"Bravo Store Systems Helped me Manage my store on a whole new level!"

  | Posted 2023-10-27

Pros: The Inventory management including SKUs in Bravo was so helpful compared to my previous software. I was able to manage my pawn transactions and my firearm transactions with ease including all of the compliance that comes along with both of these types of transactions. I really liked the digital E4473 they provide and develop in house, and the automatic 3310's. We utilize their Ecommerce features as well and they have helped us continue to turn our in store inventory on a more regular basis. The reporting also helped me get a really in depth look at my business activities with a lot of detail. My employees were able to get into Bravo and start working really fast it was easy to understand, and when we needed help Bravo actually helped us train new employees!

Overall: Overall I'm very impressed with what they have to offer and the attention they pay to what the customer wants/needs. When I need something there is always someone there to help out. I have also seen my sales increase from the efficiency of their system and from the Ecommerce options they offer!

"Best in the Business"

  | Posted 2023-10-27

Pros: I have used numerous different pawn POS systems over the years: Pawndex, Pawnmaster, Pawnmate, Muns, and Bravo. I can unequivocally say that Bravo is hands-down, far and away, the best. From eBay integration, the Estimator, Customer Loyalty, Business Intelligence, a streamlined e4473 process, a mobile payment app, an easy-to-use Physical Inventory module, and much more, there is no comparison. Other systems may do one or two of those things, but Bravo is the only one that does them all. Moreover, they are still developing great new ideas to further improve their lead as the frontrunner within this space.

Overall: Overall, I can't imagine operating on any other POS platform. Bravo is a world-class product and deserves your attention for at least a demo. But you've been warned: once you try it, there's no going back!

"Easiest, Most All In One Platform Available"

  | Posted 2023-10-26

Pros: There is too much to list. Bravo has a smooth, very modern, very sleek interface that is easy to navigate. Some of my personal highlights: Inventory Management Loan Management Layaway Management Custom Ad Hoc Reporting E4473 With Cloud Storage SMS Messages MobilePawn Buya E-Commerce eBay integration Retail Store Support

Overall: Bravo is a great platform for your retail store, pawnshop, and firearm store. Converting is easy, it is a cakewalk to learn the new platform, coming from someone who has personally used other platforms, from the basic to the elaborate "Master" systems.

"Bravo POS & E4473"

  | Posted 2023-04-12

Pros: Bravo is very in tune with its customers and listening to our needs. They frequently update the software to keep up with all firearm industry regulations. Also with the along wit the Firearm updates Bravo is always improving their systems to stay ahead of the for ever changing world we live. Lastly the cloud based system is so nice, I have 2 locations and it makes everyday operating a breeze.

Overall: We have been in the Firearms retail Industry for over 35 years and a Bravo user since 2018. Our overall experience with Bravo has been GREAT. The Technical support is very helpful and truly understand what it takes to run a successful business. Inventory management is very important to Bravo and the best feature of Bravo for me is E4473 and the recorded keeping of the firearms. Ive been through ATF audits and the Agents complement Bravo and the way it performs.

"Best Pawnshop / Gun Store Software Out There"

  | Posted 2023-03-21

Pros: Bravo makes pawn easy and effortless. They are constantly innovating in areas where other pawn software companies do not. eBay KPI makes it easy to have your entire store for sale in shop and online without duplicate sells being an issue, therefore increasing sales. Pawning, buying and selling can all be done in one transaction screen making the transactions quicker. Customers get the MobilePawn app which allows them to pay on their pawns while the store is closed. The E4473 feature is also something we absolutely cannot live without now and every shop that sells guns should have it.

Overall: Overall - most people I recommend Bravo to complain about the cost at first, but I truly believe that cost is offset by how much more you are going to make by running Bravo. I would recommend it to every pawnshop and I would recommend E4473 to every gun shop as well.

"Bravo to Bravo Software "

  | Posted 2023-03-20

Pros: Bravo is a great pawn software with terrific customer service. They, in my opinion, are always looking for ways to improve and keep up with the ever changing world of technology and change in laws on federal and state levels. When I call with a question I always get a call back quickly if they aren’t able to take my call right away. They are courteous and professional.

Overall: Overall it continues to be a great experience with Bravo. Customer service is the best I’ve experienced with three other softwares over 30 years.
