User Testimonials
	Avero	Revel Systems
Likelihood to Recommend	If you have multiple locations, Avero can bring all your reporting into one place. Not sure it is worth it if you have one store and are not looking to get deep dive reporting. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	When we first started looking at Revel Systems they were more restaurant friendly but they have adapted very well to our retail needs. This system is very easy to operate and maintain, from the POS to the management console. We are able to monitor and run reports for all three of our locations from one URL. Incentivized JI Jean Iennaco Director of Operations Read full review
Pros	Tracks server check averages Daily log book Financial comparisons Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Flexibility - the amount of customization that we tailored to our restaurant is unmatched in the iPad market. Online integration - One interface to update all menus. Take Out/Delivery/Sit In - able to modify orders as necessary, simple function yet unbeatable. Incentivized Christopher Frary Owner Read full review
Cons	Once it is set up it's a bit cumbersome to tweak some of the canned reports. Change colors in theme. Secure log in during testing. Incentivized Peter Norton {LION} Chief Innovation Officer and Co-Founder Read full review	More flexible use of discounts and coupons More personal dedicated customer service which they went away from and went to general support even though we still pay for elevated customer service access. Updates do not always function properly Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	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
