SlickPOS review after practical usage

We are using SlickPOS for order, customer and expense management. Will soon start using for inventory management.

Pros

The free trail period. It totally helps you get the feel of the product.

Cons

1. The additional charges should be a drop down. The list does not open completely. 2. Search feature just searches the current page. It should search the entire data and come up with the latest result like in excel.

Slick POS for cafe (First two months)

Overall, I'd say the desktop application is good. The mobile app (on a tablet too) is not so good. For us this becomes a blocker of sorts sometimes as we don't have enough space for a laptop on our counter.

Pros

The UI design (design) is good. The offline feature works well It works well with our cafe workflow Analytics is good! Menu planning is also good

Cons

We use the mobile app (On a tablet) The app is not upto the mark. Here are the problems with the (Android) mobile app. I'm using lenovo tab 3 (Lollipop) 1. The touch takes too long (Use fastclick or something similar) 2. The app exits sometimes for no apparent reason 3. The app becomes too slow after a while of usage (2 hours or more) 4. The UI for selecting date is terribly unusable. The touch scrolling is very very slow and a pain to use 5. Sometimes the drafts screen does not respond to touch. You have to quit the app to make it responsive 6. A lot of times touching on the product on the sell screen opens the update quantity screen. This is very frustrating especially when the cafe is crowded. This only resolves if you restart the app 7. The receipt screen should show today's receipts only by default. This is important for us also because the date selection dialog is so slow. It can have some options such as: Today, Yesterday, This week, This month The app should not print the receipt by default. This has to be optional.

Ease of Use is great - Bit more feature and functional integrations required

Pros

Ease of Usage Graph for a new person using the tool. The user interface is UX driven and works well in a POS environment.

Cons

The features list is minimal compared to the other market leaders in the industry. Event though VFM the product needs a bit more essential functionality to make it complete.

Amazing Tool, Easy to use and gets the job done!

Easy swift billing

Pros

Works with almost all devices, Very easy to setup and use . One can customized the Taxes, menu items , billing , discounts etc. In case you get stuck, swift customer support comes to rescue !

Cons

No shortcomings as such, features are limited at the moment, I am sure With time, it will increase.

Review by SOBROSO

Overall experience good. As a new business it helped a lot. User friendly. Expect a bit more communication between slick Pos and us so that we can understand more features and use it in our business to improve.

Pros

Feature of sending the bill over the phone by SMS is great. Customers like it specially in case of home-delivery customers and it helps us a lot too as most of the time we don't need a hard copy of the restaurant. "Save Paper Save Tree".

Cons

Its not user friendly when you try to search out an old receipt of a particular customer by phone no. or name. It takes a lot of time.
