"Tools2Win® is...AWESOME!
I have only been using it for a few months, but it has already saved countless hours, increased sales, increased efficiency and reduced unproductive inventory. The Open to Buy report, Sales Analysis run by category, vendor by week to date, month to date, year to date and progress toward goals, is automatically sent via email to my computer. I don't have to run any reports! How easy is that? ."

"Tools2Win® has totally changed how I work. It used to be that I only had time to run reports and work on main categories between markets. Now with the reports in Tools2Win®, I can look at trends and sales in all departments – that includes entertainment, living room tables, accents, etc. Those normally would get overlooked. We found out that we had a best-selling occasional table set at our main location that we didn’t show at our other location."

"We have found a lot of the data gathered by Tools2Win® to be of great value. The price tag feature allows us to customize our tags to each promotion. We utilize the sales report on a daily basis along with our one-on-one sit down with each designer. There are other reports we are using to evaluate our freight, floor line-up, best sellers by family, and so much more. The text we receive each day is a great snapshot of where we were last year and where we are in real time with our sales goals.."
