Square for Retail was easy to register for and get up and running. It provides an easy method of inventory management, along with a robust POS check-out system all-in-one. It also offers robust and easy to understand reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The monthly subscription cost is somewhat high for a small business. It also requires a constant internet connection. We've also had instances where Square's system went down in its entirety causing us to not only be not be able to process cards, but miss capturing those transactions for reporting purposes in the system.

It is so quick, simple, and user friendly to use. Most people are familiar with the system already it seems or they get used to it really fast at least. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am often afraid that a customer will drop the apple product which it’s linked too it. My only other complaint would be sometimes the percentage taken out is high in comparison to others I’ve heard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been using square for a very long time. I have always found it to be very user friendly. I really like the reports and the daily email of what we collected. If you use the entire system you will find that you can run a lot of your business with square products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Unfortunately they increased the price. So you probably can find a cheaper option. The reader sometimes takes a long time to connect. But that could also be due to the hardware we are using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Square is a leader when it comes to quick, affordable setup and ease of use. I like that it's features have grown over the years and that the system has continued to be user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Square has issues when you're trying to manage inventory for both online and in person sales if you're not using their ecommerce solution. I wish that it played better with other systems like Shopify or Squarespace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
