User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems It is very well suited for a one or two location operation. When we got up into the 7 venues and the high volume of sales/traffic, is where things started to get a little jumbled up. The scanning functions and UPC generation is very effective when dealing with keeping track of 7 locations. The "open check" feature is a BIG problem for us, as orders would be made, but the system allowed you to go onto the next order without collecting payment for the previous Incentivized NAKIA EPLEY Lead FOH Read full review
Pros	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems Revel Systems is a very simple POS to operate for our employees They are constantly improving and updating Revel has integrated with COMO Reporting is very straight forward and easy to use Incentivized JI Jean Iennaco Director of Operations Read full review
Cons	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems We experienced multiple system failures when first implementing Revel. Occasionally we would have separate orders/tables merge or disappear entirely, which we could not attribute to user error. Some reporting limitations that our finance department needed Incentivized Leslie MacLean Facilities Coordinator Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems We have put an incredible amount of time into the set up, organization and clean up of this product. Now that it is working and flowing a little better, it would be inconvenient and potentially a bad move if we were to go anywhere else now. Incentivized NAKIA EPLEY Lead FOH Read full review
Usability	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems It can be a bit difficult at the beginning but gets easier as long as you are taking advantage of Revel University, Help, and Customer Service when you get stuck Incentivized NAKIA EPLEY Lead FOH Read full review
Support Rating	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems We got excellent support from Revel whenever we needed it.

Alternatives Considered	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems Square - Used Square with our entire menu for over 3 months. Doesn't handle food applications well. Shopkeep - While promising, doesn't offer a delivery management in any way, and online ordering is handled through third-party which is more expensive and more time-consuming to manage.

Return on Investment	ARBA Retail Systems No answers on this topic	Revel Systems Huge ROI, we took time to implement and customize our interface and it now saves us loads of time. We have almost endless data to look back on and help make business decisions It's easy to train, which reduces labor. Incentivized Philip Gomez President/Owner Read full review
