## Reviews

### "Simple and easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Reign** | *29 January 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really like how livepos features helped in managing my multi location stores everyday. With this software I can completely track everything, whenever and wherever I am.

-----

### "Okay, but expect lots of glitches" — 4.0/5

> **Rosaria** | *7 January 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Has a lot of functions but if you don't know how to use them then you are wasting time.  It really does a lot, more than we could have possibly learned.  So if you love computers this is the pos for you.  It hardly went down, but it did probably once a quarter while they were fixing a bug.  We used the external credit card processor, so there were some errors at times.
> 
> **Cons**: You have to install the register part on your computer that remains at the store.  The bad part is if the computer goes down, you need to have another computer with this installed on it.  The admin part is accessible through the cloud and is great.   Support will try to help you, but it's hit or miss.  They have different levels of support so if you are not having an issue for awhile they will not let you speak to a higher level tech until you get so mad and request a supervisor.
> 
> Okay, but we switched away as it became too hard to use, too time consuming to fix errors, and could never figure out how to do purchase orders even with support helping us.  There is no export button for your inventory, so they keep it captive if you choose to go somewhere else.

### "Meh" — 3.0/5

> **Daria** | *28 February 2019* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For basic every day sales it’s ok, nothing fancy.
> 
> **Cons**: It doesn’t have competition between employees or locations, you can’t check what the average price of the product type that you sell, you can’t open your own report from another day and can’t see all the products you sold in a nice organized  way - you can only see a long list which is annoying.&#10;Also why can’t I edit the note from past sales - this is the worst.
> 
> My experience with LivePOS is frustrating, it always fails with unknown error and always get stuck. The design of the program is childish. But it kind of works and that’s what I have to use when I work, but I prefer NOVA.

### "LivePos" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *4 March 2019* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: LivePOS is a user friendly software. It is easy to use and it has simple design and theme.
> 
> **Cons**: Worst part of this software is it’s error which happens occasionally. You need to restart the program  in order to get rid off this problem every time.

-----

### "Simplicity" — 4.0/5

> **Brittney** | *30 January 2017* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Customer assistance is excellent&#13;&#10;Real-time inventory management (Live inventory)&#13;&#10;User friendly
> 
> **Cons**: IOS apps/installation compatibility
> 
> A great way of saving money is to find the best solution for your business. I found mine in LivePOS. I love how the system works hand in hand with the admin dashboard and helps me manage each location anywhere in the world using (just) my mobile phone
