	Lightspeed Restaurant
Considered Both Products	Lightspeed ANISUL ISLAM VHASHA Business Owner in Corporate at Network Zone (Telecommunications, 1-10 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant I have already used two Restaurant POS software but Lightspeed helps me a lot to grow my business. I face some problems when using this but day by day they are constantly developing their services. Their customer support is amazing. If we face any problem the team responds … Incentivized Helpful? Melissa Meece Owner / GM at Firefly Restaurant (Restaurants, 11-50 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve [POS (formerly Breadcrumb)] offers more functionality than Square, which is the only other restaurant POS I've used. Upserve has intuitive employee time tracking, and helpful labor and sales reporting features. I know my data guy would prefer more detailed data … Incentivized Helpful? Blake Chaney Front of House Manager in Customer Service at Jack Brown’s Beer and Burger Joint (Food & Beverages, 201-500 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Lavu is the worst POS system I have ever encountered. It was the most frustrating part of everyone’s shift. They were never available for customer service, Upserve is. Their system would shut down across regions, Upserve does not. Upserve (at the time Breadcrumb) was highly … Incentivized Helpful? Katie Kleyla Marketing & Events Director in Marketing at Statesman Tavern (Food & Beverages, 1-10 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant POS systems are always evolving. Breadcrumb continues to stay on top of the game. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Lightspeed Restaurant We chose Upserve POS for the following reasons: Easy to find items on the menu by using the search bar. Ability to modify menu, devices, etc. remotely. Incentivized Helpful? Chris Kim Director Of Information Systems & Financial Analysis in Information Technology at The Hwood Group (Hospitality, 501-1000 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is on the way to be able to do everything that ALOHA can do. However, the future is with Upserve. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is smaller, quicker, portable and more user friendly. Incentivized Helpful? Danielle Lawson Owner in Corporate at Bones Bakery (Food & Beverages, 1-10 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is the most superior POS! Incentivized Helpful? Jamie Cunningham Director of Hospitality in Corporate at Stay Golden (Restaurants, 51-200 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve rises above all of it's competition. It's just as robust as a legacy brand like Micros or Restaurant Manager, and simultaneously agile and intuitive like square. It's a perfect balance for modern restaurants. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is pretty well organized and not hard to adjust to at all. Incentivized Helpful? Ulysses Acevedo General Manacer in Corporate at Biggs Mansion (Retail, 1-10 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is better because of its support team that helps guide you through the implementation process. Upserve is great at managing costs, employee actions, and retail processes. Incentivized Helpful? Elizabeth McCarty Taproom Manager at Crosstown Brewing Company (Food & Beverages, 11-50 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant I haven't used any other products. Incentivized Helpful? Alex Mills Sous Chef at Stay Golden (Hospitality, 51-200 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve has been the best POS system that we have used to date. Incentivized Helpful? Robbie Melton General Manager in Customer Service at Stay Golden (Restaurants, 51-200 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is more robust than both of these products. Northstar simply isn't functional, so most anything could outperform it. I would choose Upserve over either of the above products. Incentivized Helpful? Devon Moore Manager at Taste of Thai Express, Inc. (Restaurants, 11-50 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Upserve is the best that I have used personally. Incentivized Helpful? Marty Enslein Partner/Owner at The Farmhouse KC (Restaurants, 51-200 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant We used Digital Dinning and this Upserve blows them away! Incentivized Helpful? Jeremy M. Goldstein Owner in Corporate at North American Sake Brewery (Food & Beverages, 11-50 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant I have not used other products or services. They are the best.

Verified User Chose Lightspeed Restaurant I have not compared any other POS systems. Incentivized Helpful? John Bonica owner/chef at Tappi (Restaurants, 11-50 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Breadcrumb is the only POS system I've used. Incentivized Helpful? Leandro Utrera de Paula Financial Analyst in Corporate at Rodizio Grill (Food & Beverages, 201-500 employees) Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Micros - Very expensive for the initial setup and support afterward, but offers all the features needed for a complex restaurant. Toast - Pretty similar to Breadcrumb, but lacks a development team. Focus - Similar to Micros, but less expensive for the support. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Lightspeed Restaurant Now as a Toast user, it makes Breadcrumb look like an ancient technology. Toast is way more user friendly and more suitable for a higher volume restaurant. Toast has a more thorough reporting system than Breadcrumb. The display is a lot more vibrant through Toast and people get … Incentivized Helpful?
