What STORIS is
One industry, one product. STORIS is a retail platform built for home furnishings and nothing else, pulling point of sale, inventory, merchandising, delivery logistics, accounting, and e-commerce into a single system that the vendor positions as a furniture retail ERP. More than 35 years in that single vertical have produced a customer base running from single showrooms to large multi-location chains.
The company behind it
STORIS, Inc. was founded in 1989 and works out of Mount Arlington, New Jersey. It is still privately held and has not been through the ownership churn that reshaped several competitors in furniture software. The product line has grown around the core platform: NextGen, a browser-based mobile point of sale, and eSTORIS, the integrated e-commerce storefront. Development in recent years has pointed at unified commerce. In 2025 the company added mobile barcode data capture through a Scanbot SDK partnership and embedded multi-lender consumer financing through LendPro.
Core functionality
The suite tracks a furniture sale from showroom to living room. Point of sale handles special orders, inventory control spans warehouses and showrooms, and merchandising, pricing, and purchase order management sit alongside delivery scheduling with route optimization. Finance is included as a general ledger with accounts payable and receivable. On the customer side there is CRM, consumer financing integration, and an e-commerce layer working from the same inventory and pricing records as the physical stores. Reporting and business intelligence dashboards complete the picture.
Best-fit companies
Furniture, bedding, appliance, and home decor retailers in the United States and Canada are the addressable market, from single-store independents up to large chains. American Furniture Warehouse is a publicly named user of the financing integration. General retail and manufacturing accounts are not pursued, and that restraint is the point: the roadmap keeps going deeper into furniture-specific mechanics such as special orders, split deliveries, and vendor drop shipping.
Deployment and pricing
The platform is offered cloud-hosted, the NextGen point of sale runs in a standard browser, and established customers still operate on-premises installations. Prices are not published. Licensing is quoted per project against store count, users, and modules, which makes a multi-year model worth building before comparing offers; our ERP TCO calculator gives that comparison a structure.
Where it wins, where it loses
Wins: a multi-store furniture retailer that has outgrown a generic POS bolted to an accounting package gets special orders, delivery logistics, and consumer financing as native functions instead of integrations somebody has to keep alive. Few US vertical solutions reach this far into furniture retail. Loses: manufacturers, wholesalers outside home goods, and mixed-category retailers get nothing from the specialization and would pay for depth they cannot use. Two risks belong in the decision. STORIS is a single midsize vendor with no second source, and the established core platform and the newer NextGen and eSTORIS products need to line up cleanly in your specific rollout plan, which is worth testing during a structured selection process.
