Add a Toast integration so that payments and events in Perfect Venue are better integrated with Toast.

I concur! A Toast integration is very needed!

Events Department

We would love a toast integrations so we can better run reports specifically for events booked through PV.

Sara Montero

We would definitely love an integration with toast. It would ease our process when having events and caterings. When I sell an event through perfect venue, I always have to enter the sales in toast too, so I have to do it twice and also, the tax never matches between toast and PV I don't know why.

Can't wait!

Hi Luke, we do not use Otter and I am unfamiliar with what they offer. We may not be inclined to spend an additional $100/month but are interested in more information around Otter

Luke Hutchison

Diane Black Hey! 
Otter is a tool that helps aggregate delivery and take out orders: https://www.tryotter.com/
It costs around $100/mo unfortunately though, so trying to figure out if we integrated with Otter would it actually be something venues would want to use.

Diane Black

Luke Hutchison Got it. Honestly, I do not think this is something that we would be interested in because we are such a small venue and our volume is not too much to handle.

Luke Hutchison

Diane Black - sounds good, thank you!

Sara Montero

Diane Black Yeah, I think of the same thing. We are a family owned business and we already pay a good amount $ for integrations. I don't think we would be interested in paying that. But we would LOOOVE to have PV integrated with toast so bad!! That would be so much helpful for us.

Emily Rubin

Luke Hutchison Hi! We are moving from Square to Toast as our POS system. Having the ability to have any ordered item in a proposal pull directly into Toast would allow us to use Perfect Venue for Catering as well as events. Happy to share more details.

I am not familiar with Otter. Is it basically a go-between to transfer information from one technology into another?

Luke Hutchison

Emily Rubin Otter is a tool that helps aggregate delivery and take out orders: https://www.tryotter.com/ Yes, it is a tool to connect delivery/outside ordering platforms and the POS.

Phil Marienthal

yes

Reese Railling

While Toast integration may be helpful, I’m not convinced it is worth $100/month without knowing more.

Darnell Jones

Hey Luke, We do not use Otter. I am unfamiliar with Otter. Could you provide more information?

Luke Hutchison

Darnell Jones Forsure, Otter provides a way to connect POS systems to external tools like Perfect Venue, delivery apps, etc. https://www.tryotter.com/

Kayla Paggett

Hi Luke, I do not use Otter but I know some who do and I love the idea of TOAST integration as that is a current difficulty we have to deal with

Luke Hutchison

Kayla Paggett Thanks for the feedback! Would you be willing to pay the $100/mo that Otter charges to be able to integrate? Unfortunately Toast is backed up and a direct integration will likely be further out.
