Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Lunchbox
- The fee is charged per location per month regardless of how many direct orders you generate, so brands that do not fund marketing pay for a channel that stays quiet.
- Moving customers off marketplaces requires sustained discounting and advertising that the restaurant funds, and none of that cost appears in the software quote.
- The company has been through substantial restructuring since its peak funding, so integration maintenance and roadmap continuity are fair questions to put in writing before signing.
- Native app launches involve app store review, brand assets and a build fee, so time to first order is measured in weeks rather than days.
- The integration list is narrower than that of the large enterprise ordering vendors, and a group on an uncommon POS may find order injection limited or unsupported.
Rezku POS
- Platform exclusivity: only available on iPad, excluding Android, Windows, and other platforms limiting deployment flexibility
- Payment processing lock-in: requires use of Rezku Pay proprietary payment processing with no ability to negotiate rates or switch
- Hardware reliability issues: card readers have 30-day warranty with frequent connectivity issues and premature failures
- Limited integration options: the list of integrations is solid but shorter than competitors with less third-party support
- No free trial: requires sales team demos rather than offering self-service trial access
