I really like the ability to take in person orders from the palm of my hand via an iPad or iPhone with the Shopify POS app. If you use a newer iPhone you can even take tap to pay payments with your phone without the need for any extra hardware. I can customize the POS screen fully with discounts, custom tiles, shipping options, and more. Compared to traditional POS systems with clunky hardware this is incredible. We use Shopify POS across multiple iPads when we go to trade shows. We can use it with wifi, starlink, or offline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are two things that cause us issues with Shopify POS. First, if you get logged out of your Shopify account while at a show it can be difficult to get logged back in quickly especially if you have 2FA enabled, like we do. I understand the security aspect, but we need access in a hurry and never know if/when we will get logged out by the system. Second, setting orders to ship instead of in person sales can be tricky. If done wrong you will pull inventory from the incorrect location and your inventory count will be off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
