### "Avoid them"

December 20, 2024

1.0

We are part of a franchise and can not change or we would.

Pros

Very little. Their installation was problematic. It worked Ok for a week or 2 then problems occurred they would or could not fix.

Cons

They are non responsive and inflexible. Constant problems with the register and system and poor to no response time. We have had recurring problems with their system, follow their protocol to fix, get nothing fixed time and time again

### "Do not do it"

October 11, 2024

1.0

I want to love spot n but I can't. I've probably work for them more than I do running my restaurant. Its so embarrassing.

Pros

The set up was easy, the system is user friendly.

Cons

If it works its great but the handhelds always have issues. I have 8 handhelds most weeks I'm down to 1-2 due to systems issues. Not taking payments. Emv issues. They take up hours of my day trying to troubleshoot and it still doesn't work. I've only been open for 5 months and I have had hundreds of tickets and calls regarding fixing the same issue. Yes they expect me to troubleshoot and fix and its only temporary. Within a few more days I have to do the same thing, spent hours on the phone for a temporary fix.

### "Interested in SpotOn? MoveOn"

September 16, 2024

1.0

I am extremely disappointed with SpotOn’s services and lack of professionalism. We entered into an agreement with SpotOn under the promise of a comprehensive food truck setup and a system that would function without internet connectivity. Unfortunately, none of these promises were fulfilled. The Kitchen Display System (KDS) has not been working as expected, and despite our repeated attempts to get help, we have received no resolution. Communication with SpotOn has been abysmal. Every request for a manager’s callback has been ignored, leaving us to deal with significant operational challenges on our own. This situation has led to the loss of multiple food truck events and forced a 24-hour delay in opening our brick-and-mortar establishment due to the menu team’s failure to complete their responsibilities. The lack of professionalism extends to the website team as well, who have consistently ignored our emails. This entire experience has been extremely frustrating and unacceptable. Given these ongoing issues, we are now seeking a full refund for the services and equipment provided, along with the termination of our contract. I urge SpotOn to address this matter immediately, as our attorney is now involved and will be sending a formal letter if this is not resolved promptly.

Pros

Sales rep & installer were the only two employees from SpotOn that have attempted to rectify the ongoing issues. I’ve requested the local manager call me 5+ times now - I’ve never once heard from him.

Cons

I like nothing about SpotOn. The in-house issues it’s now causing has taken it to a new level of dissatisfaction.

### "Pretty Good"

September 25, 2024

4.0

Pros

I love how clean & simple this POS is. I like the layout, and the reporting aspect is great. I love the dual-pricing. I like that they offer a cellular backup incase of an internet problem. Building menu's and adding items is easy. I love all the different printer options, taxing etc. You can get pretty specific. I love the permission's based job positions.

Cons

It's not meant for pizza places. The customer info is hard, I wish the phone number name and address would automatically pop up. I don't like when it goes down. I don't like that there's three different websites (BOH, reporting, Dashboard) and then another if you get gift cards (through ECS.)

### "I definitely recommend SpotOn"

September 12, 2024

4.0

Great reps, someone’s always nearby to help, very versatile. Overall I’ve enjoyed it and it works well with our restaurant amenities - happy hour, private parties, etc.

Pros

Very user friendly for staff. Pretty user friendly for back of house. Tech support and (especially \[sensitive content hidden\]) are very responsive and helpful. I also appreciate how everything is intertwined if you go with the whole package - POS, Reserve, & Teamwork.

Cons

Had black out issues and the entire POS deleted itself before dinner service one day, but it was back up and running pretty quickly. I also wish there was a way to add more than one button at a time to the menu screens list at the bottom of each screen. Very time consuming to set up, but once it’s done it’s done.

Love the adaptability and how easy it is to change. Install was a little rough due to a faulty router. But no fault of anybody.

Pros

### "Exceptional Service from Spot On/\[sensitive content hidden\]"

February 19, 2024

5.0

Pros

I recently had the pleasure of working with Spot On, particularly with \[sensitive content hidden\], and I must say, the service provided was exceptional. From the moment we inquired about their Point of Sale (POS) system, \[sensitive content hidden\] was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure we got the best deal possible. One of the standout aspects of our experience was the competitive rate offered for their POS system. Not only did Spot On match the rates of a popular POS system, but they actually managed to beat it, which was a pleasant surprise. This demonstrated their commitment to providing value for their customers. Moreover, \[sensitive content hidden\] expertise and professionalism were evident throughout the process. He took the time to understand our specific needs and tailored the solution accordingly. He patiently addressed all our questions and concerns, ensuring we felt confident in our decision. Overall, I highly recommend Spot On and \[sensitive content hidden\] Monroy for anyone in need of a reliable POS system and exceptional service. Their competitive rates, coupled with their personalized approach, make them a standout choice in the industry.

Cons

A few months ago, we had problems with our credit card processing. They quickly found out that the software was outdated so they quickly updated it. Problem resolved.

### "Wish I would've looked at reviews"

July 14, 2023

2.0

I have had nothing but issues from the very moment I agreed to sign up. I was sold hard on the program as it was hard for me to make the change, and once I signed up- it was nothing but issues. At one point I just went back to my original Point of Sale and continued just making my monthly payments on the SpotOn program still trying to get my funds refunded back to me. One of the managers actually had the audacity to negotiate my refund amount with me. Then told me my previous rep had called them and told them she didn't make a mistake and that I had signed up for splitting the transaction fee with my customer? WHAT.

Pros

I thought the ease of taking a credit card as payment would be beneficial to my business. A lot of Point of Sale systems charge a transaction fee for each transaction, so to me, it should help me make things flow smoother day to day.

Cons

What I like the very least about SpotOn is the amount of missing funds that I found when I looked into my account. I had to then go spend quite a bit of time double checking everything to make sure I was getting paid. That alone was the biggest deterrent. The application, and what I found out later was their only contract, which was unfortunate because our service representative signed us up for both fee options not one or the other. Our business had the option to pass along the fee to the customer or to split the fee with the customer. For some reason, we were signed up for both. We had some pages that were showing one way and others for another option. I trusted my rep to submit the application in completion and for some reason that did not happen. The odd thing was that a couple months into our contract, the fee was option was switched. They claimed it was changed because it was incorrect. No one informed us of this. The new fee was different from what I had intially signed up for. One rep on the phone looked up our contract online and also made the statement that it looked like we had signed up for both options. But how could that have made any sense? Were we getting charged for even more? I reached out to my rep about the fees coming out on our end as well as the customers and was told she would look into it. Never heard back. Months later when my funds got frozen, I reached out to her only to find out she was let go. No one told me, I just was left without help.

### "Spot on replaces Emagine POS "

August 21, 2023

3.0

1-10, id say 2

Pros

I think Spot on, since taking over Emagine POS, has gone down hill, You never know who you will be getting support from. The reporting does not seem accurate. Not happy with it at all. Would definately be looking in to another POS system if my father wasnt so dedicated to \[sensitive content hidden\] and \[sensitive content hidden\] who sold to Spot on (I think thats what happend). Sent us a computer that was "New" but was linked up with another company, so def not new. Trying to hook up a register drawer to our take out computer....yeah that doesnt work. Networks are all screwed up. Not easy to set up anything. Just simply not happy. Was better off with Emagine. But event with them towards the end. Would have looked into another POS system. Maybe you should send people out on the field to help people, that may not be computer literate, to get through issues. just saying.... not everyone knows a lot about setting up computers, etc. Send techs out to help, would make a big difference. Spot on, absolutely do not reccommend for small business owners. but yes, maybe you are good for the Lincoln Finaical Center in Philadelphia.

Cons

You could improve by sending out people to help small business owners understand the step up and features you offer, you pretty much make us figure things out on our own.... adding a new printer or register, good luck. Our takeout register wont hook up with spot on and open, like our bar register. Try talking to "\[sensitive content hidden\] " from where ever the hell he is located, no answers. cant figure things out. Send out technicians or send out reps to help and not over the phone. you literally get nowhere and throw in the towel and half ass work with what you can use.

### "Winner Winner Chicken Dinner, Eischen's Bar and SpotOn"

April 1, 2022

5.0

From the very beginning when we started using SpotOn only for credit cards we have felt valued as a customer. This value has only increased as we moved into the POS system. Our sales rep \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] made sure if he did not know the answer he investigates and found it for us during our decision making process. He was very diligent in his response and overall communications and continues to be available for our needs. The support staff with SpotOn especially Don Bisbee has made sure our conversion to SpotOn's POS system was a very positive experience. He continues to check in and be available for all of our needs. Don spend many hours with us during the conversion and made sure we were extremely comfortable with the product before his next install. His attention to detail in regards to the KDS portion of the POS was invaluable. He is a great representative of SpotOn

Pros

This was our second POS system and the anxiety of change was high. SpotOn did a great job in working with us from the menu design through install date. We are a unique restaurant that is very set in our ways. SpotOn did a great job grasping our needs and adjusting / showing which portion of their software would work for us. The software is very user friendly and was easier to adjust to than expected. SpotOn has been very prompt with any questions/requests/problems we have come across thus eliminating them.

Cons

We include taxes with our food items and the existing Daily Sale Reports breakdown as net. We have been able to adjust our reporting to accommodate and SpotOn is always working on new reports. It would also be nice to have a product mix report you can run for a specific timeframe.

### "Very Customizable POS System. Excellent Reporting. All features needed for success."

March 6, 2023

4.0

Reporting has been amazing and has really helped our manager stay on top of their metrics.Integrations with 7 Shifts scheduling has been a game changer.We are detailed technical people so we were able to customize many features that made sense for our restaurants. Not the prettiest UI, more like an Android but no major complaints from servers.

Pros

The Reporting is a STAR versus our experiences with other POS like CAKE, NCR/Aloha.There are alot of great features that cater to tableside service restaurants like ours.A little overwhelming but There is a custom feature for almost every different item in the restaurant. Authorizations for different roles, control of delivery services, multi-location management, modifiers, discounts. Much more robust than other services I have used (CAKE, UPSERVE/Lightspeed, NCR)

Cons

The Sales Staff was not the friendliest. The implementation team also had a very bad attititude. The job got done with both but it was a rough experience.Customer service is decent. They have been getting better over time! A few downtime issues have occurred and SpotOn does not have an offline payment processing mode.They do however, install back-up 5G LT but forgot to train our managers on how to switch over to this network quickly.

### "The best POS system I've ever used"

January 31, 2020

5.0

The software is great, but the best part is the customer support! Real people that care about your business built your menu for you, do extensive menu reviews until it's 99% perfect, and then come install it and stay with you the whole first day! When you need manager or back-of-house training, they will dedicate hours to you to make sure you understand everything you need to know. And there's all kinds of cool bonuses, like the reporting app, manager app, and even social media review management!

Pros

I love that SpotOn is so intuitive and easy to use. The extensive reports are extremely helpful to gain valuable insight into your business, it comes with online ordering built-in (so you don't have to pay a 3rd party) and you can run multiple restaurants from one back office. Cloud-based means you can do all paperwork from anywhere, and the back office is extremely easy to navigate.

Cons

That more restaurants don't use it! It's annoying when I'm eating at a restaurant and it takes my waiter so long to put in orders, print checks, etc. I see them struggling and I want to go install SpotOn myself right then!

Reason for choosing SpotOn

None of these other systems have anywhere close to the level of support as SpotOn. I used to have nightmares about calling support for Aloha, Clover, etc, but now I actually enjoy calling support! A human at their call center in Detroit picks up immediately! Plus, you can tell that SpotOn was built exclusively for restaurants, unlike many others that are credit card companies first.

### "Spot On Restaurant"

July 27, 2022

Pros

The customer service is top notch. Every time I call in, whoever is on the other line is always ready and eager to answer any questions I may have. They also provide useful input on strategy with how to create a button, modifier or how to implement an idea I have in my head and put it to use via our POS.

Cons

The keyboard is the only negative thing with SpotOn. It's a funny joke amongst our staff at how awesome the system is top to bottom but the keyboard is the only part of SpotOn restaurant we don't understand.

### "From Install to Support Spoton has been Terrific"

August 27, 2021

5.0

Overall the experience has been incredibly positive, and I would highly recommend Spoton to any restauranteur. The exceptional bright spot for me has been the amazing help and guidance of \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], she did our initial install and has been an absolute savior when it comes to quick support questions and programming. Spoton has a great employee and partner in \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], I know that I personally appreciate everything she has done to make my experience with Spoton easy and amazing.

Pros

As you probably can tell by now, it is super easy to use and program. From the moment of install to the ongoing training and support, the team at SpotOn has been fantastic. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] did our install and has been a valuable asset to our team as ongoing Support as well.

Cons

There is not much that I don't like. It is super easy and intuitive. The only issue we have had was when the CC processor went down for 2.5 hours one night. But even then, the Spoton team kept us updated and informed and they cam back online before the close of day.

### "\[sensitive content hidden\] is STELLAR"

February 14, 2024

5.0

Overall things are great. The support system is much improved than it was originally. I would still suggest that the same person working on a support ticket follow it through to the end/completion. We often have 3-4 people try to help us with issues and have to repeat the problem several times to get them up to speed. We are pleased with the improvements in reliability of the system compared to a year ago this time.

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] is STELLAR! We have had the great fortune of working with him over the last 6 months. He is a man of many talents. He has helped us troubleshoot and resolve some printer issues (hardware), and worked through some programming issues (software) with our integration to R365 accounting. He is always very easy to work with and quick to respond. He is willing to really dig deep and figure out our issues. We love working with him.

Cons

Early on we could tell that you were growing too fast and too big. There were lots of situations with lapse in communication and release of new features that didn't work properly. As well several times that the reporting sites when down during very busy shifts. It didn't earn a lot of trust with our teams. We really want to implement the Handheld devices for our servers and the product is completely different than the workstation. Its like teaching someone to use 2 different systems. Make them the same please. AND SOON!

Amazing, I would say start to finish, however the communication and support has not stopped and its incredible to talk with people that want to help and make the systems the best they can be for your needs.

Pros

The implementation process was amazing allowing you to use the software for your individual needs and operations, Software helps bring all your needs under one platform, from operations to accounting, Consumer to wensite.

Cons

I have to say there really is nothing I am not happy about as it relates to the software. Working with the SpotOn team allowed us to adjust reporting, accounting and formulate into our system.

Reason for choosing SpotOn

I have used many POS systems in the past, And all of these systems had a few good points, but none of them brought the efficiencies across the board and integrated our entire system together.

### "SpotOn Delivers Peace of Mind and Profitability "

July 27, 2022

5.0

Pros

Top on our list of what we like most about the SpotOn software is the ability to customize the screens and the reports to fit our needs. The ability to log in from anywhere and make changes on the go is also one of the most helpful and impactful features. The reports are easy to interpret and share. Staff timekeeping and payroll is a breeze. Our staff love the ease of the screens and how easy it is to modify items add new items or create events.

Cons

We are very pleased with this software. We have recently began using the handheld tablets and our only complaint with those was not having the ability to start a tab. However, SpotOn contacted us and said this feature was going to be implemented and asked if we would like to be part of the Beta testing for that feature. So far it is going great and we appreciate that they listen to the users and are always looking to add helpful features and updates.

Reason for choosing SpotOn

We chose SpotOn based on our salesman, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]. We felt he was honest, he provided answers to all of our questions and went above and beyond to get questions answered that he did not know. His follow up was impeccable and we were very impressed with the features he put in front of us, how it would benefit us and how we could save money and time with the SpotOn software.
