Ease of Use, But Want Advanced Features Overall, BentoBox is an easy way to maintain a website & online store. However, I wish the online store functions were a little more advanced so that various data can be tracked, information easily seen, as well as an easier shopping cart that can be integrated quickly and easily with 3rd party distributors. In other words, it may be a little TOO simple.

This has been a game changer for us as… This has been a game changer for us as well. We integrate GrubHub with our POS and are paying roughly 30% in commissions on most orders. With the launch of our virtual brand, we implemented Bento Box and it has saved us a lot of those commissions. The online ordering site built by bento is way better than our POS offers. Support from Bento has been fantastic. Bento is a little behind on the reporting aspect for their platform. They seem to be responsive in other areas of feedback so hopefully that will improve soon. I am very happy with it so far.

Corporate Policy? Corporate Policy? I tried to schedule a technical demo for myself since I handle the nuts and bolts of a restaurant's online presence and another user interface demo for my client who owns the restaurant. I was told that they have a 1-demo policy. I explained that my client is very busy (like filming a television show busy), but has entrusted me to work out the feasibility of migrating to a new online platform. They still said no. I then asked if I could get the salesperson's contact info to help schedule a joint demo. I was told they don't send out emails and that he would call me back in a week. Bentobox literally just lost an easy customer.

Theft of Funds. Taking money from you and knowing the store is closed. I placed an order online with bento box at 7:30 pm. I received confirmation that my order will be ready for pick up at 7:54. I received another text that my order is ready to be picked up. I get to the store, and the store is closed indefinitely. I called customer service and they said they couldn’t refund my money and that I had to wait until the store opened back up to deal with them. This is horrible customer service and theft of funds. They should be sued immediately for taking people’s money and refusing to have any accountability in their errors! DO NOT USE their service

They have friendly staff They have friendly staff. My biggest issue is the work. I paid a lot of money for them to build me a website. They built a website with a catering store because they felt this would be best for my specific needs. I didn't understand this since I am an online Grocery store, they gave me a catering menu that a restaurant would use. I informed them I did not like the template they used because it did not really work for me. The staff was unable to make any real changes. So after paying all this money I have to use a website and hopes it works. The template they used asked for a delivery address and I do not make deliveries. The only thing they were able to do was add a note stating that there are no deliveries. HOW CONFUSING IS THAT. The design of the website is simple (which is what I needed) but it's so simple I could have done it myself instead of paying the prices I currently pay monthly. I have another business which I created the website myself and I believe it looks more professional than the one Bento Box built. They also have no application you can use, no way of exporting item list, basic functions that should be available are not. I currently still have BentoBox since this is a new business and funds are low, but once I am able to have my website recreated with a different company I will if nothing changes.
