### 1/5 — Awful

*2021-01-25, version 8.1.2*

We have been with Heartland for years and have never had an issue until this software version was forced on us. The same issues as previously reported the app is not reliable, logs out during transactions, and sometime will not log in for days. 
Tried talking with technical support and they tell me there is no problem with their software.

### 1/5 — Bring back previous Heartland app

*2020-10-05, version 7.4*

All previous comments are spot on. This app simply doesn’t work. If you are a retail business depending on this app to process your credit/debit transactions then you are out of luck. This app continuously gives error notices on transactions after several minutes of processing. Sometimes it crashes and the app closes. All while your customer patiently waits. It doesn’t work more often than it does work. Not good for business.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2020-07-18, version 7.2*

Not user friendly

### 1/5 — Terrible at best

*2020-07-17, version 7.2*

This app is terrible at best. Rarely works, and don’t get me started with the slider you can get. Best to find a different company

### 1/5 — App

*2020-05-27, version 7.1*

Doesn’t slow for Face ID to log you on any more and sometimes as time out issue where it just loads payment screen and then fails.

### 1/5 — Problems

*2020-04-22, version 7.0*

This app has problems. We’ve been using Heartland for a couple of years now and everything was fine...until the developers staring screwing around with it. Now it’s worthless. The problems started a few months back and have gotten worse with every update. Can’t even login at this point.

### 1/5 — Tip screen is ridiculous

*2019-12-16, version 6.4.2*

The app is ridiculous because of the 5%tip option. Being able to leave .81 on a delivery is crazy. Not a great app I like the old app better only because of the tip screen, everything else is great just the tip screen.

### 1/5 — Restaurant owner

*2019-12-15, version 6.4.2*

There is a fatal flaw in the app. A 5% tip option is simply ridiculous.  Old application allowed me to set the percentages as I see fit. Also having problems with the swipers that Are needed to run the application.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2019-11-01, version 6.1.2*

Unable to use due to a glitch in developers app saying batcHes need to close. Have 11 of these units that are unusable and neither Heartland or Apriva will fix. You are better off with any other product.

### 1/5 — Wish we never switched to this company

*2019-10-29, version 6.1.2*

This app costs me so much money every day. Delete the 5% and 10% option in the tip page

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Poor customer service

*2026-06-24, version 10.23*

Not transparent about fees and other issues

### 1/5 — Wish I could leave 0 stars

*2023-10-16, version 10.11*

Did my very 1st event the system does not work, kept crashing and none of my credit card transactions,contactless pay or nothing went through! I basically gave away all of my products for free and I lost so much time and money

### 1/5 — What

*2023-07-07, version 10.9*

This app literally DOES NOT WORK. The Heartland ECSI website will not accept payment and keeps giving me errors over and over so I tried downloading the app but it will not even allow me to sign in. I type in username and password and it doesn’t even fill in the button to sign in. I try multiple times, even deleting and re-downloading the app but it will not work no matter what I try. Then I try the help line and it’s disconnected. This app and Heartland ECSI is a complete joke!!! If they want my money at least make it possible for me to give it to them!!! I’ve tried everything and cannot set up recurring payments. They want to make you pay month to month to charge you and extra fee. The creators of the website and this app should be FIRED!!!

### 1/5 — Apriva not meeting customer needs

*2023-03-07, version 10.8.5*

Heartland is a great company that will go out of the way to help you. UNFORTUNATELY, Heartland uses Apriva to do the software side of the application. They are less than helpful and rude. The wait time is outrageous and issues are given a “ticket” that even takes longer.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2022-12-31, version 10.8.1*

It’s a scam, don’t use this app to deal with money!

### 1/5 — Complete joke

*2022-09-25, version 10.7.2*

Useless software.  Complete failure when the customer needs help other software that doesn’t work.  Customer support tells my items an app vendor problem.  No, I worked there at Heartland, I know the backend systems, I wrote mobile apps for a living.  This is “your” problem heartland.  Not you app vendor.  Leaving ASAP.

### 1/5 — This system doesn’t work

*2022-05-18, version 10.5.2*

Im a cashier and i been dealing with this system for the last 3 days and is horrible!!!

### 1/5 — Do not use! False confirmation pages!

*2022-04-25, version 10.5.2*

Made several sales during an internet outage. We had customer signatures on screen and got what appeared to be a confirmation page. After a few minutes we double checked batches and only ONE charge had processed. We lost several hundred dollars in sales and product. If they screen shows a confirmation it should be screen shot or downloaded. No reason to have a customer sign before hand. Will use Square for mobile transactions from now on.

### 1/5 — This app is god awful

*2021-12-20, version 10.3*

It constantly glitches out and has server problems. Working at a high volume restaurant, this is unacceptable so if you’re a busy place, I highly recommend just getting something else cause this will give you nothing but a constant headache

### 1/5 — Kicked me out

*2021-10-22, version 10.2.3*

The system for some reason kicked me out and I have been trying to get back in for 3 weeks. Everything they have tried is not working.

### 5/5 — Easy Setup and looks professional

*2024-08-15, version 10.14.1*

I’m not very good with tech, and this was by far the easiest, most intuitive point of sale system.

### 5/5 — Quick/Easy, Can send invoices, too !

*2023-06-23, version 10.9*

This is very user friendly. As soon as you download and log in, you’re ready to process. I love sending my invoices through this app as well!! Great product.

### 5/5 — Excellent for Small Business

*2022-10-24, version 10.8*

Easy to use and excellent for my small business.

### 5/5 — Good backup option

*2022-09-28, version 10.8*

Good for backup or emergency

### 5/5 — User friendly

*2021-10-26, version 10.2.3*

Very user friendly app. Good to use when credit card machines are down and need a backup.

### 3/5 — Good app when working

*2020-04-17, version 7.0*

It’s a good app when working. It does have a issues that have been listed here. We have tried to rebooting WiF, device, updating nothing has helped We really need this app to be working we are depending on it a great deal.

### 3/5 — New update isn’t good

*2019-11-18, version 6.4.2*

User interface is easy but tip percentages too small on top of page after you swipe card. Most people can’t see them and skip right by it

### 2/5 — Leaving Heartland

*2022-01-15, version 10.3*

Went to charge a customer and app says I need an update. Tried to update but need iOS 13. So frustrating!

### 2/5 — Transactions not processing correctly.

*2020-04-17, version 6.5*

First 3 weeks great (March 17 - April 14, starting April 15th started having issues. Some transactions time out and get error messages saying it didn’t process. Run card again then you get 2 approved transactions for the same amount. Tried everything from rebooting modems, using different WiFi networks, rebooting mobile card readers, deleting app and reinstalling it. Works fine for a few transactions than it starts failing again. Have called customer service and they say all is good with their servers. Baffled.

### 2/5 — New update not so great

*2019-12-03, version 6.4.2*

New update, not an improvement.  Tip option is not calculating correctly.
