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.
Is your business running a robust beverage program? Do you care deeply about your guest and staff experience? Is security and reliability a priority? Arryved is for you.
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.
I love how Arryved has continued to grow and innovate. Each feature is staff friendly but oriented to help the customer have a better and easier experience (OpenTab is a great feature!).
Newer features are a bit harder to pick up and keeping our inventory and buttons organized can be a bit confusing on how to re-organzie.
It is pretty user friendly once you know what your doing. And inventory and reporting is great to use and amazing customer service.
However, the value derived from this additional cost makes up for most of this downside. The only other downside would be the complexity of operating a multi-site business inside a PoS.
My bartenders who each have a decade or more of industry experience all love it and all agree it's the best they have ever used.
But this isn't so much a challenge with Arryved, as it is with PoS's in general.
I absolutely love working with Arryved. They continually improve the product and the features offered, and their service is absolutely second to none - it is the best in the industry.
We have troubleshooted our internet and router settings and they appear to not be an issue. So, I would say lost tickets and ticket printer functionality.
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.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
