Pros
The simplicity of digital solutions, including statistics and online ordering
That Ancon really does work proactively and is committed to development.
Very well structured, dynamic and competent system
That the POS system is user-friendly and that the support team is always on the ball and solves issues quickly and smoothly.

Cons
It isn’t possible to set up an automatic update for stock levels. It would be useful to be able to set ‘Quantity 20’ for ‘Dish of the Day’ and tick ‘update daily’, so that it is restocked with that quantity every day. This would significantly reduce the amount of manual work, as many dishes on the menu need to be updated daily.
Everything requires the internet, but of course that’s how it is – I realise that too.
I cannot see any major shortcomings
Can't think of anything Hicore hasn't solved
