Great POS system, marginal support The system is top notch and really does just about everything a restaurant needs. The issues I have are the continuous updating and changing settings which make you relearn the app too frequently. My employees get frustrated because they become familiar with the very subtle uses of the program and then they go and change it, and not for the better. Also the tech support has seriously declined over the 8 years we've been with the company. It's almost impossible to get someone you can understand over the phone so I almost always use the online chat feature.

Toast is using my phone # for testing I keep getting text messages from Toast for phantom orders placed at a restaurant that is not in business/does not have a phone number. I called Toast, assuming my number was being used as a testing number to get them to stop sending me messages/using my phone number for testing but they were apparently unable to find anything out about the restaurant or their transactions being run at that restaurant. Please stop spamming my phone!

24/7 Customer Support us UNTRUE 24/7 Customer Support us UNTRUE! System glitch charging customers twice, leaving us to explain the mess. Other than being portable Toast is only slightly better than our old PC America. Try fighting for your clients when a chargeback is presented. Provided video proof of client eating/drinking, swiping card, and adding a tip, only to get a chargeback.

On boarding process Customer Service is amazing. They always try to help with any issue. Unfortunately, on boarding was very painful for us. We had menu review and suggested changes for two stores but they lost those suggestions when we opened one of the stores. Then menus looked different on both menus. We carried out those issues until now just because on boarding process was very bad.

Hard to be perfect POS systems were always behind in technology compared to the corporate world. Toast found the niche in a tough market and made the investment building great software and hardware for our restaurant. The only small limited downsides that we are effected by is they lock you in to their own merchant services. The credit card industry is not fair to small business but that was their early marketing strategy. I will give them 5 stars when they integrate a weather application. That's the most obvious and consistent common sense reason why we or any other restaurant will do more or less revenue is weather. Having reports and even forecast weather for labor would be great.
