Great for entrepreneurs
It is very easy to use and convenient for my customers
Pros
The ease of use for this product is amazing. I love how you can make a sale with the virtual terminal by either swiping a card or sending an invoice.
Cons
The fees per use can be cumbersome. However all pay portals have some sort of fee to use their product.

Small little POS at your finger tips
Its what we needed in a pinch to get sales orders working on the field at events. It worked well for conferences and venues.
Pros
It was easy to setup and start using when you need it. You connect it to your phone and use it as a normal POS you would in a store
Cons
Support isn't always easy to get a hold of and it wouldn't integrate it with our system. This is more for small business use and not for tracking and reporting on analytics.

Great app for small business with HIGH processing fees
Pros
I like that I can do manual entry, take payments over the phone, and process almost any type of credit card a client has.
Cons
The fees are so high. Absolutely ridiculous when other companies offer funds transfer and payment options for a fraction of the service fee. I've had to start adding service fees to client bills who choose to pay with Square.

Proud to be a Square
Pros
What I found to be the most beneficial of aspects of this software and accessories is the fact that it incorporates everything essential to successfully implementing a source of income for your business that is highly adaptable to various situations. Essentially, a POS that is direct banking as well, and at it's best, in my opinion.
Cons
Initially, and for the general entirety, I have been completely satisfied with all aspects of this software, it has become an asset and even more so a staple in regards to my business functioning at an efficient level.
