Responsive customer support through phone and email. > > **Cons**: All the monthly SAS fees can really pile up for larger accounts like myself. Enterprise level back end reporting could be better. ----- ### "Great product if you have the time to put into it." — 4.0/5 > **SCOTT** | *3 January 2019* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We like how you can really tailor it to your business. We run a bar and bottle shop, and can sell by using an ingredient or a product. The reporting is pretty extensive. The timekeeping and scheduling keep everything in one place. > > **Cons**: The backend takes a bit of a learning curve. It will take some time to learn how to operate and get used to he format. ----- ### "Revel is not the POS you are looking for." — 1.0/5 > **Matt** | *25 April 2025* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The use of iPads for the KDS system was very nice and easy to implement. The depths of customization you could do with your menu was great. You can have modifiers for modifiers. Once you get the hang of it, their menu system is probably the best. > > **Cons**: To list a few; Their "Offline Mode" never worked for us and if we had no internet, that meant we were 100% down. We could never run credit cards when we had no internet. Their tiered levels of their features is a joke. You want delivery. That's extra. Oh you want delivery PLUS that has all the features that should be in the regular delivery but they are not? That's extra. They do this for many things. The worst one is charging $9.99 to use their app on your phone. So if you want to check your sales on the go, pay up. They started off great, but as time went on it just got worse. The iPads don't last also. Expect to replace the iPads about every 2 years. iPads were not meant to be left on as much as they are with revel. I had 3 extra iPads on hand just so we weren't ever caught without a KDS or POS screen. I always felt since I was one location, they didn't care about me much. If I left them, they wouldn't care. I would raise concerns and issues and they would always respond in standard automated emails. All in all, just a terrible experience. > > Terrible. I would not recommend Revel to any restaurant owner. Maybe they give big discounts for multiple locations, but they sure don't for single locations. The customer service was terrible. The technical customer support was terrible. There's way too many better options out there to actually consider Revel. ----- ### "Pay Monthly to Access your Sales Data????" — 2.0/5 > **Seth** | *13 June 2024* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: It functions as a POS system. Nothing stuck out as especially good. > > **Cons**: The UX for making your menu is much much less friendly than other products on the market. Every single improvement that Revel makes requires an extra monthly subscription to access it. Don't expect any free upgrades. And now a paid subscription to access data that is more than 12 months old??? Are you kidding me? How about closing out your books at the end of the year, or insurance audits? This is ridiculous. > > Fair to poor. It doesn't do anything better than other systems that we've used in the past. I hate how every feature is a required monthly subscription. What happened to developers making a great product and working on improvements to roll out? ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/24335/revel?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/24335/revel) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
