THE WORST! Can use it to sync with other accounting software, entering product is combersome and slow and worst of all – this thing is SLOW! the little spinning wheel appears constantly when trying to do something super simple like ring up a sale. It takes several minutes to ring up a sale on this thing which is really annooying when you have a customer waiting.

Checkout support has been useless sending us in circles. They said we needed to wire everything to get it to work faster. So we spent alot of time and money wireing our network and it actually got slower. then they admitted that they know about the issues with speed but didnt know when or if it would ever be fixed.

DO NOT BUY. ITS A NIGHTMARE.

I recently bought this program and just realized it’s a waste of money. It does not integrate with quickbooks besides journal entries. A point of sale system must be able to communicate with an accounting program. Otherwise what’s the use? DO NOT BUY!!!

We have been using Checkout since version 1 first came on the scene, and over time we have noticed more and more issues that may render this program absolutely useless.

Despite the thousands of bugs in the system our largest problem has been with MYOB’s support program. We signed up for a 1 year full support plan at $31.79 a month. After about 6 month’s we started having serious issues with version 3.0 (while ringing up orders the program would crash completely and remain inoperable) and contacted support. After 2 weeks with all our phone calls and emails being ignored and unanswered we finally got someone to talk to us. Unfortunately it took them another week and a half to even try and fix the issue, and at which time they informed me that my credit card number had changed and they would not help till I gave them my new number. I reluctantly gave them my new number and was accidentally charged 5 TIMES! I am still waiting for my refund and a new alternative for our POS system. Avoid Checkout support at ALL COST!
