Pros

The secure web pay feature is very useful for customers to make payments and was pretty straight forward to implement into our website. I also appreciate that their fees are low and transparent.
It is easy to implement, its easy to bring up on the computer, its just fantastic. Ive been a user for 10 years.
We are very pleased with the support and ease of use from start to finish for this.

Pros

Makes for easy transfers in or out of my bank account and customer service is AMAZING. Customer Service is also available through chat, and I LOVE that.
I love Venmo and would recommend it to anyone who needs an easy way to send or request money. I have found it to be more user friendly than PayPal and other similar products.
The app is super easy to navigate and also is great for paying friends, because there is no fees like with paypal. The app is super inexpensive and an even be completely free if used a certain way.

Cons

Inability to customize some fields and viewing/changing of scheduled transactions.
The first iteration was new, and functions were missing.
Limited options for structuring the size and shape of deposits once they hit the destination account.

Cons

It is still hard to find our business even with the exact handle and there is no way to retract a payment if sent to wrong person. That's a little nerve racking if a client gets our @name wrong.
I understand from security reasons, but it is annoying. Apparently it is possible now, but has been a pain to figure out.
There is a potential of 'abuse' in that the transactions are irreversible. Also, the default setting is 'public.
