Square Point of Sale (POS) is used by more than 2 million small businesses every day! It is flexible enough to serve every kind of business, from retailers to bakeries and delis to hairdressers.
Child care centers, daycares, preschools, after school programs, enrichment programs and camps of all sizes and structures.
This is perfect for mobile on the go sales. The process is very simple and the customers love how easy it is to use.
They did start charging for additional card readers. If you had a poor or no internet connection charges could not be processes.
I love how easy it is to create items, track inventory, and that they recently lowered their transaction fees. We are a non-profit, so anywhere we can penny-pinch is a great benefit to us.
Most people will agree to the user-friendliness, however, the reviews speak a different story. Users complain a lot about bad support experience where.
I have had the best experiences with Square Point of Sale. Customer Service is amazing, and the help I have received when I needed help while in the process of helping a customer.
The fact that Square doesn't even make an effort to respond to all their negative feedback, which indicates that they acknowledge them all.
The best part is the analytics. Love how easy it is to customize the menu and make it easy to check people out.
It was a little confusing to get started because we were using a mobile device.
It is easy to use and you do not need to have software knowledge. If you need additional help, tech support is just wonderful to work with.
The one thing that I dislike about the software is that in the beginning, I made a few mistakes that I can't correct due to money being attached.
The customer service is amazing. I called with questions and the girl was so nice and helpful.
Recently, it has been having system errors. The parents are not able to submit payments if the system is down.
I love the fact that everything I need from parents and employees is all in one place. Also, when I need assistance, technical assistance is always available to help in a friendly manner.
When the parents call to complain that they cannot contact someone to ask questions on registration with TE. A customer service should be available for parents.
My overall experience has been pretty good. Customer service has been helpful when I needed it.
They do a lot of updates that sometimes interrupt service but they do them at off hours.
Michael: My name is Michael. I'm the president of a company. Today I'll be reviewing Square Point of Sale. I would give this software a three out of five. For more reviews, please click below. I started using Square Point of Sale, before that I was using paper, I was actually not using software and there had to be a better solution for cumbersome and non-sustainable use of paper. I chose Square Point of Sale because of the first price was that it was affordable to combine it with other services they have such as merchant services and also due to the scheduling, the convenience that it provided, being used in conjunction with the merchant services that they provided. Square Point of Sale was relatively easy to integrate into my business. Unfortunately, not all features that I learned with other software were available such as exporting data onto Excel. I recommend that with point of sale and with any other software that this is going to integrate and it's going to make your business run more efficiently and smoother. One reason that I really did like it is because it was very simple and basic to use. So for anyone that wants to get up and going immediately, this would be a good software to use.
Jeni H.: I'm Jeni, I work at Kendal at Oberlin. We have a preschool onsite and it's called Kendal Early Learning Center, and we are a retirement community that has a preschool inside of it and we do an intergenerational program with the residents that live here on campus, and the community members that have families and children that are preschool age, and I would give Tuition Express a four out of five stars. Before Tuition Express we were using Excel sheets for each family, and it wasn't working because there wasn't a system in place to remind families to do their tuition payments. So it was just an Excel sheet and the director would go around and remind people that their tuition payment was due, and it would take a long time to collect it and then record it in the Excel sheet, so Tuition Express has really helped us with that, where it's easy to collect, we're not running around begging people for money, and it also helps us keep our records in a timely manner. We chose Tuition Express because I'd used it before in a different program and it was easy to use, so I was familiar with it and that's why we chose it. It was very easy to get started with Tuition Express, we just had to have the families fill out a form and then enter it into the system, and it was super easy and saved a lot of time. I would recommend Tuition Express because it's easy, it saves you time, and in today's day and age when you need to do things quickly and multitask quickly it's very easy to set it up and get started.
