- Users say that Toast's implementation process is notably quick and intuitive, making it easier for businesses to get started. Recent feedback highlights the platform's offline mode, ensuring that operations can continue smoothly even during network outages.
- Reviewers mention that while SkyTab is praised for its user-friendly interface and easy installation, it falls short in overall performance metrics. Users appreciate its affordability but note that it lacks some advanced features that Toast offers, such as comprehensive reporting and analytics capabilities.
- According to verified reviews, Toast provides robust support for menu building and inventory management, with users noting that it effectively helps track which menu items are performing well.
