Back office is user friendly Cons The one feature that we don't like about CE is the Catering portal as it does not speak to the back office. It almost seems like it's two different systems. For our events coordinator it takes a lot of steps to create a BEO and then she has to go into the back office and create an event. It should be all as one.
