Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros I like how it helps me to manage sales and goods in my business, easy to teach employees to use this system. Purchase orders just made my life simple. Advanced inventory allows us to automate product tracking processes. All this is available at any time, in the back office. Low inventory notifications, work with categories and suppliers for each store. Affordable subscription price. I like the clean and good looking design. It's very easy to use. What I like the most is great customer support. They reply so fast. It’s very useful to manage customers’ order for our restaurant which has eat-in, take-out and delivery. You can distinguish customers’ dining style. And order ticket management is simple and understandable. Loyverse is a really great POS to use most especially for small to medium businesses that are just starting up. It is free, accessible and easy to use and set up. It has several product features offered along with their POS that are extremely essential in optimizing business performance: Back Office, Dashboard, Inventory Managements, Employees Management among many others. What would take businesses so many days to monitor, summarize or calculate sales and inventory, would be done in seconds or in real-time with the Loyverse POS. Their customer service is superb and they respond to concerns and questions almost immediately. Not too mention their recent additions to their e-commerce integrations which helps in saving so much time and effort. Loyverse can also be translated to several languages making it very user-friendly for business owners around the world. I highly recommend Loyverse POS. Easy to Use. Fast Setup. Top Features and Functions for a small business owner. Perfect Synchronization between the App (it makes fun to use) and the Web-Applikation. Response Time of the Support (Online Chat) is within minutes. Advise is excellent. Cons What I don't really like is Reports. Dashboard app is nice, unfortunately for analytics I need to do extra steps. I hope they can fix it soon. It's hard to say ... for several years of use there were no problems, the support responds promptly to all questions. I hope I can see the back office activity log since my employees also sometimes enter it. But there are access rights that I can restrict their access to sales data. So I do not feel inconvenience so much. I wish Loyverse would develop a feature where it can also process and accept payments. Maybe convert currency too and accept cryptocurrency. That the CSV-File only handles North American Number Format and Row-Seperator.		Pros from Real Users Pros I love Square, well for the time I used it for. I sold Lularoe and this was so nice to be able to use during shows. People could just come up, buy what they want with the card reader and then all of the receipts were automatically compiled at the end and I was good to go. Very easy to use and they have great point of sale systems to be able to set up in a retail or business establishment.
