Pros:

I am reviewing a help desk contact. The call we made was answered promptly and the advice given was clear and worked effectively.

Cons:

We would like to see the card terminals offer a Customer Not Present function. Using Pay By Link is very clumsy and relies on Customers to use their mobile 'phones or email correctly, which many do not.

What a waste of time and money

1.0 4 months ago

Comments: Poor
Unprofessional
One sided
Hide behind emails and salesforce loops.

Pros:

The logo. Everything else sucked. This is a very misleading question used by companies that can't look themselves in the mirror and accept that they are not that good. This question should be left to the insecure.

Cons:

The system never worked, the sales rep never showed up to help (although we had a meeting set) and for the past 14 months i have been paying for a service of which I NEVER used. When we finally had a chance to implement the system....the reader would not turn on! Just one failure after another and NOW I have to PAY them to break my contract!!!!! Are you kidding me??? When I tried to call during a very busy time to get this fixed (we are seasonal), I got stuck in the "sales force" continuous loop of BS, only to get frustrated and have a survey sent to me moments later that has NO WAY of contacting a real human...and only really lets you give them kudos. What are we actually teaching the next generation? That mediocre is ok as long as you hit the metric on your current survey goals??

Alternatives Considered: Wix

Reasons for Switching to Epos Now: Originally it looked ok...what a joke.

Eposnow - a great system

5.0 7 months ago

Comments: My experience with Eposnow has been very good. I have had a number of occasions where I have needed to call the helpdesk and every time, the person has solved my query easily and with patience.

Pros:

Eposnow is very simple and easy to use but on the odd occasion that I do need assistance, the help desk are always on hand and quick to help.

Cons:

I had a minor hiccough when I first joined and was not told about the need to have integrated card payments and subsequently incurred an unexpected charge. However, this was rectified.

The most comprehensive EPOS solution

5.0 7 months ago

Comments: We was on an old EPOS and having upgraded to EPOS now allows me amazing insight into my business, I can see my busy periods, get comprehensive sales reports, stock reports and instantly add products across my stores.

Pros:

The most comprehensive EPOS solution for retailers. Cloud data and live sales on your app which by the way is equally as good. I have seen a fair few and this is by far the market leader.

Cons:

I've personally had a bit of bad luck with printers, but thankfully I took the care plan which allows me to warranty my equipment no quibble and quickly.

Alternatives Considered: The EPOS Bureau

Reasons for Choosing Epos Now: Too old and outdated and did not have cloud option

Switched From: Nucleus

Reasons for Switching to Epos Now: By chance and liked the demo and realised this was simpler to understand

DO NOT USE EPOSNOW

1.0 3 months ago

Comments: Absolutely disgusting. Has caused me the most stress this year than anything else.

Pros:

The low eftpos percentage rate. Sucked me in. Not worth the stress EposNow has caused me at all.

Cons:

Double charged me for 3 months despite me telling them each month that this was happening! Then it took MONTHS to recieve back, after hours on the phone and many emails sent. THEN they illegally charged me ANOTHER TIME and I am STILL waiting for this refund! The people on the phone can’t ‘authorise anything’ and have to send it through to a “manager” who you cannot speak to, and who does not approve refunds for months and months and months. No one can tell you what’s going on.

Dear Kendyl, We are truly sorry to hear about the ongoing issues you’ve experienced with overcharging and the stress it has caused.

The worst company I’ve ever seen

1.0 8 months ago

Comments: I would never recommend this company. The customer service I’ve experienced has been a joke, no refund 7 months into contacting them about it, absolutely no help. Closed my ticket without issuing the refund, I attached bank statement proofs of the money they took from me and there has been absolutely no help giving me back my €113, the worst I’ve ever seen in my life. How a successful company can take €113 off of a small business, not even send the product I was charged for and still not giving my money back after receiving proof? Unsure how this is even sustainable. Robbing from small businesses, absolutely disgusting and shocking behaviour. How many customer service representatives have to send it on higher to get a refund? I would never recommend epos now to anyone.

Pros:

Nothing. There has been no help given to us at all.

Cons:

Epos now scammed me out of money. I purchased a full bundle in January for €113 and never received the till, now 7 months later I’m contacting them every day for my refund and being passed around like a spare part with absolutely NO help from anyone of them.

Comments: We signed up with this company they have been unable to provide a working system and now its our fault and we have to pay and exit fee because we have no option but to leave them as we need a working till system. A truly pathetic excuse of a company who no doubt spend more money on there legal department than they do anywhere else.

Pros:

No pros they are a truly awful company, if you sign with them be prepared to talk with a million different representatives and waste your time explaining everything again over and over again

Not fit for purpose

1.0 7 months ago

Comments: Terrible, they have had months of money out of us and we have had 2 weeks of service from them, they need to release the contract obligation and stop theifing money from our small business.

Pros:

We were promised the earth and the customer service delivered nothing, we told them that we need the system for our farm shop and it needed to weigh fruit and vegtables and lots of cheese etc, so we purchased the scales ( very expensive) and was told it would all be easy, i made it clear i had staff of all ages and they explained it would be easy. it was not! it was so slow, it took nearly 65/70 secounds per item, it was taken 10 minutes to serve one customer it was terrible. we explained this, nothing changed, so we had to stop using it, for 14 months since i have been trying to stop the payments coming out of bank and all the time they say "we are in contrat" but what about there contract obligation of a working product fit for purpose! its disgusting and every month they take the money.

Cons:

The fact that they belive they have the right to keep taking monthly payments for doing noting, for providing no service, they can see from our log ins we used it for two weeks, it was so bad we nearly lost our business over it!

Service is horrendous

1.0 8 months ago

Comments: I wouldnt recommend after dealing with this company, good product,good sales and set up, doesnt make up for the absolutely terrible customer service when there is a problem.

Pros:

Nice looking product, modern set up looks good on counter.

Cons:

customer service at your company is a joke, just pass the problem from person to person until the customer gives up calling?.. not sure why the customer service department of your company even exists because resolving issues efficiently and in a timely manor is impossible when getting passed from person to person and nothing gets done,if it wasnt so frustrating it would be funny your literally paying staff to answer a phone, apologise for the problem say they will fix it asap and then that request goes absolutely no where, repeat this process 50 times until you lose your mind and still problem wont be resolved.
