Square Makes Running My Business so Simple
I am a big fan of any software that does a lot...and man Square Point of Sale does A LOT!!! It has seriously made running my business so much easier, and even kind of fun. I love how much I can customize it, how detailed I can get with it, but also how easy it is to create invoices and things on the fly. I can use it across multiple devices, making it useful ANYWHERE.
Pros
I like how much I can customize it; that I can use it across all my devices; I can use it anywhere; it creates records for me, helps with taxes, saves client info. All that stuff that can fall between the cracks.
Cons
I'll admit, I haven't come across anything that is a major flaw so far. Any complaint I have is the sort of thing I would encounter with any online POS and/or accounting software - things like the tediousness of entering product/service items to be saved and other repetitive tasks like that.

Square gets the job done
My overall experience has been good. Square POS gets the job done. The user interfase could be more intuitive though, but in general it's ok.
Pros
I use square POS, but also as an online payment processor linked to Wix. We started using the simple and small POS at our organization, but then we upgraded to the one with the big screen and that was a big change. I particularly like about this one that the client is the one swiping the credit card and has privacy deciding on the tips. It allows to start and end the cash drawer, which helps to control the cash better. I also like that when there is no connection it goes to offline mode and one can still run transactions with it.
Cons
The part that I am unsatisfied with is that the integration with WIX does not capture names of events in the description of each transaction. Therefore it's tricky to categorize those transactions in the different income classes for our books. I have to do that by reconciling manually wix reports with square's.

StripeReasons for Choosing Square Point of Sale
We still use Stripe because it works better with our donors database. When I started working in the organization both were being used, since we had the investment of the Square POS already, which are pricey, we continued to use Square. However it does not integrates with Bloomerang.Switched From
StripeReasons for Switching to Square Point of Sale
We chose square over alternative products because we had already spent over $1000 in POS

Great For Payments
It has been an okay experience, I’m going to keep using it and update my review later in the year.
Pros
I like that I’m able to use it and take payments on my mobile app. I also like that Square offers a free payment device for Small Business Owners to take payments on the go.
Cons
I dislike the security of Square, I don’t think it is secure enough. I have received an email about someone trying to get into my account many times.

Best Choice, Hands Down
My experience has been really really good. This is an ideal product, designed simply to make life and business easier. And that's exactly what it does.
Pros
The simple design and ease of use is my favorite! This made taking electronic payment so easy and effortless. Especially during a time where everyone was already stressed enough, contactless payments meant one less stress on everybody.
Cons
I don't have anything negative to say about this product! It delivers, and for a fraction of what the competitors are charging. What's there not to like?

Simple and easy
Pros
I like that this is so straight forward and easy. It’s very simple to use and they don’t try to hide a bunch of fees. So clean and simple!
Cons
The only thing that’s sometimes a little frustrating is running reports, it won’t download as pdf. So I have to save it as an image.
