Likelihood to Recommend	Shift4 No answers on this topic	PAR Technology Corporation (ParTech) Brink just needs to continue to develop its technology for the every-changing industry. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Pros	Shift4 No answers on this topic	PAR Technology Corporation (ParTech) Brink has a simple interface for the team to use in their day to day. Brink is mostly simple to reconfigure to our needs in the field. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Cons	Shift4 No answers on this topic	PAR Technology Corporation (ParTech) Brink could update its hardware to the sign of the times with guest interactive POS. Appears clunky at times with its processes and steps. Brink needs to be able to edit it reporting features to get the desired result for time clock compliance especially in CA with Meal Break Laws. Brink needs to integrate its time clock process in CA, for a team member to accept or decline time clock edits and to waive a mandatory break. Brink needs better integration with KDS systems to do exactly what we need it to do as our business model develops into the future. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Support Rating	Shift4 No answers on this topic	PAR Technology Corporation (ParTech) I believe Brink has been very responsive to our needs and requests Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Shift4 No answers on this topic	PAR Technology Corporation (ParTech) I inherited Brink and it works for us for now. But as we grow in CA and other markets, Brink maybe becomes a challenge with time record compliance and the ability to perform up to expectations with KDS systems.

Return on Investment	Shift4 No answers on this topic	PAR Technology Corporation (ParTech) Positive impact on its simplicity with our growth and ability to teach and transform our business. Negative impact on the business with time clock compliance in CA. We need more functionality for the Team Member experience in time clock management. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
