I've started using this app in order to integrate my retail outlet with my upcoming online site. It has made a lot of things easier for me. However, my struggle is only in setting up a receipt printer as per requirements as the specified printers are not available in India. It would be better if shopify can incorporate commonly available printers for the India market.

Gets used once a year for a big conference, so hardly a veteran user, but, works well, is easy to use and offers a wide range of payment options.

I'd be lost without it.

We had POS classic system for years which suited our business perfectly. I recently switched to the POS Pro Trial due to Classic being obsolete soon so I could re-train my staff now Shopify want $89/ month / terminal. WTF I have 4 stores that will cost me a fortune. If they charged $89/ month ONLY I would have signed up but at $356/month US to AUD it's $496/month sorry but absolutely no way. Now I have reverted back to POS Lite and this thing now is totally inadequate for my business they basically ripped all the features out of POS Classic and put it into POS Pro just so you have to pay for it now. Exchange button GONE,
Save the cart GONE. Staff Permissions GONE.
Sorry Shopify you screwed up a very good product just to make more revenue out of small businesses. Unless you revert back I will be serching for a new POS system ASAP.

I use this app to sell directly to our customers at pop-up shops throughout the year, it's very easy to use and I love that I can look at the analytics to analyze what our customers are buying in person.

Very disappointing that Shopify would release this update before working out the major flaws in this system. We are in our busiest time of year (when we also have temporary employees working) and we have spent hours trying to figure out our own way of getting around the issues as our phone calls to customer service have revealed that it will probably be a while before most of the issues are fixed. It is EMBARRASSING in front of customers when we cannot even issue a return or it credits them back inadvertantly and we have to ask them to pay again. Not to mention that when you print a "gift receipt"- a whole list of everything the person purchased prints onto the receipt. Who wants someone to know what all they purchased or if they are giving 15 people the same gift. How special does that feel? Very BASIC procedures are no longer possible. You cannot start a return unless you find the original order in the system- which doesn't work when someone is bringing back a gift. This new PRO POS is eating away at our productivity. We have had more calls into the support line in the last 2 weeks than the whole time we have used shopify. The home screen is nothing like the previous version where you could "see" your store and you basically do not have a menu driven system. Very poor decision on Shopify's part to launch this prematurely. We are disappointed as shopify charges alot of money for subscriptions, fees, and credit card processing.

They just lost me as a customer by forcing an update which makes it mandatory for customers to have both phone and email when doing a delivery order. They made up a story about it being for security however the website rules are either a phone or email and it works just fine. They also suggested I make up email addresses to get past a screen that stops you proceeding which I am going to refer to the ICO as that's essentially using fake data , tut tut Shopify! They are looking at their developments in a completely isolated manner and not considering all cohorts. We've lost thousands this week as it's Mother's day and we can't see a high % of our customers. They need to get a handle on their rogue Devs.

I used the POS app for my first vendor event this weekend, and it went SO WELL. From being able to quickly create custom orders to balancing my cash at the end of the day, it worked exactly how I expected it to without a struggle every time. My only issue was that my card reader (the shopify chipper X something?) didn't stay connected. That could have been our issue with shady wifi or crabby bluetooth on my ipad, but it definitely wasn't enough to keep us from using it again.

We’ve been with Shopify for several years now for our website & POS. Prior to Shopify we used 2 very popular and highly noted POS platforms both with pros & cons & both costing more than Shopify’s upgraded version. We switched our 13 yr old Brick & Mortar over to Shopify’s POS platform approx. 4yrs ago and have been relatively pleased with our decision. In our experience, anytime a new upgrade is rolled out with any platform there has always been growing pains and it never seems to be at the right time. What I do know is that in our 4 yrs of using Shopify’s POS many of the upgrades they have implemented is a direct result of listening to the customer. Can they do more, absolutely. Let us all remind ourselves with this pandemic how we’ve had to change direction in the blink of an eye including Shopify. Trying to keep up with an influx of demand can be daunting even for the big guys.

We specifically moved to Shopify because our old ecommerce did not have a POS component and our POS system was separate from ecommerce. We decided that having both in one was a win win situation. Well, after we moved our website over successfully (SHOPIFY REALLY IS THE BEST ECOMMERCE SOLUTION!!!!), we decided to start tackling the POS side and came to discover it is woefully lacking. For example, I don't want our employees to add any discount code but rather to select from discount codes I pre-create. It doesn't even offer that. Anyone can give any discount they want and word it any name they want. It's cray cray- so in the end, we have decided we love the Shopify website and we love our eCommerce solution so I am actively looking for a way that both of those can integrate rather than using Shopify's POS. I really hope they can make it better and stronger in the long run.

This may be the only POS on the market without a function to "leave a TIP" for the employee ringing up the order. While we do sell online retail, we offer barbering services, sharpening, etc.. in our brick and mortar store and are unable to let customers leave a tip on their credit card on this POS, and with more and more people not carrying cash, it looks like we may need to switch POS systems before our staff keeps getting upset that they are losing tips. Other than that, it is a smooth POS integration system, but the lack caring enough to add a simple function is why this POS is not ideal for anyone selling anything other than products. If you run a service, beverage, or food company then you definitely need to shop elsewhere for a POS.
