Square for Retail Reviews - Page 5

I love that they have their own hardware or you can use standalone. the software can easily customized and tailored to your specific needs, simple easy to use screen makes transactions simple.

Reporting can be limited at times but easily overlooked due to the great build quality of the software. if you need very detailed reports then this may not suit your needs.

helps me get customers payment right then and there cant beat that

need an extra debit card just in order to withdraw your money

ease of use,able to train staff quickly,and it is very mobile will work almost anywhere

Can still use without internet but a bit tricky to use in offline mode

Easy to use - easy setup - use is for beginners up to experts. Take cards easily! Price is fair (per use).

Nothing I can think of - all worked well!

Easy easy easy easy to use! So simple and straight forward any associate can use it. Pricing was great from the get go! Big fans!

Wish the reporting was a little more expansive.

During the holidays I sell crafts and paintings, and I attend many shows and events where I need a portable cardscanning device. Square is portable, small, plugs into my smart phone or tablet, calculates tax, keeps email contact information and Emails receipts for paperless transactions. It is indispensable to me at these sales venues.

I can’t complain because the fees are very minimal and they gave me a generous free trial, but who wouldn’t want to keep all of their money?

This is the gold standard for opening your new retail location. It makes checkouts effortless, suggests tip percentages, etc. It allows customers to pay in the most convenient of ways and it is very easy to use on both ends.

There are no cons that I can think of. I don't see much use from larger firms, but for start-ups it is a no brainer.

Square for Retail allows my small side hustle to take credit card payments, just like a major retailer. This has opened many avenues for income, as cash is something some people just never have. The program allows easy invoicing, taking payments with a card swipe or online, and sends you an email whenever you recieve funds.

I wish the chip reader was included free of charge like the card swiper was.

this program is a Godsend. Very easy to setup and use...customer service is awesome

There is nothing negative I can say about this program. Works perfectly

there are lots of back office functions that I appreciate, like the ability to see remaining stock.

its not very pretty, especially when compared side by side with the regular app. its kind of dark. there are also many functions it needs, like the ability to do an exchange (bought a large, need a medium for example, or just return something within a new sale rather than a whole separate transaction) and to be able to check stock at another location (which would save me about 100 phone calls a week in peak season)

Square is easy to use and you get money fast. Lots of options for taking payments. Good desktop dashboard for all your transactions and any open items. Mobile app too.

I can't say I've had any major issues other than needing to reboot or download an update here or there. Pretty quick and easy to set everything and everyone up.

The Customer profiles and how all square users are linked and the paperless option of email or text recepit. The clean look of the stand itself and the use of an ipad. And the ease of uploading products to Square through the website.

The Tons of features that are hard to figure out. When ringing someone up its hard to deduct money for a sale item, it has to be per-programmed or you have to make the discount on the spot.

Square is used daily in my profession as it makes every day transactions and receipts easy and convenient.

There were not many flaws to this software although the wifi range is quite small and limits capabilities.

We use this everyday for our POS system and it is very easy to use in pulling reports.

Just that we have had some of the units go down.

How easy it is to use. The fees are the lower than everyone else. Emails after every transaction.

Sometimes it's slow on finishing up transactions.

Provides an easy solution that has many flexible point of sale options. Employees can easily login and conduct sales or clock in/out on the unit itself. Easy access to manage users and roles for permissions and other actions. Plenty of options for customer oriented actions such as customizable receipts and invoices. Very customizable and suitable for a wide variety of business types.

Customer service, while good, is sub-par compared to other industry offerings. Often, it takes longer support times and generic responses to get something settled. There's been a few times where I had to find a solution online myself because the official support took too long to get back to me. The hardware occasionally had problems such as not connecting to the main system or phone, or not accepting a charge for mobile devices.

We love square there’s a reason so many small businesses are using square! It’s amazing and costs less than most POS.

I wish it would deposit funds faster 😂

Square worked so well in a past job I had. SUPER user friendly and sends text receipts to the user as well. Very user friendly!

I did not find any cons with this software program. Would highly recommend to anyone with a business

I love having Square as an option for payment for my counseling, health coaching, and bodywork clients. It makes payments simple and easy. I love that they send you all the equipment you need free of charge. And, it syncs well with Practice Better, my scheduling service.

Sometimes it's tricky to get a card to scan. There are fees attached to each purchase, but I find them fairly reasonable.

This software is the best software for and application for credit card application. We used this when I was working at Rummage Clothing store and it made credit card transaction so much easier.

App crashed a couple of times but could be due to connection to the internet or reliability based on service.

I liked that this allowed purchases via credit card. When you are a band who relies on selling merchandise, a lot of times people want to pay with a card and not cash. This allows for a wider amount of sales and is incredibly helpful to the independent artist especially.

There's not much that I have experienced that is flawed with this method of sale. It has definitely got a good base. I think that it might be helpful if it could be split into multiple accounts if you are using it on different projects.

I love this payment option for my gym. It is supper easy to use.

This is a great software but pricing is slightly higher but worth the premium.

Square for Retail is a great point-of-sale resource. We have a sales team who travel all southeastern states selling products wholesale. Square for retail processes our transactions seamlessly. It also aids in keeping track of our inventories as well. Their reporting system is very detailed, which helps us with our audits.

At this point, we are free trialing this product with our outside sales reps and their bosses have reported that they are acclimating to the devices well. As a result, I cannot find anything to negate the effectiveness of this product's software.

Ease of use, simplicity in managing orders, great stuff!

fees, cost of equipment, not too awful comparatively speaking, however.

Without question the simplest point of sale software I've ever encountered. The hardware is easy to set up the software is so easy and convenient and it works like a charm every time. No hangups no glitches no problems.

I have no conscience whatsoever. My only advice would be to make sure that your business is making more than the monthly fee or else I would recommend not going with square retail and just going with square up. Otherwise it's awesome.
