### "Microworks Works Well and saves Time"

January 19, 2021

4.0

We absolutely loved the system before 8. Used it for 7 years with very little problem. It was wonderful. What the system figures said I believed but now I have to wonder sometimes. When we switched we purchased all new computers new wires etc. Your tech people try there best to get things straitened out . But we are still not there. I wonder If we got your new router if that would correct things?

Pros

We used RapidFire for 10 years. We were well satisfied but they went out of business. I was in a hury to replace the system quickly because the computers were failing. Looked in the pizza magazines saw your add and downloaded the sample. We were impressed with Prism .It did so much more than Rapidfire. I made a quick decision to purchase the sytem. We like the back of the house programs for bookkeeping. The system was easy to use . A new girl can learn the system in 2 days. The delivery part is very well thought out and easy to use. The web ordering is also great. This was your sytem before 8

Cons

With the new system all the features are even better,but the system runs slower for example when assigning drivers to 3 deliveries and the save button is hit there is a delay of 15 seconds before the transaction is complete. We also have credit card issues . If the internet goes out for just a moment the card is approved but not taken off the slip. It is entered on the card company report but not on Prism report. The screens are harder to push than before. The screens go to a light color same times and lock up. A new hiccup just started If you hit status for driver then try end report it stays and have to shut screen off to get it to go away. Also we have had issues with the printers stop working because of too many print jobs in memory. That problem may have been resolved. WE need coupons that ring up all items for a special . Also need coupons to change color for active.

### "Return to Microworks"

February 17, 2021

5.0

My original purchase was a Upserve system because it was a cloud based. That was a total mistake. The Upserve system was not designed for a take out pizza business. I used Microworks in the early 2000's and decided to go back and see what they had to offer. I am very satisficed I went back!

Pros

This software if fantastic for a take out delivery pizzeria operation. The ease of adding menu items or coupons is very user friendly. I love the Google Maps integration, credit cards, and gift cards.

Cons

The back end reports could be more user friendly and the inventory module is a bit cumbersome. I still have not gotten the inventory where it needs to be. Maybe customers could pay for help setting this up during the initial set up? I would love a cloud option so I could make updates and work from home.

### "Wish they can add a app"

February 8, 2021

3.0

I been using them since 2011, but 10 years later they still don’t have a app to make it easier for the customers just to download the app from the restaurant and start their order right away like Slice, GrubHub, Uber, Door Dash etc. costumers shouldn’t be tapping in the website every time they want to place an order way too many steps ! I hope they get an App soon that works with the POS together otherwise is not worth it anymore.

Pros

It’s easy to navigate and most employees will be able to know how to use it with in 2 weeks.

Cons

We already 2021 and the only thing this company is missing is a APP

### "Micro Works Prism POS"

March 9, 2021

5.0

I have been using them for 20 years for a reason.

Pros

The hardware is very easy to install. All of the programs are preinstalled. I ran my own communication cable and with Micro Works you just plug and play. The instructions and diagrams are easy to follow. The software is very stable and doesn't crash. I almost think support is a waste of money because I have so few problems. Their support team are very pleasent to talk to and know what they are doing.

Cons

I have no problems with the hardware or the software.

Reason for choosing Microworks Prism POS

It was reasonably priced and had the features we were looking for.

Pros

The mapping for delivery area needs to be more accurate.

### "Best Value POS System"

January 20, 2021

4.0

Pros

Fairly user friendly, lots of customization with how orders are entered, and the online prism reporting works wonderfully for our head office. Tech support & the menus team are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and always a big help.

Cons

The inventory system does not meet our needs. Online ordering could be more user-friendly.

### "Microworks Prism POS works for us."

January 19, 2021

5.0

We have found that we are capturing a lot of add on charges, such as extra sides, etc. We also have fewer mistakes on the orders due to poor handwriting.

Pros

We have found this software easy to use by our staff.

Cons

We found the Customer Account feature to be a little limited in that it is not exportable to an accounting software program such as Quick-books.
