Why Business Owners Should Invest In The Clover POS

By Betty Edwards


Payment transactions are part of the business process that was first made to be digital. This gives both business owners a better way of documenting and keeping track of the transactions that happen. A POS or Point of Sale system is essentially a cash register that does more and makes the whole accounting process so much easier.

POS systems inherently make the cashiers job easy. It also helps owner and businessmen track their sales and inventory. The first few ones that is used in the market runs on those ones with the green blinking text and the black background. Now, technology has helped programmers come up with a cloud based device called Clover POS.

Apart from the benefits that any system gets from the cloud, this particular POS is specially designed for the purpose of business. This does not only extend to the software but also the hardware. It is essentially a tablet, With a stand, a scanner and a printer. The more common and old school ones that are still used have the same set up, only bulkier and with limited features.

The tablet is touch screen, of course and using it would feel a lot like using your phone. Since devices now have a tendency to connect to other networks like the WiFi or other devices, many may ask if Clover has security issues. The best thing about this is how the hardware itself is especially built for the POS purpose.

Aesthetically, the hardware is white and sleek. It gives a somewhat Apple vibe only it is not as expensive.All the plugs are properly color coded and makes setting it up easy. The stand is flexible and lets the tablet swing around the 360 degrees so customers can use the interface for signatures when using their credit cards.

The design is very Apple like with its white and silver chasis. This is designed to also process hardware and software without needing any extra keypads and equipment. All of these things can be done through the touch screen tablet and scanner. The printer is also relatively small so the whole set up does not have to take up so much space in the counter.

This is what give the Android POS an edge. The only limit you have for customization depends on the limit you have on expending for extra application development. There are special made applications that you can add and buy from Clover that were also made by third party developer. The prices are not determined by the company that created the hardware and built in applications but by the third party developer.

There is also the option of buying applications that can expand the function of your POS set up. These are sold via Clover and therefore would need some sort of standardization with the authorized developers of the POS brand to actually be distributed. This company makes it a point to lessen distribution of faulty and compromising applications for their platform.

The speed and efficiency are just at the top part of benefits that you get when working with Clover. The accuracy that this offers you can save time and effort from trying to track down any discrepancies that you may find in the records. You are also allowed remote control over the system through you mobile device via the cloud.
