Appetize makes front of house exchanges more instinctive through fixed, self-serve and handheld structure factors, while giving hearty kitchen and administrative center devices and is trusted by the absolute biggest and most elevated volume organizations on the planet

Inventory Management, Point of Sale, Reporting/Analytics, Order Management, Multi-Location, Sales Reports, Discount Management etc, these are major features which makes this software even more valuable and helpful.

Trial plans are not available. They don't have any supportable, Android and IOS platform application and these days phones are much usable product than Desktops and Laptops.

Overall, we truly enjoy working with Appetize and we love the support teams/people that we have had on site during our events. They are knowledgeable and willing to do anything to help us. The POS registers are functional and for the most part, easy to use, which we like.

We love the fact that the front end of the software is so user friendly and easy for our vendors to use. It is straightforward, simple, and clean. Makes training new vendors pretty painless.

I would say the thing we like least is that some of the back end reporting isn't always exactly what we are looking for. We have very specific reporting needs, because of the nature of our event, and sometimes we struggle a bit with that. The support team is great though, and have worked with us on trying to customize or build reports that fit our needs. Is a long process, because we do things a little funky at our venue, but they are willing to listen to our needs and try to find solutions that will work for us.

This is causing problems, not solving them. This system has turned a fun job into a nightmare of stress and has cost several of us money. These guys seriously have no idea how much suffering they have caused us. we used to enjoy this job and now we dread coming to work. We have had servers crying with frustration. IT'S NOT ABOUT ADJUSTING TO A NEW SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM IS THE PROBLEM. We have a 7 year veteran employee and others who are seriously considering quitting over this POS. I know a lot of people in the biz, and I will actively make sure no one I know gets appetize. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Nothing. Literally nothing. Nothing. Nothing.

Instead of making my job easier, the system is an encumbrance, making my job harder, slowing me down, which costs me money. it lacks the speed and functionality of our previous system, versitouch, that ran on windows 97. Whoever designed it, has ckearly never worked in this industry. Despite their claims, there is no way to do basic restaurant functions like splitting checks, transferring checks or putting a limited amount on a food item so the servers don't over sell beyond what you have in supply. What I could do with one step on our previous system now requires 3 steps and two different drop down menus- and that's just to open the cash drawer! The screens freeze too often, and there are a LOT of glitches, like one where if the date is wrong it won't print checks sent to kitchen or bar so servers were writing hand written tickets like it was 1985. We have been calling support constantly, but have had little in the way of results and many of the issues are faults of the system design itself and so can't really be "fixed" unless they redesign the software.

Overall, Appetize is a great POS system that gets you a lot of bang for your buck. With its ease of deployment, it enables customers to professionalize previously outdated cash registers. As a newer option in POS world, it doesn't yet provide all the bells and whistles that the most complicated operations might require, but they have made impressive strides already (with big things in the works already) and can handle most food and beverage POS needs for less initial investment of time and money.

Appetize is way easier to setup than similar POS systems. The software is intuitive and quick to master and the hardware options make planning large deployments much easier.

Because Appetize software runs on lots of different hardware platforms customers often use the most cost effective solutions rather than the hardware they actually need. If you buy the cheapest hardware that Appetize will run on, it may have issues. If you do buy the more expensive hardware, you instead have to worry about securing that hardware itself. IPads run Appetize really well, but you cannot always just hand them out like candy to seasonal staff.

Our salesman was outstanding. As often happens, once the technical team gets involved the salesman's promises are not quite as expected. Overall it is a very good product, but the back end reporting really needs attention. When you hear the support staff say 'I have been asking for that to get corrected for a few years', that is not a good indicator of a company's product support. I believe because Appetize grew so fast, they put all their efforts into R&D (and making the sale), and too little focus on supporting the product and fixing known issues. On-site support is so expensive, but they are outstanding.

Appetize is a very user-friendly product, making it easy to train employees. The option to add photo of items makes it even easier for for those operating the equipment.

Reports, they are inconsistent and not all are accurate. Takes so long to get a report changed or corrected. Absolutely the number one complaint. Also the cost of proprietary equipment is just too high.

Overall, Appetize is an extraordinary POS framework that gets you a ton of value for your money. No sweat of organization, it empowers clients to professionalize beforehand obsolete sales registers. As a fresher alternative in the POS world, it doesn't yet give every one of the extravagant accessories that the most convoluted activities may require, yet they have taken great steps as of now (with enormous things underway as of now) and can deal with most food and drink POS needs for less beginning speculation of time and cash.

"Set-up: Printer link is difficult to append/disconnect. Programming can be delayed upon establishment." "I think Credit Card administrations could be more steady. I have seen numerous exchanges go through just to be declined upon settlement " "It freezes and frequently reboots itself without being provoked."

User friendly. User can self adjust menu items on their screen to their own preference and/or ease.

Set-up: Printer cable is hard to attach/detach. Software can be slow upon installation.

While supporting the software I deal mostly with user questions due to missing training. During live, I have had to deal with terminals going off line and, credit card reading errors. After live I have found a few transactions that were declined but the system has allowed the sale to go through.

The software is quite easy to pick up and, easy to train. It works very well in a high volume stadium setting

I think Credit Card services could be more consistent. I have seen many transactions go through only to be declined upon settlement

Great company to partner with - will work on integrating and partnering much easier than Oracle or NCR.

Ease of installation, design, and ease of use.

Does not adapt well in a table-service setting.

The people at Appetize are really great to work with and have a lot of experience in our industry. The software is well suited for concessions and in seat service. Overall it's a good system.

It is easy to use for most front end users

Some lack of full service bar and restaurant features.

Appetize is a fun company to work for. The software is generally easy to use. I’ve never ran into an issue that didn’t have a reasonable/temporary work around. It seems that with every new version that is released a problem is solved but a new problem is created. From what I can tell they have a team that isn’t always on the same page but they care about their clients and creating a positive experience for the fans/customers. I personally have been treated well and can say I’ve enjoyed my overall experience with Appetize.

User experience is smooth. Generally easy to set up. GUI is aesthetically pleasing. Deploys and scales well.

There are issues with third party interfaces (gift cards, loaded value, student dining, etc). Restaurant/table service mode is sub standard mostly due to lack of check sync. I’ve heard from numerous Appetize associates that the reporting cannot be trusted. There are numerous issues with the KDS not limited to the device’s network card dropping its IP address when the printer runs out of paper.

Stable environment and just works. Easy to implement and train staff that are constantly turning over. Less headaches than pervious POS solutions, I don't even know the Appetize support phone number because I really haven't had to use it!

Ease of use Simple to use, training part time staff Faster transaction times Great hardware solutions Solves all my problems!

I couldn't move to this product sooner!

Great product great people

Ease in implementation and Great communication with support.

nothing really, navigating back office can get tedious

It is a fantastic piece of software, and the hardware is easy to install and implement. The account managers are passionate and hardworking. The channels of communication are clear and helpful.

It's intuitive, easy to navigate, and it is clear that the Appetize team has a sharp eye for user experience and design.

It freezes and often reboots itself without being prompted.

did the job it was asked to do

very easy to use and quick to learn. Implementd easily

Had no issue with product. It was easy to set up

Easily demo with multiple devices at once to see multiple perspectives.

I don't like that when using a computer to run a demo that the functionality of using the mouse to scroll on phone or tablet can get a little finicky. Have to have everything set the way I want to prior to demoing so the client doesn't see the issues with appetize as an issue with our company's product while demoing.
