But ended up managing this and all good in the end. ----- ### "Shopify POS Works Great with 3rd Party Apps" — 4.0/5 > **Amber** | *October 22, 2024* | Maritime | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the ability to integrate our online store with our brick \& mortar location. Before Shopify, we had to put in every order twice to capture the online sale. Now it's simple to manage our products both online and in store. > > **Cons**: It doesn't have the ability to do Weighted Average Cost (or any other costing method that isn't FIFO). Additionally, Shopify POS doesn't have any report to track adjustments made to inventory-- you must go into each individual item to view adjustment history per item. There's no way to track bulk adjustments made in the inventory screen. We use 3+ apps just to make Shopify POS work as a normal POS should. > > Overall, we are able to find work arounds for most issues and eventually we get things working. The convenience of the Shopify POS App is sometimes overshadowed by a need for 3rd party apps, and lots of time fiddling around. A major plus is that most issues that I encounter are issues for everyone else too, so I can usually find my answers in an archive somewhere. The bad news is that some issues have been around for years and are still not resolved. For instance, the month-end inventory snapshot sometimes takes up to 2 weeks into the new month to show the month prior. ----- ### "SHOPIFY POS software itself is trash, disconnects from the 3rd party hardware it requires you use" — 1.0/5 > **Will** | *June 17, 2025* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: SHOPIFY POS IS AWFUL --- The receipt printer and barcode scanners disconnect daily and Shopify support is completely useless to fix this despite thousands of merchants discussing it in their forums. > > **Cons**: The receipt printer and barcode scanners disconnect daily and require manual resets of the entire system while customers are waiting and we are losing sales ----- ### "Shopify POS for Ease" — 5.0/5 > **Regina** | *January 24, 2026* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Shopify POS is it keeps everything in one place—inventory, payments, and customer info—so checkout is fast and stress-free. > > **Cons**: What I like least about Shopify POS is that the cost of add-ons and upgrades can feel expensive, especially for small businesses just getting started. > > My overall experience with Shopify POS has been great. It’s user-friendly, efficient, and perfect for in-person sales, pop-ups, and events. It helps my business run smoothly and keeps everything synced in one system. ----- ### "Superior analytics" — 5.0/5 > **Darren** | *November 18, 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The UI and how easy it is to use. Specifically, I like how simple it is to being able look up products. > > **Cons**: Adding an existing customer to an order. > > The analytics are quite superior to any other industry specific tool available to us. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/125371/shopify-pos?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/125371/shopify-pos) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
