  ### 5. Company Doesn't Listen to Needs

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 25, 2023

**What do you like best about Shopkeeper POS?**

Easy to set up and use.  The program has many good features, but still needs some basic improvements.

**What do you dislike about Shopkeeper POS?**

1.  There are features I have asked about, such as I want away to keep track of where my customer referrals are coming from; when I asked about this, they told me no one ever asked for this feature! Do you want to know where your business is being generated from...when I put a customer in the POS I should be able to have an option, referred by: google, John Doe, Facebook, etc.  2.  Then I asked about generating a report of who has not ordered or been in my store in more than 30 days (so I can send out a text) so it would be nice to be able to generate a report that has the name, phone number and date last ordered so that I could upload to my texting program.  NO option, and again they told my manager, no one ever asked.  I'm disappointed no one cares more about the customer at lightspeed/shopkeep as the software is very easy to use, and there are many good features, and I do like it. 3.  The hardware you have to use with their system is not very good; my scanners use a lot of double AA batteries and are barely out of warranty...the system definitely could be better.

**What problems is Shopkeeper POS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

None that I addressed in my dislikes.

  ### 6. Nice system with some flakey issues

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott B. | Owner and President, Consumer Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 11, 2019

**What do you like best about Shopkeeper POS?**

Shopkeep POS is a nicely laid out system with nice tools for keeping track of POS activities. Some of the recent changes to fix little nits have been welcome, but it is good for a small shop.

**What do you dislike about Shopkeeper POS?**

First and foremost, the interaction between the iPad POS and the Clover device is very inconsistent. The clover has serious problems with not connecting and the POS app on the iPad does not seem to notice it properly. It fails too often and when there are customers present. It is very nice when it works but there are too many times when it fails.

**Recommendations to others considering Shopkeeper POS:**

Make sure this is what you need. The system is very generic. In fact, it would be better in a restaurant environment than in a retail situation. If you have variable inventory, then consider other options. Also, if you need to invoice customers, be prepared to use another service on top of Shopkeep.

**What problems is Shopkeeper POS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Shopkeep POS has a nice interface and has made it easy to handle transactions. It has made getting people signed up to our mailing list easy with its Mailchimp integration.
