Value > Price

I’m amazed at the quality of all of squares new products. I think this KDS is a year old and for the price you cannot beat it!

Response from developer

Glad you’re enjoying the app - if you need help with something, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly (squ.re/contactsqsupport). We look forward to hearing further from you!

Not ready for my business

Gave it a try, but until I can designate which kind of ticket groups - not category - I want to show on the display, this is useless for my fast casual restaurant. For instance, I only want open tickets orders and online orders to show up when placed. Not every single ticket sale that’s rung up by my cashiers. It’s also a bit messy when a ticket is edited.

Response from developer

We always aim to deliver a great experience, and we are gutted when we don’t meet expectations. Thanks for taking the time to bring this to our attention. We will use the feedback to make us better.

No way to write on/alter tickets at all. Just stick to paper.

After a ticket is rung in, there is literally no option but to complete the ticket, or bump it to the top. If a server rings something in wrong, there is no way to correct it. If I were to use this crappy useless app that was clearly designed by a team of apes that have never seen the back of a kitchen, I’d have to keep a stack of sticky notes next to me anyway for audibles. Please fix this screwed to death pile of burning feces you call an “expeditor” before I switch to Clover. Thanks.

Edit: Also, why can you not combine tickets? If a server rings in a ticket but forgets one item and then rings it in right after, im stuck with two different tickets until they’re gone. With paper, I can just write the item on the original ticket instead of crowding my rail with seventy thousand “open food” tickets in between the ones I actually need to see. It’s very clear to me that this app has been designed to please owners, and has had absolutely no effort put into making it ACTUALLY USEFUL to the people who are forced to use it 12 hours out of the day. Seriously, your team has their heads up their rears if they think this app works ANYTHING like an expo rail. If you’re going to replace something with an app, make sure the app is actually a better alternative! How bad do you have to mess up that your digital app on an iPad is somehow more useless than literal freaking paper???
