Great tool but can slow you down during busy days.

Great way to manage multiple departments #### Cons Getting any phone support if there were any bugs or glitches was always a hassle which is not helpful when in a busy store --- ### Happy with the system - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Retail - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · daily - Reviewed: May 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

The credit card processing is excellent They matched my rate which was the best in the industry. #### Cons Tough to move over to it. We really liked Quick Books POS but it didn't integrate with E-Commerce. Looking forward to getting our e-commerce going agan. --- ### Terrible team, horrific software and non-reliable hardware! - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Retail - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · daily - Reviewed: June 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros Great liars and getting customers onboard. #### Cons Terrible team, horrific software and non-reliable hardware! The system was sold on a lie. The features discussed during phone calls and via email did not match the actual system. They tried blaming the initial issues on the credit processing company but later learned that their software was not compatible when accepting EBT cash. Then the software upgrade (May 29, 2021) began showing the same error and froze both of my POS systems on numerous occasions. Instead of resolving the issue brought on by their upgrade, they asked me sign up for monthly service or pay $239 dollars. Their keyboard has a mind of it’s on. At times the CAP lock is activated or the number lock. Their scanners are worthless. I'm being charged $200+ dollars for a wireless scanner that is available on Amazon for $100 dollars. Scanner reviews on Amazon clearly show that no one invested any time conducting a thorough research. Lastly, it’s missing the automated decimal point and the change due does not disappear automatically when initiating a new transaction. Instead of helping resolve their software/hardware issues I received an email from Will that they are cancelling my software service. I emailed my concerns to [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], but yet to receive any response. Do you want to start your day asking yourself if your POS system is going to work or not? --- ### POS Nation Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Retail - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: less than 1 year · daily - Reviewed: December 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I have enjoyed using POS Nation. With each fix or call to the tech team, I learn the system more and more. The POS Nation employees have been wonderful, and the hardware has held up well for the time we have had it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I enjoyed the setup process. The instructor was great to work with, and very informative. The features within the system fit just about any scenario we run into. The ease of learning the system was also a relief. #### Cons I will occasionally run into issues finding the correct reports to run for specific information. Also, I have experienced "speed" issues with the system taking many seconds to finish transactions and open the drawer. However, both of these issues are resolved fairly quickly after calling customer support. #### Vendor response We're happy you're enjoying your system, Sean! Thanks for the review.
