Meet Windward At The Show
Windward Software will be exhibiting in our shared showroom TM 4432-09 at the International Lighting Show—which runs June, 22nd-25th. We're on the 4th floor of the Trade Mart at Dallas Market Center
We are sharing space with our partners XO Logic and SPECTRA Marketing Group.
We'll also be sure to spend some quality time with our Lighting One and Lights America partners as well.
The Dallas Market Center hosts some of the world’s marquee wholesale events across several retail sectors. Lightovation is one of the biggest shows that they host.
This five-day, biannual event (the other one is typically held in January) draws thousands of buyers—ranging from small boutiques all the way up to major retailers—in search of the latest trends and product lines for both residential and commercial applications.

Switch on Lighting Showroom Control
While Windward’s point of sale software will work for pretty much any kind of retail business, the program features a series of industry-specific ‘soft switches’ that unlock enhanced functionality. Lighting showrooms face many unique challenges and our software is designed to address them.
For instance, a common challenge for many lighting stores is establishing pricing for retail customers and contractors. With System Five POS software, you can assign price levels or even contract pricing based on customer type.
Another innovative feature of this software is the ability to assign room-specific shipping labels. Basically, these give your warehouse and delivery personnel and even lighting installers an easy-to-follow guide for a specific project. These labels contain useful information such as:
- Contractor name
- Room description
- Name of fixture
- Bulb type
