## Reviews

### "Easy to use and great user interface" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *1 July 2019* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best thing about this software is its easy use of use
> 
> **Cons**: I really like the inventory management system, which worked well for managing bar inventory

-----

### "Revel Was a Great Decision" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *30 June 2023* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We love the ease of use for both our patients and staff. Revel is designed to be very user friendly and efficient.
> 
> **Cons**: The reboot time it takes when you reset the system.
> 
> The customer service is what really sold Revel to us. We had engaging team members throughout the entire process that helped us implement and understand our new POS and inventory management system. So far, we are very happy with Revel and the support we receive from them.

### "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.

### "12 mos w/o Online Store, Still Billing Me over $500 Per Month\!" — 1.0/5

> **Chase** | *5 February 2024* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing\!
> 
> **Cons**: Everything\! Over a year ago we spent 10+ hours on phone on initial set up, over 100 hours on customer service, got bumped between V1 of their online ordering system and V2, neither of which have a complete set of features allowing for pick up and shipping.  That was falsely sold and they are in breach of contract unable to fulfill the terms.  The matter is being transferred to our attorney for resolution, yet another additional cost we have been burdened with by this terrible company.  Someone must be getting paid for them to grow so fast, sad they can't service their customers effectively, fulfill on contract terms, and follow with predatory billing.  They have nearly put our small business out of business and are still taking the money out of our bank account despite blocking charges.
> 
> Predatory, negligent, damaging.  Never use this company, they outsource everything.  You get a different person who has never seen your account every time.  Hours of useless service calls and no one has the same story. We had to find out through months of labor that they cannot do what we signed the contract for due to skimp-flating their software and removing features with V2 Online Ordering.
