Lightspeed Restaurant vs. OMS Office Master System

Upserve POS is well suited for any restaurant, bar, or coffee shop. We've utilized this system for full service, quick service, and bar service and it's been perfect for all of it. I can't think of food or beverage service application that Upserve is not well suited to handle

Well OMS can be perfect for medium and large organization,project management, dealing with large volume of documents.The system would be less effective where its small business and simple needs, limited budget, and where there is resistance to adopt new technologies .

• I love all the backend reporting features of Upserve. It's really robust and helps me manage our restaurant by staying in touch with labor, best selling items, etc.
• The customer service is great. I had a question and used their chat feature and my question was answered within 5 minutes.
• I'd highly recommend this product.

• Ih helps in inventory management, thus providing detailed updates on how much stock in availabe and at any moment can retrieve the detailed reports.
• It helps to schedule daily meeting and appointments with clients
• Save and retrieve real time orders information.

• There are a few minor bugs in the reporting that should be fixed.
• Check out reports could improve by showing each transaction detail.
• There is not currently a way to check via the reports how many online orders come through since they are processed as a credit card/cash.

• OMS software been around for a long time and they have thoughtfully added features for wholesale businesses. However, the software is in need of an update that makes the software easier to use and more modern.
• The user flow could be improved and the layout could be more intuitive. It is inconvenient to change between modules. It takes time for team members to become familiar with the software.
• We appreciate the ability to import/export data, however we wish that this feature was easier to use for the team. Currently only a few members with technology experience are able to use the feature.

Upserve is very intuitive. It utilizes a tab system along the left side of the screen for easy access to menu categories. After choosing the tab you want to view (i.e. Food), all the food items and/or sub categories show up instantly on the screen. once your items are chosen, you are a card swipe away from starting the payment process. Very easy. That said, there are a few minor issues with usability. For example, splitting checks is really quite difficult. You have to create new checks one at a time, then have to go searching for the checks to ring guests up. Really not intuitive on this front. Thankfully, it's not incredibly inhibitive

Seriously, if I could give a 12 rating I would. Upserve support is 24/7 and completely free. No extra fees on evenings or weekends and they are fast. You can actually start a chat support straight from your ipad screen. 90% of our support issues have been solved in just a few minutes from the chat screen. That said, I prefer the phone. Calling into Upserve support is just as easy and everyone is always friendly and fast

We highly recommend OMS because of their customer support. When evaluating their software, we had a sales associate and a programmer walk us through the software and answer questions. They allowed us to demo the software at our offices. During onboarding, we received live training form a knowledgeable team member. We were happy that phone calls were always answered quickly. In fact, they reached out to us multiple times to make sure that we were set up and happy.

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 reporting abilities (for instance, you can't pull reports that show modifiers - so when we have Happy Hour and want to track how happy hour modifiers are doing compared to normal price, we have to do this manually wtf?). But overall Upserve is better than the other POS systems I've tried.

In our search for inventory management software, we read reviews online and set up demos with many companies. We were open to trying retail focused software liked Vend because they were modern and cloud based. TradeGecko was a viable option, however lacked all the features we needed for our unique wholesale business. We migrated to Cin7 for 2 years but were unhappy with their server down time, their customer support and the subscription fee change. Ultimately we came across OMS because other people in our industry recommended OMS and found that OMS addressed our wholesale businesses needs.

• Bestsellers and slower items rise to the top in reporting features, making analysis quicker.
• Dramatically reduced server error
• Posed a challenge to continue face-to-face contact between servers and cooks; the POS tends to end conversations about special orders, special customer requests or restrictions, and generally conveys the nuances that contribute to excellent service. So we have to make a conscious effort to continue talking to each other.

• OMS reduced invoicing errors by allowing us to sell based on wholesale units, like cases or pallets.
• We previously used cloud based software where we experienced downtime and could not create invoices. We do not experience any down time with OMS.
• OMS is purchased as a lump sump 1 time payment, so we are not surprised by any pricing changes. However we incurred the cost of setting up a server and backing up the data.
