Voted the ‘#1 Apparel Retail Software’ by RIS Software LeaderBoard

In the RIS News’ annual ranking of the retail industry’s top retail software providers, Celerant has been named #1 point of sale for not only overall retail, but also specifically voted #1 for the apparel market.  Celerant was ranked number 1 in 12 other categories including: overall performance, leaders in ROI, Ease of installation, Quality of Support. One of the top client reviews for Leaderboard 2017 says “our two-year search for a single-source software partner led us to Celerant Technology. Our desire to run a fast growing based on data was severely limited by our previous provider’s output. Celerant’s Stratus POS product, operating cleanly in a web browser, was a very attractive front-end, while utilizing a powerful back end.”  Celerant’s custom E-Commerce websites provide multiple integrations to many different online apparel marketplaces while also offering full-service digital marketing with SEO and email automation.

“We are thrilled to enter the world of E-Commerce. This significant milestone fully rounds out our services and offerings, along with our 1,100 Cato stores. Now our customers have the opportunity to access our fashions and accessories at any time from the comfort of their own devices.”
– John Cato, Owner, Cato Fashions
