Square POS after 1 year
The POS software is very good especially when I go offline and in person I can collect a payment and continue online and resolve any client information.
Pros
It's seamless with my banking and helps me integrate payments for clients, products, and services
Cons
There are many freemium features that can be an additional benefit on top of the current monthly costs unlike a shopify plan that bundles most offers in one subscription.

Ideal Invoicing & Processing for B2B Services
Pros
Square is easy and secure to use when invoicing our business clients. In 10+ years we have never experienced downtime, security issues, or missed or misapplied payments. Their processing rates are not always the absolute cheapest, but they are competitive. We have also integrated Square into websites/e-commerce for dozens of clients, and it works seamlessly. Additionally, they offer capital business loans that have helped us with cash flow on a couple occassions.
Cons
Their processing rates are not necessarily the absolute lowest. If a few tenths of a percentage are important to you, you may wish to shop around for the lowest transaction rates.
Reasons for Choosing Square Point of Sale
Ease of use and integration was considerably better than using our Bank for CC processing. Integrates seamlessly with many e-commerce platforms, without complicated APIs.Reasons for Switching to Square Point of Sale

Long time user
Perfect. The couple of times (in over 12 years) I needed to engage with Support, they were stellar. Helpful, and there to truly support me. Exactly what a business needs. I see no need to go to another service.
Pros
Square is efficient, secure and personable. The records are fantastic and thorough. It's easy to see data however one might need it presented.
Cons
I really don't have any cons. Really. None.

Square POS
Square helped us with sales when we're at events and with our regular business operation. The rates are affordable so we're still making nearly the same profit and we've been able to sell more tickets and merchandise.
Pros
Square is a convenient way to complete sales transactions no matter where you are or what kind of business you're running. They have an app that's great. Use it in your storefront, pop-up booth, festivals, events, wherever. All of the pricing information and fees are listed up front and it's a pretty good rate. Transactions are secure for buyer and seller. Customer service portal has several ways to get support so you can use whatever method is best for you and your situation. Square can run in offline mode if you need it.
Cons
Inventory management wasn't great but since we don't have a lot of merchandise it wasn't a deal breaker. Square should come up with something better for Inventory. Easier to manage, less time involved.Account freezes do happen with Square once in a while.
