Clover is largely great and we love a lot of the features. Compared to other software I have used, it is better and much easier to work with.
Swiping clients cc at the table and printing the receipts is possible and tablets for the servers to take with them to the tables are available at the point of sale.
Doing what you should do is slowed down by the inability to add modifiers for the food.
Our credit card figures which aren’t part of what we were informed we’d pay when acquiring this system keep changing and the support team isn’t helpful in resolving this issue.
Operating it is simple, it is natural, inexpensive, and it produces amazing reports.
The overview per product doesn’t have an additional column bearing the amount collected for the sales tax making it time consuming downloading other reports to combine the figures.
It provides a great source of payment for my store.
It is an extremely easy software which is very beneficial for small businesses like stores. It is suitable for all kinds of businesses as it offers a lot of useful features such as receipt printers.
The speed is very slow. In spite of frequent reboots, it didn’t work.
Vend helped us get the business going when our budget was very limited. Setup and operation were very easy and if there were more functions we would have used those too. But we had to switch to a more expensive software reluctantly. But Vend was very helpful in most aspects of the business.
Vend is a user-friendly and great help for us in our start-up phase in our brewery. We use Vend at a retail store and taproom bar for about six months.
There is a lack of complexity though in using the software in terms of using the tabs. There is a tab/layaway function we used as a workaround but not meant for this purpose.
