Stories and interesting posts on POS System Solutions and POS.
2020 is officially behind us, but its impact is still being felt. Digitization is accelerating, and businesses are leaning on new tools and technology in an increasingly digital world.
For companies seeking retail software, there are so many products available and so little time to adapt. Wouldn’t it be easier if there were a shortlist of the most consistently reliable and user-approved retail solutions on the market today?
Yes, it would. That’s why we created this list of 2020’s top retail software provider FrontRunners.
You have to know the past to understand the present, as they say—and understanding the best of 2020 will help position your business for a successful 2021.
Here’s the gist: We looked at all the vendors that placed in our retail FrontRunners reports released over the course of 2020. Then we ranked each vendor based on the number of lists its product offerings appeared in. In the event that two or more vendors tied, we listed them alphabetically (read our full FrontRunners methodology here).
Though each company on our list has multiple product offerings, we’ve pulled reviews information from the top product for each to shed some light on how users feel about these software platforms.
The end result? Your guide to the year’s top retail software, which you can find below.

Learn more about FrontRunners
We relied on Software Advice’s FrontRunners data to create this report. To create our FrontRunners reports, we consider recent, published user reviews for individual software products in order to score and rank them.
The data we collect for FrontRunners reports falls within a set time frame and is not updated after publication. For that reason, FrontRunners reports should be interpreted as a snapshot of reviews data.
To learn more about FrontRunners methodology, you can find our current version and explanations for inclusion criteria and scoring here.
