“Just on scale alone, we needed something more intuitive, more insightful. We also grew our staff and we grew our customer base. [We needed] an all encompassing machine and tool to capture the growth of our business operations.”

"I think our staff are used to touchscreens, which is another reason the Lightspeed Restaurant design is so user-friendly. Pretty much everyone who uses it thinks the design is really logical."

“It’s like a cash flow for investment.”

"The launch of Happy Knits’ online store using Lightspeed was probably our biggest victory."

“Vaping is a hobby for some people, even for people who use nicotine-free juices. It’s a real community and it feels great to be a part of it. Having Lightspeed helping us to manage our business is definitely part of the reason we’ve been able to expand like this.”

“Lightspeed offered more features than we needed initially – that said, I was awestruck with how easy it made it for me to process payments and sync accounting records.”

“In our store, my team and I pride ourselves on being able to address our repeat customers by first name.“

“Going to a Mac platform makes sense in this day and age, as most of our staff run a Mac at home or have an iPhone, so they understand and enjoy the Mac operating system.”

“We need the ability to turn the store around very quickly if business is slow. We use reports in Lightspeed to help us calculate profitability per square foot of space. We know when to heavily discount items that aren’t moving, and this system helps us identify these.”

“Ultimately, it’s an intuitive system that anyone can learn. As we grow, I’m confident that training our growing staff to use it will be a breeze. Even the way it looks makes working with it a pleasure – it’s designed in the way I’m used to reading technology.”

”We have a customer base that mostly realizes the value that a local store brings, and is not purely transactional – they value things beyond just price.”

“We chose Lightspeed because it’s an effective, inexpensive way to provide even better customer service.”

"In a world of independent hospitality, where we don’t have our own offices, it’s so important to be able to access data via mobile."

“Having the right technology in place drastically reduces human error and greatly improves guest satisfaction. You’re not writing things down. It’s at the click of a finger.”

“We were using another system before, and it felt like using a stone and chisel to write up a sale, compared to Lightspeed. Since I've been a full-time sales manager here for the past three and a half years, the single best decision we've made is going with Lightspeed.”
