    Platterz
    If you need to feed more than 5 people on a recurring basis I highly recommend Platterz. If you need to feed 50+ people I have no idea how you aren't already using Platterz. Colleagues at large companies are always complaining that their lunches are bland and repetitive, and Platterz solves that problem at scale. If you need help planning, their staff is friendly and can plan meals to fit your budget and dietary restrictions. We have been working with Platterz since we had only 10 employees and I am confident we will continue to use them well past 100 employees. Our lunches are fresh, hot, and delicious, and they make sure they fit our budget. Everything can be done online, or with the help of your concierge!

    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

    • 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

    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.

    We got excellent support from Revel whenever we needed it. I personally worked with several Revel client support reps, and they were all extremely dedicated and helpful in assisting with any problem we had.

    Prior to Platterz we were either ordering lunches directly from restaurants or using consumer-facing apps such as Skipthedishes and there is no comparison. Platterz and the restaurants they offer are tailored for company catering, and it shows. Meals are dependable and it's much faster than trying to use a consumer app or calling a restaurant yourself putting in an order for 30+ people.

    • 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.
