Fantastic upgrade for iZettle

Pros

Easy user interface Good onboarding support As an iZettle user, I haven’t had to buy a brand new till set up - I’m still using my iZettle full retail set up. Good suite of integratable apps available (e.g accounting, websites etc) Much more comprehensive functionality and customisable reporting than iZettle No contract - No long term commitment

Cons

Monthly cost is high compared to other EPOS systems available but I’ve had very little upfront cost and support is strong. No additional charges for linking apps like Xero which other cheaper monthly costed EPOS providers do charge for. You get what you pay for - we are happy with our choice!

Straightforward, intuitive POS.

Pros

Vend provides a clean, easy-to-use interface that users will pick up quickly and enjoy using. All basic retail functions are accounted for -- sales, discounting/promotions, inventory control, and even built-in flexible gift card and loyalty programmes -- and presented in a way that is easy to set up and to use. Most errors, even wrong tender types, can be corrected by an administrator. Processing sales and refunds is quick and easy, and the in-transaction Notes feature enables capturing additional details or item complexity beyond the product variants.

Cons

Customers looking for greater customising, more complex/custom role setups, and activity logging might want to consider something else. Vend sacrifices rigour for flexibility in some respects, and does not allow granular event logs nor granular access controls (e.g. you can allow a user to apply discounts or not, but not set a discount threshold). Cash management cannot be disabled for a card-only business.

Awesome reporting and easy to use

Pros

Great customer service Useful reports available immediately Links to Xero Easy interface for staff members Cloud based so can be used on various devices and doesn't need to be backed up. Feels modern

Cons

Cannot connect to a weighing scale which is a key part of my business. Doesn't include hardware. Cloud based means that if you're internet goes you're out of action.

Vend is a very powerfully great software which link my shop and website and works seamlessly very happy moved from eposnow which was a awfull company

Pros

Easy to use great reports and link to woocommerce it always works the reports are great and its live link to my website is great

Cons

Nothing really somthing ide say would be it could do with a report that tells me what's published and whats not by company or brand but that's it nothing major would just be a nice to have

Great tech

Pros

This looks to offer everything we need, integrating Point of Sale, Stock Management and website in one software package is a great help with managing our business

Cons

The monthly subscription is rather expensive for a software package and being asked to pay an onboarding fee (only mentioned once I'd decided to go ahead) is hard to swallow

Vend customer service & technical support shines.

Pros

Support is available 24x7. Always helpful & responsive. Adding products is quite easy (also being able to duplicate would be nice).

Cons

We wish that we could customize receipts with information in the extended description. We also dream of an integrated scale feature since much of our inventory is sold by weight.

Very satisfied

Pros

Very user friendly and many great functions. I love how easy it is to find daily, weekly, monthly reports.

Cons

sometimes there is a bit of a lag in updating daily sales totals, but that may have been an internet issue.

Vend user

Very easy and handy

Pros

Can use anywhere and any device Nice interface and well designed Environmental friendly Fit many types of business

Cons

The cost some how I can't find any other disadvantages

Simple basic retail POS

Pros

Cons

Does not handle our needs. We are a furniture business and need customizable invoices, customer databases, and the ability to special order products with depsoits. System is not as robust as more expensive solutions but you get what you pay for.

A fan

Pros

The customer service is out of this world. They NEVER leave you hanging & always resolve my issues in the one phone call. These guys truly understand retail & the time pressures involved & have never let me down. They're generally good, fun peeps to deal with as well.

Cons

I have a pretty demanding list of requirements for reporting & some of them require a bit of excel manipulation, HOWEVER - the data has always been there, I've just needed to massage it a bit.

Customer Support is Amazing!

Pros

Great product for running a retail store! The product works very well and set up is quite easy.

Cons

Depending on merchant account, the software doesn't always allow refunds to be performed at the till (iPad).

Great iPad POS for large businesses

Pros

Loyalty Program, Payment Intergrations, Easy to use

Cons

If a monthly cost bothers you then it could be a con

Vend review

Pros

The UI and layout is clear and simple.

Cons

buggy when adding products. Cannot add products on the fly or do special orders. Cannot do work orders.

Staff that enter in new stock items, are also be granted access to All your sales history

Pros

Great easy to use systems on the front end, stable data base that despite having over 6,000 items with in it doesn't miss a beat. It professional looking. Elegantly handles discounts by either % or by dollar value. Great reports. Integrates well with Xero and my website.

Cons

Beware Employers, anyone who can enter in new stock will see everything, sales history, reports, you sensitive business data, your business health. Download load it try it for yourself. I have raised this with Vend, and my response back was "Is this really a problem?". For me it is.
