Greg G.: Hey, my name's Greg, I'm a small business owner. I give WooPOS a three out of five. And for more views like this, go ahead and click below. So before using WooPOS, our business was actually just using invoicing. So we use PayPal invoices, and occasionally, we just follow the email. So this is a great way to really start capturing money right at the point of sale. Yeah. So we chose WooPOS for a variety of reasons, but primarily, it was because it integrated with some of the other existing systems we had. We had our website that we sort of served our customers through and they actually had a nice WordPress plugin. So in that sense, we were actually doing those sales online, but that was really important to us, and we didn't want to have to build out our own infrastructure to sort of support that, so this has made it really easy to sort of transition over in that sense. Getting started with WooPOS was ... I would say it was decently easy. It was certainly easier than the alternative that we had in mind, which was building out our own solution. We were going to do that online, and that would've been hard to do on a WordPress site. But WooPOS, they made it very easy to sort of have this plugin and it served our needs pretty quickly. The customization options were left a bit to be desired, but it wasn't terrible, and it certainly had a lot of the functionality we needed right out of the box. So if you're considering WooPOS as an option for yourself, I would encourage you to look at a few things. One, why is this option interesting to you? Are they offering something unique that perhaps another POS service such as Square or Toast isn't ... I know toast is more on the restaurant side, but I think if I were to go back, I would probably use Square for my point of sale services specifically. If it's to integrate for a web storefront, I guess WooCommerce really has that, they do a lot of these online storefronts. It's a good option. It's certainly not bad. I think it makes it pretty easy on some of these other site-building platforms. But if you're starting out fresh, Shopify is probably the way to go in that sense.
