This POS system is one of the best in the market, it provides a wide range of features that will expand your business. I use it mainly for a clothing store and some of the features like inventory and invoice generator are really good.
The fact that is lags whenever the items reach 10K is a bummer. At first I thought it was my PC but it wasn't.
Quickbooks POS includes a loyalty program feature, that keeps track of current or new customers and saves all purchases that have been made in a range of time.
The thing i like best about quickbooks it that is keeps a record online of all of your transactions.
I don't think there is much to dislike. The problem that may come to my mind is that quickbooks has a function that classifies different similar sales into categories, and this has the potential to go wrong I suppose.
I think accounting and organization of spending or receipts are what Quickbooks helps with
Easily make invoices and see end of day sales
Lack of ability to automatically weed out unused inventory
Making invoices and keeping up with taxes owed
The best part of using the product is the brand it falls under as well as the ability to link to Quickbooks directly.
I don't have many dislikes for the product. We no longer use it but it was great and comparable to having a big CPU register!
Saves on maximizing opportunity. Your able to link back directly to Quickbooks and there is no need to import data.
Once setup this application will do it all! Inventory? Check. Reports on your best sellers or most profitable hours of operation? Check. Is Sally making all the upsells she can? She isn’t! But check!
Tedious inventory system that with multiple locations does not play nice! You can only enter new items at the headquarters? Why?
There’s no better option than this. The “iPad” reliant POS systems aren’t future proof and if hardware breaks or an iOS update breaks something your business suffers.
I like how easy and instinctive the software is to use. I'm not great with technology, and it is really simple to use.
I'm still digging deeper into everything the software will allow me to do, so this may change, but as of now, there isn't anything about it that I don't like. I got away from using it for a bit, but I plan to return to the software to start 2018.
The biggest business problem I have solved is that is has made tracking my finances much easier and more streamlined. In turn, I know I am not missing expenses and revenue which, come tax time, will be a huge benefit for me to have more accurate records than I have in the past.
the ease of use and how everything flows together
There is nothing I dislike about the programs.
saving time
Quick books allows me to easily search customers and all the information we have on each one. I can find their location, phone number, email address and much more just with a few clicks. I love that i don't have to make my customers wait more than 30 seconds to pull up their account in our system before continuing to help them or take their order.
I do not appreciate when my system crashes on me, especially when i'm in the middle of printing my invoices for the day. It is time consuming and sometimes it happens when i am helping a customer.
Instead of mailing a customer an invoice, i can easily email the invoice right through my quick books system.
QuickBooksPOS's newest version features auto payment reconciliation, improved data security, better performance, and time-saving features. The most important feature of this point of sale system over a different point of sale system is that this system obviously integrates well with QuickBooks accounting software. The most recent updates have materially improved the performance of the software although many of the update by Intuit are backend improvements rather than interface updates.
Customer service and support is rather limited and not always available. A listing of those issues include that help is often only available during normal business hours, there is often a lengthy queue, and the assistance that is granted is rather generalized. Also, and as mentioned above, this software doesn't make much sense for business that does not use QuickBooks as its main accounting software because it works best when fully integrated with QuickBooks.
QuickBooksPOS helps my clients enjoy a comprehensive platform that allows them to enter cash and credit card sales, manage relationships and orders with vendors for inventory, and limited customer relationship management.
Included customer tracking and rewards, pricing levels, the reports dashboard (with multiple pages!)
lack of a good mobile solution/sync. The GoPayment app is pretty useless. If we lose internet connection we are using the GoPayment app to take payments but it doesn't sync properly with our large inventory on the desktop POS software.
Inventory control, customer tracking, UPC management
