Biggest opportunity: Swap “inventory”, “woocommerce” and “point of sale” for “stripe terminal”, “android” and “neon sign”. “inventory” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “stripe terminal” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “android” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “point of sale” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #14. “neon sign” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.8%
of downloads still active
At least 700 of 90.8K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,151 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 17 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “inventory”, “woocommerce” and “point of sale” for “stripe terminal”, “android” and “neon sign”. “inventory” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “stripe terminal” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “android” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “point of sale” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #14. “neon sign” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “point of sale”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “retail”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ creawebbzh5mo ago
I bought this plugin for a client who uses (or at least tries to use) Oliver POS on a daily basis, and the verdict is clear. Numerous daily glitches: orders that register in WooCommerce and the Hub at €0 even though prices have been entered, and deleted products that continue to appear in the Hub. On top of everything else, the support service is nowhere to be found. Paying for an annual or lifetime subscription is a total rip-off; we should all take legal action against this fraudulent company! When you finally manage to talk to a human, they give you a completely irrelevant answer! It’s really disappointing because, for a small business, investing €250 in point-of-sale software is no small matter… I’m giving it one star because you can’t give it any less. Shame on you @oliverpos !

We attempted to implement Oliver POS (v2.4.2.6) on a WooCommerce site and were unable to complete the initial connection process. After entering the subscription key, the plugin simply spins and returns: {"exceptions":null,"Message":null,"opConnect":"noResponse"} To rule out local configuration issues, we conducted direct server-level testing of the API endpoints used by the plugin. From our production server, the Oliver endpoints revealed in their plugin consistently return HTTP 500 (Internal Server Error). This confirms the failure is occurring server-side within Oliver’s API, not within WordPress or WooCommerce. Additionally, the plugin does not surface meaningful error messages. Instead of reporting the upstream 500 response, it returns a generic "noResponse" result, which makes troubleshooting unnecessarily difficult. Oliver advertises 24/7 support, yet when attempting to contact support during this issue, we were informed no one would be available for approximately 15 hours. For a POS system that relies on external API connectivity, that level of responsiveness is concerning. We cannot recommend a POS solution where: Core onboarding endpoints return 500 errors, Errors are suppressed rather than properly reported, Support is not immediately accessible despite 24/7 claims. (also see all none responsive requests in other reviews!!) Until API reliability and support responsiveness improve, we would advise not to consider this as a reliable POS solution!!

This plugin has a lot of potential. When it works it works well. Many of the features it claims to have do not work properly or maybe I am unable to get them to work, however since support is non-existant I do not know. My last support ticket took 6 weeks to be resolved. SUPPORT, SUPPORT, SUPPORT.

I spent hours analyzing the right POS solution with my client only to select OliverPOS, purchase the paid plan (luckily it’s just a 7-day free trial) and then find out it is no longer being supported. This was confirmed by their support team. Plugin should be removed from the directory.

This extension works well at first glance. But unfortunately, even if unlike others I managed to get support feedback via their site, each of the responses was “it’s on Woocommerce’s side, we can’t do anything”. I think that this extension had its moment of glory but that now (they are normally preparing big changes according to their support) the support leaves something to be desired, the extension itself seems to be abandoned with no one behind it. If you are looking for a POS extension for your store, consider another one, you will relieve yourself of a headache. Once again, it’s a shame because initially the extension does the job perfectly.
