    We use Cardknox differently than I imagine most people would. For example, we do not use their client database feature, as we have all that stored in our medical system. Another type of business would likely find that feature a big help. We are very pleased with Cardknox's service and support, which is not often required.

    Vantiv is excellent for companies that need to be able to accept credit cards and want to keep accurate reports. However, if you ever need to contact customer service or your account rep, be prepared to be extremely frustrated. Vantiv recently merged with another company, and we are having a very difficult time getting information from our account manager about how to access out account now.

    • In my experience, Some of the WORST tech support/customer service I've ever experienced
    • Two of the last four years, gift cards crashed for multiple days during our Black Friday sale
    • Duplicate charges
    • Fraud controls are weak and (for gift cards) cost extra for dubious protection
    • It took them over a month (and constant badgering) to give us a copy of our contract
    • The system crashes quite a bit, leaving our locations without any ability to charge customers
    • I dread having to deal with WorldPay, yet have to on a daily, if not weekly, basis

    As long as Vantiv continues to improve and we can get better responses from customer service, we will likely continue to use Vantiv. However, if customer service declines, we will likely look for something else

    Many customer support employees of Vantiv do not seem to know much about the Vantiv website. I have been transferred around to as many as four different people to get an answer to what I thought was a simple question. I am not sure if it would be possible to receive adequate support for a more complex issue.

    We have used other card processors, but in my opinion, Cardknox is in another league. Their product works; it is easy to install; it is constantly being improved, and they have great support.

    ANYONE would be better than Worldpay. My parent company requires its use. Otherwise, I would have run away screaming a long time ago.

    Return on Investment
    Sola
    • Patients are much more secure giving us their credit card information since we have switched to using Cardknox. They even have the option of entering it themselves to reduce any risk of the number being overheard to zero.
    • It is much faster and smoother to find and charge a card when necessary.

    • Positive- More clients are enticed to use World Pay when they hear the benefits.
    • Negative- Customer service lacks so our clients tend to complain about that.
    • Negative- Rates can be a little high depending if client is currently using a local bank.
