The Keystroke POS System:

- Is a computer program that enables PC-compatible computers to operate as cash registers and as inventory control systems. In other words, Keystroke POS is a completely automated retail management system.

- Can be used to replace electronic cash registers, or to serve as the front-end for third party accounting systems.

- Is a much faster, more flexible means of entering Sales and controlling inventory than are cash registers.

- Offers far more capabilities than traditional cash registers and is also much easier to use.

- Is the perfect solution to improve the profitability of nearly any business.

Thousands of independent retailers, wholesalers, service shops, and multiple-store chains rely upon Keystroke POS software and Specialized Business Solutions support services to help them manage their businesses.

Specialized Business Solutions is proud to announce the release of the next major revision of the Keystroke POS software system - Version 6.0! Many new, much-anticipated Version 6 features are now available! Keystroke POS Version 6 is a free upgrade for all registered users with a current Software Maintenance Service Plan.
