but it was never designed for the counter: no barcode scanning workflow, no real inventory management, no charge account handling built for supply retail. Rundoo brings over your data and gives you a system that was built for exactly this.
What stores switching from QuickBooks Desktop love
Stores running QuickBooks Desktop as their POS have usually been making it work for years through sheer willpower and a lot of manual processes. Here's what they tell us when they switch to something that was actually built for the job:
A real point-of-sale workflow. QuickBooks Desktop wasn't designed to ring up customers. There's no barcode scanning flow, no quick-add for walk-in sales, and no way to handle the pace of a busy counter. Rundoo's POS is built around the way supply stores actually sell: scan, charge, done, with support for charge accounts, contractor pricing, and split payments without leaving the register screen.
Inventory that doesn't live in a spreadsheet. Most QB Desktop stores track inventory in a combination of QuickBooks lists and Excel spreadsheets, with counts happening once a year if they're lucky. Rundoo's inventory management is real-time, with automatic reorder suggestions, cost tracking by vendor, and AI that flags anomalies before they become expensive mistakes.
Your accounting still works. One of the biggest fears stores have about leaving QuickBooks is losing their accounting workflow. Rundoo integrates with QuickBooks Online for stores that want to keep their books in the QuickBooks ecosystem while running their store on a real POS. You get the best of both worlds.
