Paladin alternative questions
- What is the best Paladin alternative for a hardware store?
- It depends on what pushed you away. For pack units, contractor terms and bin locations at a published per-store price, Hardware Store POS fits; for other needs, Epicor Eagle / BisTrack or Lightspeed Retail may suit better.
- Why do hardware stores leave Paladin?
- The usual reasons: published prices without a quote; per-store, not per-user pricing; no contract.
- How long does switching take?
- A prepared item file imports in under an hour; most stores run both systems for a week, then switch on a quiet day.
- Will I lose my sales history?
- Products, customers, balances and stock move across. Old sales history usually stays as an export or report from the old system for your records.
- Is there a free trial?
- Yes, 21 days, no card to start.
- Is this list biased?
- We make one of the products listed, so yes, read it knowing that. We list the others with honest notes and dated prices so you can check them yourself.
- Can I move my Paladin data?
- Export products, customers and balances to CSV/Excel and map them into our templates; we help on Yard and Branches.
- Does Paladin work outside the US?
- Paladin is focused on US stores. Hardware Store POS is sold and priced in the UAE and Pakistan as well as the USA.
