I need to integrate both with some kind of program that can keep track of everything from sales to inventory. I do not have a computerized system for the physical store yet and have a very bad system for the online store right now, and would like to find a very efficient way of doing it all.

Thank you for any advice.

When I owned 2BigFeet.com, we had about 90% Internet sales and maybe 10% walk-ins. We used Stone Edge Order Manager for 3 reasons.

  1. It worked beautifully- did everything you're asking for and then some.
  2. It was affordable (~$1,500)
  3. We bought it in '02, and at the time, there was little else to choose from.

There are more options available now. One that I'm hearing great things about is Magento. It's open source, so your developers can customize it however you wish. And, since it's open source, it's FREE! Check it out and let me know what you think.

If you ever decide you'd like to save on your CC processing, please call me. I'd appreciate the opportunity to talk to you!

I'd take a good look at StoneEdge. It's gotten pretty good at that sort of integration.
