    Elavon Inc.
    This tool is most usable when used in parallel with Sage's accounting management software, as with other accounting systems it can generate errors, leaving room for other credit card payment processor alternatives to exist and be preferred by other potential users for their overall performance. It is promising the ability to develop transaction reports in summary or detailed form, resulting in a better management of income to then make the distribution of budgets in the company, thus achieving better planning and performance of our work. This service allows the processing of payments through touch screen card devices at POS points of sale without having to be sitting at your laptop, fortunately with face to face payments companies with fixed establishments can get their money faster, which constantly benefits the flow of money.

    • Simple. If you use a Sage accounting product the integration is seamless.
    • PCI compliant. PCI compliance is assured through the provided Trustwave audit.
    • Secure. Keeps all card numbers remotely, none stored locally where they could be exposed by a hack or dishonest employee.
    • Robust. API for integrating into multiple web platforms and extensive reporting capabilities through the secure web portal.

    Cons
    Digital River
    • Their flexibility and customizability are lacking. Changes to our cart or store require a lot of lead time discussions and development time.
    • They have many strange UI implementations for things. One search bar is a wildcard match, while another is a string match. One setting might break your product, or be editable once, but you cannot change it after that one time.

    • When you are reversing a credit card it just deducts from your total batch for the day. Instead of showing a separate charge out of the account. That can cause confusion if someone else is doing your bank reconciliation.
    • It would be nice is Sage Pay could copy over client emails as well as the address and other information so that you can send that email confirmation of charge without having to go back to pull it up.
    • If Sage could post it as a total deposit instead of each individual charge for the day that would also save time with bank reconciliation.

    It plays better with Sage 50. It has better associates should you have an issue. It's reasonably priced.
