Oracle NetSuite is ending support for SuiteCommerce InStore (SCIS) and NetSuite Point of Sale (NSPOS). If you sell footwear or safetywear, this is the moment to move to a POS built for your business, not just the next system that plugs into NetSuite.
NetSuite is moving away from building its own point-of-sale products and focusing on core ERP. Support for SCIS and NetSuite POS continues for now, but changing POS touches your stores, staff, payments, inventory, taxes, customer records, reporting and hardware. The earlier you plan, the less it costs you.
Support end date as published by NetSuite partners. Confirm the exact terms for your account with your NetSuite account manager.
Most guides only list the first two, because most of them are written by vendors who still need you on NetSuite.
| POS + connector | Embedded NetSuite POS | WinSale | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Systems to run | POS + connector + NetSuite | NetSuite | WinSale only |
| Size / width / color | Varies by vendor | Varies by vendor | Native matrix per style |
| Footwear product data | Usually manual entry | Usually manual entry | 10M+ UPCs, 570+ vendors pre-loaded |
| Industrial / employer accounts | Rarely | Custom work in NetSuite | Subsidies, vouchers, signed-receipt invoicing |
| Mobile shoe trucks | Rarely | Rarely | Each truck is its own location |
| Accounting | NetSuite | NetSuite | Built in: AR, AP, GL |
| Support | Split between vendors | Vendor + NetSuite | One team, unlimited, US-based |
| Pricing | POS + connector + NetSuite fees | POS + NetSuite fees | $399 or $849/month, flat |
We'd rather tell you now than three months into a project.
In those cases, a connector-based or NetSuite-embedded POS is likely the better route, and we'll say so on the first call.
NetSuite partners report that support for SuiteCommerce InStore (SCIS) and NetSuite Point of Sale (NSPOS) ends on January 31, 2029. Confirm the exact terms for your account with your NetSuite account manager.
Partners report that NetSuite has no in-house replacement planned and is focusing on its core ERP. Retailers are expected to move to a third-party or partner-built POS.
No. WinSale is a complete system with its own inventory, accounting (AR, AP, GL), invoicing and eCommerce, so for most independent shoe and safetywear retailers it replaces what they used NetSuite for. If you need NetSuite as your ERP for other parts of your business, a connector-based or NetSuite-embedded POS may suit you better.
We've migrated stores off RICS, Prism POS, RetailEdge, Square setups and legacy DOS systems. Call us with your current setup and we'll tell you straight what can come over. Product data is usually the easy part: our 10M+ UPC database fills in vendor, style, size and price as you scan.
Most stores are running on WinSale within a week of signing up, and inventory onboarding can be as fast as 24 hours. Industrial accounts take a little longer because we set up your subsidy rules with you.
WinSale Basic is $399 per month and Pro is $849 per month with eCommerce and the B2B portal. No setup fees, no dealer markups, no per-transaction fees. See full pricing.
We wouldn't. Switching in your slow season, with time to train staff and run a full season on the new system, is far less risky than a rushed cutover near the deadline, when every other NetSuite retailer is migrating too.
Tell us how you use NetSuite POS today: your stores, vendors, accounts and reports. We'll show you how WinSale handles them, and tell you honestly whether it's the right move.
