IRIS review
A florist-focused system for order handling, delivery operations and store coordination.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
IRIS is florist-focused point-of-sale software for flower shops that need to manage orders across counter sales, pickup, delivery and wire-service workflows. Its order entry, customer records, inventory tracking and florist-specific printing cover core shop operations, while multi-store transfers suit businesses coordinating stock and deliveries across locations. The software is positioned for small and mid-market companies, with Windows and Mac computer support and iOS availability. Its offline operation with later synchronization is relevant for shops that need order handling to continue when connectivity is interrupted.
Delivery and store coordination are a notable part of IRIS’s scope. Routing includes mapping, GPS integration and manifests; inventory tools cover counts, tracking and product history, and customer profiles include order history and account balances. IRIS also supports wire-service send and receive workflows and reporting through IRIS Insight. For shops connecting online sales or accounting, listed integrations include WooCommerce, Shopify, BigCommerce, 3dcart, QuickBooks Online and Flower Shop Network. Deployment options span cloud, desktop and mobile, but buyers should check how their preferred combination of platform and integrations maps to the plan they select.
The published plans show Amethyst with two computer installations, sales, billing, reporting and order handling. Sapphire adds a choice of two among iPad POS, IRIS e-commerce or website integration, QuickBooks Online integration and recurring orders. Emerald includes delivery routing and the same two-option choice; Ruby includes routing and all four capabilities. Subscription amounts for these plans are not published. A 14-day trial is available, and optional Premier Tech Support costs $40 per computer per month for maintenance, daily scanning and remote support. IRIS suits florists prioritizing operational breadth, offline use and multi-store control; shops seeking a clearly priced subscription or a narrower, simpler setup may prefer to compare alternatives.
