Marketing Director

Our onboarding specialist [SENSITIVE CONTENT] did a great job and walked us through any difficulties as we learned and installed. Our Customer Success Manager [SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been awesome.

Owner

I love that I can customize the system as I want and edit very easy. I like that there are tons of options to create and easy to find.

Ease-of-use I find it very easy to train your employees on it everything is super simple and customer service is excellent.

That in it's self has saved us a ton of payroll we use to spend on training. From a ownership perspective, we have four locations and I'm able to track them from my central office, Wonderful.

I love having the itemized close cash receipt every day. I love all the reports that I get for tracking my business.

I love the reports I get when we close so that I can see immediately how we did without going directly into the system. It was worth the money spent.

They are number one at customer service which is very important. They are available for help 24-7 and that is needed.

Wife got cancer, covid hit hard and had to close for over a year. Tried to reconnect device but can't because of 3 missed payments prior to covid.

Overall, we love this product, especially the support we get from the friendly staff. Anytime we have an issues, we call and it gets fixed.

Project Manager

I have been co-piloting this app with several businesses for the last months and it is by far the mos intuitive and easy to use. It is perfect to run a mid business and keep it in control.

Owner/Executive Chef

We were able to activate and integrate it quickly and we love the reporting capabilities the system gives us.

Easy to use, back office short is great and helpful.

Sometimes it's hard to get support  on the phone when something does go wrong.

We feel very comfortable requesting new features and integrations based on our needs and we feel like they really listen to us and try to incorporate our ideas quickly and simply.

The cash drawer and the insert in it are not built for the type of abuse they can take in some operations. I wish there was an option to purchase extra drawer inserts.

Owner 

Easy to use, fair service price,  reliable company.

I have many different  POS Systems in the past and cake for sure was the easiest one to navigate. They have great customer service and they are always trying to hear your opinion about the system.

I can't put my finger on what changed, but i have trouble adding new products under existing categories. They come out as new buttons on the main screen.

General Manager

Probably the worst over customer experience I have had across any industry. And this is not after one bad experience, this is spanning 3+ years.

Managing Director

Insistence that the problem was Xero for over a week was frustrating until eventually a functioning link was established to the API (not a Xero problem). Then the problems really started.

Company Director

Great customer support, very easy to use brilliant for accountancy and amazing software.

Manager 

After being held to one time only only for this call price and grand promises of excellent customer service.

Partner

I have tried since December to get this account paused and stop being charged. I've been promised every single week since the first charge that they would "pause," and refund the charges.

I was warned by others and because of the price-point of their system I did not listen. Please don't make the same mistakes I've made.
