Costs of using this POS is much cheaper than some companies in the market. Customer service in general is very caring and professional. The system is easy to operate with. The online gift cards purchase isn’t user friendly, called service team several times, not so much improvement has been made. Hopefully in the future they may solve the problem.

Did a lot of research on different POS before deciding on this one for 3 restaurants. Very happy with our decision. It has all of the modern equipment and convenience features we wanted at a better price point than most others out there. The 3 restaurants are all different so it’s nice to be able customize the set up to fit each one’s unique needs. Very user friendly interface on POS, handhelds, and back office log in. All in all a really great value!

Sales rep Max worked with us on selling and installing a brand new Harbortouch POS. He was helpful every step of the way. He knows the product and he adjusted the software to work for our restaurant. The system is pretty easy to use. Remote tech support is available to troubleshoot when we need them. We're pretty satisfied. This was our very first POS. Our operations streamlined significantly.

We just got our pos system in our restaurant. Everything works good so far. We like accepting Apple Pay and Online Orders directly through the system. The POS itself is very easy to use. The guys at Harbortouch POS of Boston showed us great support since the installation. They have been in our restaurant for the whole week until our staff got used to everything. 5 stars deserved!
