Are there any contracts?
No, there is no commitment or contracts. All charges are month-to-month. You can cancel your account or change your plan at any time.
Is there an upfront cost for PDI CStore Essentials?
No, there are no upfront costs for our software. There is basic hardware that you will need to connect to your POS register (i.e. computer, cables, etc.). Some customers also get optional handheld scanners for inventory and delivery receiving. You can buy the hardware from us or from any online vendor. Depending on the hardware you buy, you may incur some one-time charges.
What hardware items do I need?
At the very least, you will need a computer. If you want the price book feature, you will need a kit to connect your back office computer to your POS register. The kit cost is $75 and you can purchase it from us or any office supply store. Some customers also get optional handheld scanners for nightly lottery readings, inventory and delivery receiving.
Which handheld scanners does PDI CStore Essentials support?

We support several scanners and configurations, from camera-based to Bluetooth and laser scanning. Here are some recommendations to help you choose the right device for you:

  1. Mobile phone camera (Good) - You can use our free app with camera on your iOS or Android phone to do all the functions that you can from most handheld scanners.
  2. Socket Bluetooth Scanner (Better) - Attach the Socket Scanner to the back of your mobile device for faster, more ergonomic scanning. Approximate price: $275
  3. CipherLab RS30 Laser Scanner (Best) - Use a dedicated mobile handheld scanner for super fast results. Approximate price: $850
If I cancel, what happens to my data?
Once you cancel you have the option to either remove your data from the system completely or get read-only access (view, print, download) to all your reports.
Is my data secure?
Of course. PDI CStore Essentials uses the same technology that online banks and brokerages use to transmit your data over the Internet. Your data is stored safely on servers in industry leading professionally managed data centers.
Is my data backed up?
Yes. We automatically back up your updated data every day, and maintain two copies of your data at any time. Your data is stored on firewall protected, redundant servers, protecting it from viruses, hackers and hardware and software failures.
What happens if the internet is down?
If the Internet connection at your location is down you won't be able to access your PDI CStore Essentials account. However, your POS register will still be available and you will be able to use it as normal.
