Ratings and Reviews
Frustrating to set up without previous experience
Happy with the app so far, but the developers need to make small videos for different areas of set up, from start to finish.
A one hour webinar done a such a fast pace, just adds to the stress of setting up a business.
The lack of human contact makes it’s hard to solve problems quickly, typing to the chat person is challenging.
Frustrating and unworkable for our business
We’ve been with Lightspeed for over 10 years and have loved it until we were forced to change from the Onsite POS version to the Retail POS version (they archived the Onsite version). The Retail POS is truly terrible. We are a photographic art gallery that often takes custom order. At just about every step - from taking an order, to processing the order, to fulfilling the order - is confusing, unintuitive, often not achievable and clunky. (For example - something simple, like emailing the customer the order again, actually isn’t possible.) The Purchase Orders don’t link back to the order or show the customer name, payment and part-payments (deposits) are confusing to take and redeem, searching for an item is difficult.... I could go on and on.
Lightspeeds solution to my many concerns and frustrations was to recommend an add-on app at an extra cost of $100 per month (on top of the $120 we were paying each month). I don’t recommend this POS system at all. Do yourself a favor (if you’re a shop with anything other than basic transactions) and look elsewhere.
Works well, request for sales page
After a sale it goes back to the default sales page for a new sale, this is fine, but would like an option to choose the default category it goes to. It would save so much time if it went back to the last used category. If a default choice per POS device could be chosen, this would be awesome.
