You can put it in to a inactive file, but if that part has 3 or 4 descriptions, its very time consuming. ----- ### "I have been using RB since 2007 and I love it\!" — 5.0/5 > **Karri** | *7 March 2018* > > **Pros**: I have three separate locations and it syncs them all together so I know what inventory is at all locations at any time and AR. ----- ### "AWESOME" — 5.0/5 > **Karri** | *28 May 2021* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Inventory management between 3 locations and the ability to schedule service. > > **Cons**: Inventory isn't always correct, but way better than the way we did before. RB is by no means perfect but it's as close to it that I have found and easy to use and train people on. > > I have used RB since 2007 and absolutely love the software. It has helped in so many areas of our business. ----- ### "Semi Happy" — 3.0/5 > **Kenneth** | *28 October 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The program is a whole package. Scheduling, Billing, POS > > **Cons**: I wished it was on the cloud. I am constantly having issues with glitches. I come in and I cannot access RB. It takes hours sometimes to clear up the issues. Sometimes RB says its on there end and then sometimes they say its my server. 2 times in the last two months I was unable to print the schedules for my guys and we are completely shut down until it is straightened out. I have learned to print the schedules the night before just in case and that has saved me. I would like a more stream line set up than Mobile Live. Its very antiquated compared to other pool service software mobile apps. Always having connection issues. No before and after pictures with time stamps. > > I have been with them for a long time and they are good people. I just feel like in just a few aspects they are being left behind. I do not want to leave but I am going to have too. ----- ### "Not the best support for larger implementations" — 4.0/5 > **Vincent** | *11 November 2019* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Works well when it is operational. typically problem free. Has all of the features a pool store would need. > > **Cons**: The pool company is 100% dependent on the vendor for support and/or moving this to a new PC/Server. RB Support dictates to the pool store on how the migrations will be performed and scheduled regardless of the pool stores preferences. We have a larger implementation with a chain of stores and our setup is a little more complex and they are not willing to allow us to run the new system in parallel for testing prior to cut-over. "All or none" policy. > > We like the centralized database (although using access) so all of our inventory and customers are in a single database. It also supports remote desktop and Remote Web Apps implementation but requires each client to be set up individually due to the way they do the licensing. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/158830/rb-control-systems?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/158830/rb-control-systems) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
