We have had the best experience with the Orchid team. From the moment we connected with the team they have lead me through the process with kindness, patience, and expertise in our new POS system. The response time with all my questions have been timely, clear and knowledgeable. We are customers for life!

We can’t say enough about how helpful Toni has been throughout our compliance and licensing process. Her knowledge, professionalism, and responsiveness were beyond helpful — she went above and beyond to ensure we had clear guidance every step of the way. Orchid Advisors continues to be a trusted partner for our business, and Toni is a standout example of the quality support they deliver. Highly recommended.

We have been with Orchid for about a year and Toni has been an absolute game changer in the growth of our business. The POS software is complex and does far more than we could possibly master without her help. It can seem overwhelming, but every time I've needed any help, training, or guidance Toni has been right there to walk us through it. Any time we have needed anything from any department they have always responded quickly, which is very important when running a small retail shop. They are very receptive to feedback and this software gets better with every update. It's good to know that as my company grows, I have a team like this with her on my side. Thanks a million!!

Man where do I start? Nine years of using a pos system that was designed for restaurants was brutal. But we had “made” it work However all paperwork was still “PAPER” work. I had put off making the swap to eforms and a proper FFL based pos system long enough. From initially talking to Brandy. To signing up and working with Toni was absolutely perfect. Consider yourself lucky if Toni is your onboarding contact. She’s the best. My team and I really enjoyed the time with her as she brought us on board. The system is honestly intimidating from the surface. However her guidance and a lil digging in and we were completely transitioned in about two weeks. We even elected to hand inventory and hand out every item in our store in the system over handing files from the old pos system and wow there was some discrepancies and I am glad we chose the “harder” way. My time with Toni has ended and we just finished our third day of business as an Orchid backed store. Now we are opting for the full e-commerce store experience and I have no doubt it’ll go smoothly as well. Also we went with their fantastic card system and Jeremy made that a breeze. I truly think having orchid is going to improve my bottom line at my store and be worth every penny we spent. I need to add that I sat thru presentations from four of orchids competitors and I knew within minutes none compared to what orchid offered and the cost involved If you are ready to go from a small guy style store to growing into the big dog in your area.

As a firearms retailer with over three decades of experience, I've seen my share of POS systems. Orchid, however, stands head and shoulders above the rest. Initially, the shift from our trusty (and messy!) paper-based system to a digital platform felt daunting, but the Orchid team's exceptional customer service made the transition incredibly smooth. Their patience and willingness to answer my questions – and believe me, I had plenty – was greatly appreciated. The software itself is remarkably user-friendly; training both my long-term employees and new hires was a breeze. The intuitive interface means even those less tech-savvy can quickly master the system. After meticulously reviewing hundreds of transactions, I'm completely confident in Orchid's accuracy and reliability. It's truly an all-in-one solution that streamlines every aspect of our business, from inventory management to background checks. The comprehensive reporting features provide invaluable insights into sales trends and customer behavior. Overall, Orchid has not only modernized our operations but also significantly improved efficiency and accuracy. I wholeheartedly recommend Orchid to any firearms retailer looking to upgrade their POS system – it's a game-changer!

Took a bit to get a hold of them but after I got through Travis was very helpful even though I'm one of the little guys in this business.
