Storey vs Toast
Toast does not publish standard pricing. Each business gets a quote, with upfront costs concentrated in hardware and implementation. Its 24/7 support is included at no extra cost.
Storey is one flat product: every module — retail, restaurants and table service, reservations and bookings, invoicing, inventory, employee management, e-commerce and loyalty — is included, with no per-feature fees, no paid tiers and no software cost. The only paid part is card processing, at competitive rates with no software markup.
