## Reviews

### "TPP the overview" — 5.0/5

> **Alexis** | *17 July 2024* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that TPP has different app integrations that allow us to almost seamlessly use other programs such as staffing software.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like that TPP doesn't have the ability to update times or details once transfer to another software.
> 
> TPP had a big learning curve and takes a lot of effort to put together but once you have the system in place it can do amazing things.

### "Love This Software" — 5.0/5

> **Davii** | *16 April 2019* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Total Party Planner is the best catering software. I use it several times a day. It keeps track of all my events in an easy to use platform.
> 
> **Cons**: It sometimes has glitches. I usually point them out and they get fixed sooner or later. The phone app needs real help.
> 
> Their customer service is awesome: friendly and responsive.

-----

### "Excellent and Thankful" — 5.0/5

> **Jacob** | *24 June 2021* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The customer service behind this company and product are what make this product so excellent\! TPP is versatile on how you can use it and where something may not work the same way as other products, the Client Care team are always open to helping you figure out how to make it work.
> 
> **Cons**: There are some features that are not as developed. The Client Care team are always willing to have a conversation to try to make it work. In instances where it doesn't work, they take the feedback and work with their development team and see of there is a growth spot that they can grow in.
> 
> My overall experience is a 10 out of 10. Takes away the headache that is caused by other catering softwares.

### "The best customer service EVER" — 5.0/5

> **Mark** | *19 January 2021* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Total Party Planner  (TPP) was super easy to integrate. We were up and running within 20 minutes of installing. I had previously tried to integrate Caterease twice over the past 5 years. Caterease should be called CaterNOTease, because it is has a very complicated and obtuse interface. &#10;&#10;As easy as TPP's integration was, what really blew my team away was TPP's customer service and help desk. TPP is feature risk for every basic hospitality function imaginable; but every Catering business is "unique" and if we ever need to tweak how TPP presents our data or solves an issue, we simply send an email and voila, our answer appears in our in box with nary any wait. &#10;&#10;I honestly feel sorry for all the folks  that go with Caterease, out of ignorance as to the availability of TPP and all that it offers...I literally stumbled upon it after two fruitless ( and expensive\! ) adventures with Caterease.&#10;&#10;If anyone would like to contact me directly, I would happily share more details on how delighted we are with the TPP software.
> 
> **Cons**: TPP has a mobile phone app, that is adequate, but could be better.
> 
> We have been able to integrate  all of our invoicing, client contacts, client contracts, itineraries , calendars, menu building, cost analysis and inventory into ONE software package. TPP truly offers the ability to easily integrate all of your functionalities into one silo.

> **Neal** | *4 April 2024* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of Use and Functionality. Catering Software is OK
> 
> **Cons**: Subscribed to TPP Pay and they have HIDDEN FEES that you would not believe- Every Day its Another.
