### 1/5 — Pilot app is garbage

*2020-02-28*

Have been using LAVU for 7 years.  This is a useless piece of garbage that doesn’t show correct data.  Don’t waste your time, just link to the backend.

### 2/5 — I like the app but not logging in.

*2019-10-01*

It takes just as much time as simply going to the back office. The info is useful and relevant but just not practical if it isn’t any different than using the online tools.

### 1/5 — Lavu Pilot original was better

*2019-03-04*

Yes Pilot 2.0 has added some features but it took away necessary viewing abilities. I can no longer look at a given work day it blocks everything into 24hr increments. So if business runs past midnight it pushes data into next business day instead of combining it with that days business figures. So Friday nights numbers from midnight to 2am roll into Saturday and Saturday into Sunday and so on. Showing what could have been a busy night inflating gross sales of what could be a slow day. To avoid you need to run sales by the hour and do some adding and subtracting but at that point why not just open the admin dashboard. Killed the ease it was supposed to provide. Loved the original Pilot but no longer works with newest iPhone or IOS.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2018-09-09*

Read the reviews and take note that Lavu is doing nothing about the repeated issues. Big red flag. Should never have switched from square. App won’t refresh up-to-sales. You have to log out and back in to get new sales numbers. Completely worthless and embarrassing.

### 3/5 — Owner

*2018-08-19*

It is useful overall, but needs some improvements.  

1.  Option to stay logged on
2.  Option to see open order sales.

### 5/5 — Big help.

*2018-07-26*

I have been using the pilot app since it was originally release. I love that I can remotely view my restaurant while on the go. The newest version has even more features and is very easy to navigate and understand. I wish I had 4 hands so I could give it 4 thumbs up.

### 5/5 — Real time labor = Real value

*2018-06-30*

Lavu continues to provide my business value. With the pilot app I’m able to see all the key metrics that matter to my business. My favorite part is the real time labor reporting that allows me to see who is clocked in and what my Sales to labor expense ratio. 

Thank you Lavu.

### 1/5 — Limited limited info

*2018-06-01*

Lavu pilot will only give you your sales and labor on Pilot. You have to do some tedious work in the back office to see important factors not shown on Pilot such as tips and time range options to view sales at a certain time period. It also only gives you your top ten sellers for the date selected and does not give your daily breakdown of items sold.

### 1/5 — Login

*2018-02-14*

Really need to enter login and password every time? That’s silly.

**Developer response:** Hi. Thank you for your feedback on the Pilot App. The login feature is for security purposes, although we definitely hear your point and will pass it along to our Development Team. If there is anything you need help with don't hesitate to call our 24/7 Customer Support Team at 1-855-767-5288.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work for custom date range

*2018-02-03*

App needs to be fixed so you can save the login. Also choosing. Custom date range does not work or load.

**Developer response:** Hi. Thank you for your feedback on the Pilot App. The login does not save for security reasons, but I encourage you to call our 24/7 Customer Support Team at 855-767-5288 for help resolving the custom date range issue. We'll do everything we can to help find a fix.
