Pros

“It appears when guests pay with "tap to pay" it tends to put a hold on the total amount, and then charges them that amount.”

Courtney T.

HR Manager

“I can click on numbers and it will expand to show where they came from.”

LINDA F.

Controller

“Handhelds device for contactless payment is the winner as customer don't have to head to cashier to make payment and can pay the meal from the comfort of the table.”

Carmen H.

Marketing Executive

Pros

“The user-friendly interface and automated confirmations also helped save time and increase operational efficiency.”

Louise C.

Marketing Director

“There are rarely any issues with the software and orders and table status are updates live across all devices, meaning that I can even see all the live tables from my phone when at home.”

Mark G.

Company Director

“The platform made reservation management more efficient and provided a convenient booking experience for guests.”

Louise C.

Marketing Director

Cons

“The company I work for uses Toast POS to charge guests to their room number; sometimes the systems don't communicate and tabs are left unpaid.”

Barrett D.

Night Auditor

“I would say the only thing about Toast that I don't like is their pricing for implementing integrations. Because even when the integration is necessary, myself or my consulting clients have a hard time justifying the additional spend over necessary expenses.”

Allie H.

Founder

“This process took more than two months and included email, telephone, and service tickets. When our payments to TOAST stopped due to this problem, we got more attention.”

Brian D.

Treasurer

Cons

“Sometimes you have to enter your credit card information for certain reservations and you are charged if you cancel.”

Sara R.

Attorney

“The pricing is very expensive compared to its competitors - which we understand due to all the usage you can get out of the software and it being well-known.”

Katherine J.

Director of Marketing and Events

“Annoying emails asking me to write reviews.”
