Today, Hardware and Home Center dealers are challenged by the proliferation of "big box" retailers and a rapidly changing retail environment.  While still providing a superior level of customer service, Hardware and Home Center dealers must carefully manage their inventory, customers, and finances.  Adapting to constantly changing requirements to keep demanding customers coming through the door means Hardware and Home Center retailers are always pressed for time.  Consolidation and growth demands within the retail industry put even greater pressure on Hardware and Home Center retailers to stay ahead of their competition.

Activant provides in-store, retail computer systems that include fully integrated application modules for point-of-sale, scanning, inventory control, pricing, purchasing, accounts receivables and payables, special order processing, quote and bid processing, vendor and manufacturer communications, payroll, general ledger, high-speed credit card authorization, document management and more.
