Point of Sale

Cuentas las herramientas básicas para un punto de venta

we were on the Shopify Plus subscription for a year and cancelled. Shopify Plus comes with the feature of Shopify POS Pro and we did not have this feature prior to being on Shopify Plus. A few months after being cancelled from Shopify Plus, Shopify just decided to activate Shopify POS Pro on three of our stores with NO authorization. I'm trying to run my business not take hours of my time to have you reverse a feature you place on my three stores without our authorization.

*This app had an update which fixed several of my major issues with it, so I've revived this review*

This is a solid and much needed addition to the Shopify platform. Its very usable, it requires almost no training to figure it out, is easily integrated into the store. I think the layout could have a few tweaks to make it more seamless (refreshing the selected collection when you start a new order and perhaps making it easier to select collections for example) but overall its pretty fast to use, and wont cause much of a headache.

There are a few reasons why I haven't given this a higher rating, firstly is that its expensive. We already pay a premium price for backend hosting of our store, really this is a $49 a month fee simply to process offline transactions. Really its a premium price for a basic product.

The app has some limitations, reports on the app are non existent, other than a sales tally. That means you have no way of knowing how many of a particular product has been sold, how much you've made each hour, how much from different collections you've sold. Theres a lot of useful information that you should have access to on the fly, but you don't unless you use the computer interface.

The use of printers/ scanners and till drawers is limited to only very specific models. This no doubt makes the installation of the physical POS assets easy and very reliable, however unless you live in North America the receipt printers and till drawers aren't really readily available, so you have to buy a more expensive version off eBay, which is disappointing. Even the inclusion of AirPrint would be very welcome.

The ability to see product descriptions in the app would also be useful, often if you sell a large amount of products, someone might have a questions which you cant readily answer, but having that information available to you would be very useful.

Ultimately its very useful. It is a real timesaver when it comes to updating quantities manually which is really its most redeeming feature. I don't think its quite equal to the $600 a year price you have to pay, its not really a complete system yet, but I suspect it might be after a few big updates.

This app is very user friendly. I really like the custom sale feature where one can add an item to a transaction. We have another POS from a different vendor that does not have this feature soI prefer using Shopify for that reason.

Tiene de manera nativa en Pos Pro casi toda la funcionalidad que se requiere en un punto de venta. No le dos 5 estrellas porque aun con stocky que es gratuito en la version Pro el manejo de los inventarios es elemental. Me gustaria ver que se integre con un ERP de forma nativa desarrollado por shopify y no por un tercero

great app

Super handy. The only thing that I feel was a pretty large miss for this BFCYM and holiday season is that bundles don't load on them. Customers really like to have the same prices online and in store, and there are definitely work arounds, but during high traffic times, it can be really frustrating that bundles aren't accessible, esp. when they are an option for the online site. Otherwise, I am a big fan!

It would be better if there is a document explaining how to operate it. I can try it. It feels nice and small.

I love shopify

Usd $89 for this? We are small businesses, You Big. We pay you monthly usd $ 79 and usd $ 200-500, per transactions (done by computer and bots). Could It be an plus for your costumers? Big companies are bigger when they add worth to their clients. 1- This POS is not working with any Bluetooth printer, Shopify say that You must have to buy to them the printer, 2021 it isnot logical.
2- This POS does not work on Computers.
3- This POS is not customize , taxes are the same that online store. No available to change (taxes online and taxes POS).
4- Stocky is not work in free plan.
5- The idea pos and online as one, is a lie. We must pay online and pay POS too.
6- This POS does not work with all barcode reader. Only few businesses companies.
