Don’t do business with this company as… Don’t do business with this company as there is really no worthwhile value offered for the high dollars spent monthly. They make a website for ur business but u don’t own or control it...in fact they use that against u..they charge $199/month or 119/month for hosting which is basically $25 or so everywhere else...waste of money, maybe was good when world was not that internet savvy like today...all ur money basically provides employment to their people....u really insulting your intelligence if u choose to work with them...bet this company is not gonna be around too long until they make dramatic changes....feel bad for folks who invested millions in this half baked idea of a company....

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.

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.

Web site does not display restaurant menu pictures properly on smartphone screens For the most part the company has been good and they work hard to add value, but at over $3000 a year, you would expect the restaurant menu item pictures show up correctly on cell phones, which is the device the majority of people use to order takeout. While my menu items photos display correctly on a PC, they display a tiny band on a phone screen, basically not showing what the food looks like at all. I was wondering why my bentobox sales are so dismal. Now I now. Customers can't see the pictures on their phones. I have reached out to support, which says they have their limitation on the template used for displaying web sites. I reached out to Bentobox Cofounder who said would look into it, but never responded back. The reason for my poor rating for the company is if a web site that is supposed to display a restaurant menu properly with the photos, cannot do that, then it is not useful. If my customers can't tell what a dish would look like on their cell phones, then the menu might as well not have any pictures at all, and no matter how much marketing effort Bentobox puts into value-added other stuff, the main premise is broken and as a result Bentobox has failed me.

They let you order from closed restaurants, and your first clue is a 3 hour pickup on a 30-40 minute order I ordered via bentobox with availability for a pickup order within 30-40 minutes. Then the email showed up and said the food would be ready in three and a half HOURS. There's no way to cancel the order. The restaurant won't pickup the phone. So we drive there, hoping we can show the receipt and even if we have to wait, we can still get food, but the place is closed, during their marked business hours. They charged my card immediately, but there's no food. Long story short, double check the place you're ordering from is actually open before clicking that button.
