Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Just Eat
- Delivery speed and reliability on marketplace-only listings depend on the individual restaurant's own drivers, which is far less consistent than a platform-run logistics network.
- The Grubhub acquisition was written down by billions of dollars within two years, a sign the US delivery market did not work economically for the company even at scale.
- The parent company was taken private by Prosus in 2025, so a former public company with disclosed results is now reporting to a single owner instead.
- Fee structures differ by country and even by restaurant within a country, making the total cost of an order harder to predict than a flat platform fee.
- Brand fragmentation across Just Eat, Lieferando and Thuisbezorgd means account, loyalty points and order history do not necessarily carry over if you move between the markets that use different local names.
Wisely
- Wisely is now part of Olo, per the vendor: "Wisely is now part of Olo", and its pricing page redirects to Olo sales contact form rather than showing prices
