User opinions about Clover price and value

Value for money rating:

Of 77 reviews that provide robust commentary on Clover's price and value, 35% mention it in a positive light.

Some users think Clover offers good value for money, particularly for small businesses with simple needs. They appreciate the affordability of the basic software suite and hardware, and the availability of many free or low-cost apps that enhance business operations. Some users report that Clover's payment processing rates are lower compared to other POS systems, and they find the pricing competitive and reasonable. Reviewers also mention the benefit of a 30-day free trial and discounts for non-profit institutions.

However, some reviewers feel that Clover's cost structure can be expensive, especially with additional costs for hardware, software, and transaction fees. They indicate that third-party apps, which are often necessary for enhanced functionality, come with added monthly costs. Some users report feeling misled by initial low rates that later increase, and they find the system's overall expense to be high compared to its value. Others mention being locked into costly contracts and facing expensive fees for equipment replacement or account reinstatement. These factors can be a barrier for smaller businesses or those with tight budgets.

Yessenia S.

Manager

“They downloaded an app not requested onto my account, they started charging me several hundred dollars each month, refused to try to refund, impossible to get through to the right department to correct, still charging me after I have cancelled all of my account and sold the equipment.”

AA

Alan A.

Owner

“Customer service support team hangs up, answers and then hangs up because "I don't want to deal with this today". and emails go unanswered for weeks. When I finally get in touch with someone over the phone, they put me on hold for 30 minutes to then transfer me to the end of the call survey, and then hangs up.”
