Love this software. It makes it so easy to collect payment from clients and they are always impressed with the technology.
Nothing! I find this software to be exceptional and a great addition to the business.

I love using square. It makes purchasing easy with a card. I especially like the that it remembers me, and texts receipts.
That not everyone uses it. It’s so easy and inexpensive.

I think square has Jedi mind tricks because months ago when I initially went to their website. The following week I received square POS promo in the mail to check them out. At the time didn't need it but recently did business for a booth and we used the square on the go POS. A family member wanted me to help them at an exhibition so we decided to utilize square for the whole weekend. It was quick easy and pretty fast even the setup was fairly simple. I definitely recommend them if you are a merchant that has to conduct business at exhibitions or trade shows!
They have account reps that work with you through the process, they make it pretty easy for you to use their service.

I love the simplicity of using this software.
Compared to other POS software, it's stands above the rest. It never has to load for long periods. Smoothly processes payment without hassle.

Easy to use payment option for small businesses. Works every time! Transferring money is fast!
Sometimes complicated when multiple credit card payments are used on one transaction.

Square POS is really easy to use and really fast. We have no issues with the Software
I think that there are not enough features and options available. For example we would like to add the cost of each product but we cant

Easy to use - very little equipment required - gives businesses of any size the ability to accept credit card payments
Does feel less professional than a traditional carb reader but this will likely change over time

When people do not have cash, Square makes the sale happen.
Whenever I meet someone interested in buying one of my books, the transaction can be done virtually anywhere.
Nothing. I have had no bad experiances using Square to date.

Square allows me to take a card, no matter where I am. It is very easy to setup and use even the most novice sellers are able to use it. It’s that easy.
A different device is required to use chip technology.

I use to sell jewelry through a party system and it was nice to be able to have the option for clients to use debit or credit cards and not have to rely on cash/check payments. This was not only convenient for me but also everyone attending the party who wanted to make a purchase.
I liked being able to take various forms of payment whenever I made a sale - it was not longer limited to cash and check purchases only.
I had to make sure I had a good connection and I preferred not to work on wifi for security seasons. I was worried about my clients information to a certain degree.

The layout and process of completing a sale is very simple: choose items, select a payment, process, and send receipt (optional)
The shopping cart doesn't always update.

It is easy to use. The equipment isn’t too bulky and it’s nice to manage our inventory with this.
The fees, but they aren’t bad enough, just part of using the program.

The best thing about square is that it is very easy to use.Very small so doesn't take up much space.
It can be challenging to swipe from time to time,multiple attempts need to made .

Overall, the experience using square has been easy, fast and enjoyable.
This product has great features. to name a few, no monthly fees, affordable chip readers, excellent support and free tools for selling online.
There has not been many things we found to not like about this software. Most of the down stands I would think would be for bigger companies, which we are not.

I think Square Point of Sale is a great product
It plugs into your smartphone and is easy to use
The checkout system could be more customizable

Overall, I really like this program.
The instant charging capabilities. I was able to sell a photograph on the spot!
Not at this time. I haven't used it enough to not like it.

I offer a service and am always out on location when it comes time to collect payment. I have a reader that easily and quickly pairs with my phone and the app so I can collect payments anywhere.
The reader I purchased came with an old connection reader that fits into a headphone jack. With my iPhone I would have preferred to receive the updated connection, but they said it defaults to the one I received. It's just collecting dust since it's not the right fit for my phone.

Great way for small business owners to take credit cards on the spot!
There really aren't any cons... user friendly. (unless you want to count the fees charged, but they've got to make money somehow).

Square is so convenient to have when you are selling products on the go.
Sometimes you have to swipe the customer's card a few times for the transaction to go through.

There are many good benefits for anyone interested in getting one of these for their business
I like the ease and functionality of it. It’s portable and easy to use for my business. I can accept credit and debit easily
Getting ahold of customer service if there is a issue takes a while sometimes but overall not bad at all
