What PointCentric is
PointCentric is a browser-based retail management system for home furnishings retailers, developed by Myriad Software. Sales, inventory, merchandising, delivery, and accounting sit in one cloud application that runs on tablets, laptops, and desktop browsers. The intended buyer is the independent retailer that wants an integrated system and no servers to look after.
The company behind it
Myriad Software has served furniture retailers for more than three decades from San Diego, California. Its earlier client-server line, Eclicktic, became a widely used system among independent home furnishings dealers across North America. PointCentric arrived in 2019 as the web-native successor, moving the same functional territory into a touch-friendly browser interface and a SaaS delivery model, and iterative releases have since added notification, CRM, and product interface improvements. Myriad is a Home Furnishings Association solution partner and exhibits at the High Point Market.
What it covers
Point of sale and order entry with special order tracking, inventory management with barcoding, merchandising and purchasing, delivery scheduling, and integrated accounting with general ledger, accounts payable, and banking functions. Payment processing and an integrated web shopping cart tie the showroom to online sales, and reporting draws on sales, inventory, and financial data from a single database. The hosted platform includes rolling 30-day backups for disaster recovery.
The audience follows from that scope. Core customers are independent furniture retailers in the United States and Canada, usually single-store or small multi-store operations, plus bedding, appliance, and flooring dealers whose business turns on special orders and scheduled home delivery. Myriad positions the product for retailers moving up from generic POS or accounting packages to something industry-specific.
How it is sold
Cloud only. There is no on-premises version, and access happens through a standard browser on whatever device the staff already use. Pricing is not published; quotes are built per retailer around users and modules. Budget beyond the subscription for data migration out of legacy systems such as Eclicktic, and for training during the changeover.
Our take
PointCentric knows what it is: web-native retail management for independent home furnishings dealers, with fewer enterprise features than STORIS or RETAILvantage and a correspondingly lighter footprint. The vendor itself calls it a retail management system; the integrated accounting module is what pushes it toward ERP territory. For a small independent that wants sales-floor mobility and one place for sales, stock, and books, it is a practical choice.
Retailers with complex warehousing or serious e-commerce ambitions should look elsewhere. The scope will start to pinch quickly, and the larger vertical suites deserve their place in a structured selection process instead.
