Pros

“The ability to customize the system using the Clover App Market allows you to add specific functionality (like specialized loyalty programs or advanced inventory tracking) as your business grows.”

Pros

“The support failed to highlight some options like multiple versions on 1 product. If they focused on some basics like sorting fields, better reports you can print it would be a really good replacement for the Intuit Quickbooks POS..”

“Their program to enter work orders and remove product from inventory was amazing! ”

“I ran this system in my shop for a year, it was expensive ($100 more than the system I went back to).”

Cons

“I would not recommend signing up with Clover POS. If you’re considering it, read the contract extremely carefully and make sure you fully understand the cancellation, equipment rental, and long-term fee obligations before you sign anything.”

“A duplicate charge caused by clover system during a service outage cannot be refunded—by me or by their support team.”

Anything and everything

“It is not intuitive for example when searching for something if spacing or capitalization is off it will not find the item.”

Cons

“They charged a ton of money to do no website design and then presented a trashy website builder that does not let you edit the style/design of your site.”
