SPENT ON THIS SYSTEM AND IT'S PROVEN TO BE ABOUT 25% USEFUL. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND JUST GO WITH A SIMPLE SQUARE SYSTEM FOR A COUPLE THOUSAND DOLLARS.

Pros

SCANNING RETAIL ITEMS IS GOOD. ITEM LOOKUP IS GOOD. SENDS ORDERS TO THE KITCHEN CORRECTLY (BUT USER SCREEN IS CUMBERSOME).

Cons

BACK OFFICE FUNCTIONALITY IS HORRIBLE. CREATES WORK FOR 2 PEOPLE INSTEAD OF IMPROVING PRODUCTIVITY FOR ONE PERSON. INVENTORY MGMT IS A NIGHTMARE. UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY 2 FULL TIME PEOPLE TO KEEP UP WITH BACK OFFICE AND DO A PHYSICAL COUNT WEEKLY, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY BENEFIT FROM THIS PROGRAM. REPORTING FEATURES ARE HORRIBLE. YOU CAN NOT CUSTOMIZE REPORTING INFORMATION AT ALL. THE UPC PRINTER PROGRAM THEY OFFER IN NOT RETAIL FRIENDLY UNLESS YOU HAVE LARGE ITEMS TO PUT THEM ON.

Review source

Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

Pros

The program itself is incredibly easy to navigate. Editing, building menus and scheduling platforms, payments and service functions were excellent.

Cons

They still have no plans to put in a chip card reader and there was a major breech within our business area. When we tried to work through it with them, they ignored all of our communications.

Review source

Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

Independent research methodology

Capterra's researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users.
