Toast POS vs OrderUp: Which is a better fit?

Julia: Hi, my name is Julia. I am the owner of Kin Southern Table and Bar located in downtown Providence, Rhode Island. We are a full-service restaurant offering Southern comfort food or what we like to call soul food. And out of five stars, I would give Toast a four. Prior to Toast, we did not have anything, any sort of software. We opened our restaurant in 2021 during the pandemic and Toast was our first option, and we've kept it since we've opened. I ended up choosing Toast because the great price point for the monthly services. I thought it was great because it was customizable. We were able to expand and add additional items onto our program, like gift cards. We've expanded to delivery service and I thought that as our business grew, that would be really important to us. I think the onboarding process was really easy for us. We had a lot of support, whether it was through Zoom calls or just onsite and our initial salesperson. We definitely felt like we had a team working with us to make sure that we were able to get up and running in time for our opening day. If anyone is considering Toast out there, I definitely recommend doing some research, speak with other restaurateurs and see what they also love about Toast. I know for me the biggest selling point was just how easy it was. It's a very intuitive program. It's super customizable. Like we said, we were able to enhance our initial product and we've added on so many different things that help make our day-to-day operations easy. But definitely do some research.
