My overall experience has bene good with Cake POS because it eases my business.

Pros

For a non-tech user, it is a cakewalk for it is easy to install. No high-end tech-knowledge is required.

Cons

One thing that I would like to highlight is its customer service which sometimes seems missing.

CAKE POS - a good choice

Very positive. The customer representatives you get when help is needed are excellent and patient. All I've spoken with have restaurant experience and understand the industry to provide excellent advice, encouragement, and support. Today I spoke with Robert. He was able to help me solve a problem that was not technical in nature, but drew on his expertise in the business and his knowledge of food costs.

Pros

The easy of function for my servers and bartenders.

Cons

Some difficulty with our third POS that we move from the outdoor cantina to our inside space for colder months. Hard to keep one monitor as primary and two as client. Often, 2 are listed as the main POS and one client causing the order pads to initialized over and over.

Terrible, have had to call several times for them to complete simple task and still not done after a week.

Pros

Employees have stated that the system is user friendly.

However if you do have any issues customer support is a nightmare !

Cons

Customer service is the absolute worst !
I’ve been trying to change ownership for over a week and still haven’t succeeded.
