Alternative to Toast

The all-in-one Toast alternative for restaurants: ControlCMS

Commission-free online ordering, QR menu, kitchen display, table management and POS — in one browser-based platform with a 34-language storefront and your own domain. Everything sold as separate modules in Toast is included in ControlCMS.

Why ControlCMS is a strong Toast alternative

All-in-one, no per-feature fees

Online ordering, QR menu, KDS, tables and POS come in one plan — not as separately priced modules and hardware like Toast.

34-language menu & storefront

Each guest sees the menu and ordering site in their own language; your storefront runs on your own domain, fully under your brand.

Commission-free, no lock-in hardware

No per-order commission on your own channels, and everything runs in the browser — no proprietary terminals to buy.
