Upserve Reviews FAQs

Generated using AI

Last updated: Nov 04, 2026

What is Upserve, and what problem is it built to solve?

Upserve is a restaurant management platform built to help restaurateurs streamline operations, improve customer experiences, and manage business performance. It brings together restaurant tools such as point of sale, analytics, inventory management, and employee scheduling.

What company sizes and industries is Upserve the best fit for?

Upserve is best represented among small businesses, particularly restaurant and hospitality operators. The reviewer-reported fit clusters around these segments:
  • Company size: Small businesses.
  • Industry: Restaurants, food and beverage, and hospitality.

How long does it take to implement Upserve across a team?

Implementation is most commonly reported as taking less than a month, with some teams getting live in under a day and others taking longer. The reported timing clusters are:
Time to go live Relative frequency
Less than 1 month Most common
Less than 1 day Also reported
1–3 months Less common

What customer support options does Upserve provide, and how do users find the overall support experience?

The support experience is uneven. Users describe helpful, responsive support, but others report trouble reaching the team, slow follow-up, or less satisfactory help after launch.

What is the experience like for teams switching to Upserve from another tool?

Switching to Upserve has meant moving from older, hardware-based or less restaurant-focused systems toward a cloud-based POS with more accessible reporting and simpler day-to-day use. Prior systems mentioned include legacy restaurant platforms such as Aloha and Micros, as well as other POS tools like Square, Lavu, Clover, and SpotOn. Users value the easier menu updates, staff training, and access to business data, though the transition has not always been smooth and reliability or support issues can complicate the change.

What features or capabilities could make Upserve even more useful?

The most useful improvements would make common restaurant workflows more flexible and reduce friction in setup and daily operations. Recurring requests include:
  • Make it easier to split individual items across checks and manage open tabs, seats, and table workflows.
  • Simplify menu setup and support more flexible scheduling for specials and price changes.
  • Expand reporting options, including more customizable reports and easier access to transaction details.
  • Improve offline reliability and connectivity so service is less disrupted when networks or systems have problems.
  • Add or strengthen integrations for areas such as accounting, payroll, and online ordering.

"Mostly positive"
4/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

User friendly interface. Responsive tech support when I've needed them. I like the timesheet tracking. I like that it's possible to track inventory cost, though I don't put that in accurately, since many of my items are "copied" from old items so this number is inaccurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

Recent server issue cost us $ (but they are very responsible and will compensate). The system sometimes is clunky. I wish I could remove old inventory easily. My staff and I get confused between the differences of "course" and "category" and "display groups". The system has been having some problems going into offline mode recently.

"Extremely intuitive iPad POS system that keeps open bar tabs!"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

Extremely intuitive and easy to use; easy to train new staff members on. Easy to open/close tabs. Easy to add new terminals. Offline mode has been vital to us when we have ISP issues -- everyone can keep moving and our business does not stop. Finding a nice looking interface with decent reporting that also kept open tabs (such a simple thing -- but many systems are retail focused) was actually pretty difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

Can't discount single items. When comping items, there is no tax accounted for, and no tip option. I wish there was an option for some kind of ongoing trade account that we could reconcile (tipped/taxed). When our iPads die, it's a pretty expensive fix. We jumped on early in Breadcrumb's infancy and now our iPad stands/swipers are no longer made, so we are forced to upgrade. You must subscribe to Upserve Pro for the EMV reader to work--so if that's an issue, it becomes expensive. So far it has not been a dealbreaker with us, but may become an issue in the future.

Response from Kaylen Little of Upserve

Hi Melissa,

Thank you so much for your feedback. We’re happy to hear you find Breadcrumb POS by Upserve easy to use and very intuitive. Offline mode was definitely one of our proudest features to roll out, and we’re glad it’s working well there.

Discounting single items is a feature request we’ve received from our clients quite a bit, and we’ll be happy to add this feature request again for you to add to its demand. There is actually a way to track taxes on comps by going to HQ > Settings > Tax and checking off the box to track taxes on comps. For an ongoing trade account, it’s possible to create something like that in “Other Tenders.”

We understand how frustrating it is as technology continues to grow at an extremely fast rate. We do have swipers still available on our online store for the earlier iPad models, and stands for those models could be found through 3rd party sources.

We strive to improve our product and services here at Upserve, and we greatly appreciate your honest feedback. We truly value your business as a customer of Breadcrumb POS by Upserve.

"Ups and Downs"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

Breadcrumb is very easy to use and easy to teach. It was a breeze for the staff to become accustomed and then efficient with it. All the setup is very easy as well. As for back end/reporting, it is adequate especially for the price and as compared to most other iPad based POS systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

Over the 2.5 years we've been using it, we've had a lot of ups and downs. Initially, we loved Breadcrumb, then there was a several month phase where it went offline way too often plus various other errors in reporting and sales numbers. In general, Support was awful--hard or impossible to get a hold of, and usually unhelpful. We almost switched to another POS. However, this past year things seem to be a bit better. Breadcrumb still could use some improvements in functionality, and Support still isn't perfect, but it appears that Upserve has improved things overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kaylen Little of Upserve

Thank you for your review and thank you for being a valued customer as we continue to grow and improve. We're pleased to hear that you have seen improvements after the acquisition of Breadcrumb and would like you to know that your dedicated account manager will be reaching out to hear about some of the feature improvements that you think would be beneficial to Breadcrumb. Thanks again for your review and we hope you have a great holiday season.

"Great for restaurants"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

Back office has a lot of great features and insights. Very easy to understand and hand over to accountant for end of year tax purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

Very tedious to modify menu items and prices and add on to the menu screen. Not convenient for fast service places and my version did not have the option to sign in the iPad itself; it had to print out a receipt and was inconvenient when guests just wanted coffee to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kaylen Little of Upserve

Hi Erica - Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoy our back office features and find them to be very insightful. Your account is a priority to us and your account manager is looking forward to a call to discuss areas of improvement when it comes to quick service establishments. Thanks again for your review and have a great holiday season.

"Affordable POS system"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

We like that the system is very easy to use. Very intuitive, and requires minimal training. Reports are great, although sometimes limited. We like the offline mode. This has improved a lot since the first time we used it. We like the Breadcrumb Live app, gives us info we need to run the restaurant easier. System reliability has been getting a lot better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

We don't like the poor customer service we get from the company. We have opened cases and we get no response at all, we have to call and check on the status of the cases and they haven't been reviewed by the account manager or support people. We don't like the lack of hardware options and functions. We need more swipers, more mounts, etc... that we can choose from. We need more flexible reporting. Updates with functionality changes take forever or never come. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kaylen Little of Upserve

Hi Alex - Thank you for your review. It’s customers like you that help us continue to grow and improve. We're glad you enjoy the usability and functionality of the Breadcrumb system and it's especially nice to hear that you can see us working hard to improve the product! We also understand our support team still has room for improvement – we're very aware of this and are making changes everyday to grow and appreciate your feedback.

If you ever have questions on how to utilize our product, please feel free to reach out directly to your dedicated account manager with any questions. The Account Success team is growing here as well, which should enable us to give better attention to our businesses. Thanks again for your review and feedback!

"Super simple/intuitive POS"
5/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

Breadcrumb is a great POS for any bar/restaurant. The ability to start tabs that hold credit card info is great, as many folks don't like giving their card! Having the option of visual and list open tabs is nice. I'm a fan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

I wish there was a "To-go tab classification option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Breadcrumb POS"
4/5
What do you like best about Upserve?

It is very user friendly. From management standpoint the reports are easy to read with all the info you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upserve?

You can't split items on a check. Making separate checks for a large party is a bit of a hassle. Too many steps to make this an easy fast transaction. The auto goat is before tax and you can't change it. Programming for the menus is a bit tedious with unnecessary info required. You have to go back to the main menu page every time you make one change. It should be easier to navigate through than it is. Also having an internet based system is at times unreliable, if the system goes down the POS is still supposed to run smoothly but it doesn't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kaylen Little of Upserve

Thank you for leaving us a review and we appreciate you taking the time to do so! We're glad you find the system user friendly but also hear some of the concerns you're having regarding splitting items, programming menus, etc. For any questions related to your menu or functionality of the system, I encourage you to reach out to your dedicated account manager who can help answer any questions you might have. We also have a 24/7/365 support line, who can help point you in the right direction. Lastly, we do have a mobile app that allows you to see what's going on in your restaurant even if you're not there! This is a feature of our Smart Management Assistant, which you can learn more about through your account manager. If you'd prefer, please feel free to respond to this message with your name and restaurant name, and I can find out who your account manager is. Thanks and we look forward to our continued partnership!
