    Dencar Screen Consistently Freezing Up- 8 months old- Anyone Else

    He's right. Dencar sucks at solving their own equipment fails. They are awesome however, at selling you a 'carwash philosophy'

    Dencar Retrofit Door Paystation

    Our worst biz choice yet. Are they pretty, yes. Can Ron & Phil talk the talk, hell yes. Is the unit reliable, no. Is it easily repairable on-site by yourself, no. Are you locking yourself into a closed software ecosystem, sadly yes.

    Dencar Retrofit Door Paystation

    Going Dencar is our absolute worst business decision. From keep-it-in-the-cloud to subStandard components from China, Phil &Ron while good guys...got way over their skis. Ya wanta see the little guys win, but they gear is simply too fragile for this biz.

    Hamilton HTK mobile app worth the price?

    Tylerwash, fyi only, I'm about to ditch my Dencar unit for an ICS or Hamilton model. While we all want to see a garage band (Ron & Phil) do well against the big uglies - how long does an IBA operator, living beyond service truck driving distance (Ohio-ish?), have to deal with replacing the...

    New Petit install & having HELL!! Need some help

    Also a huge fan of Tom Petit's gear....never thought to hire dancers for my sites. Might lose my soccer mom customers. We'll disagree on the rest, and plenty of unhappy folks choose to remain silent for fear of retribution.

    New Petit install & having HELL!! Need some help

    Wow. naked shilling for Ron&Phil? Be sure to also mention: most expensive, huge monthly fee, slow tech support, poor components quality.

    Things Just Got Real

    Tom Petit makes a great IBA, regretting that I paired it with a Dencar: hella over-priced vs other pay stations, big monthly fee, and now that they are selling more units...Ron & Phil refuse to answer email and telephone questions any more. Must be nice...once you're rich and have hooked...

    Petit 360i long bay

    Nope, no sir. That's it - you are out of the circle of trust. I can abide Canadians, Texans, even the occasional brit... but a follower of That Team Up North - too much. no. I'll be sending a request to Tom/James and Phil/Ron to permanently embargo the entire state of ichigan. Or, you can admit...

    Dencar Pay Stations

    Definitely a mixed bag: love,, the growing potential of a Dencar kiosk to market via single use QR codes, the stainless steel box is excellent, the screen interface v professional in appearance and flow, VIAguard is a useful tool esp with the Membership focus. dislike,, monthly software fee of...

    hi Ryan, nobody wants to whack on a startup company,, willing to TRY and compete w Unitex/Hamilton/bigBoys etc. Still, the issues range from annoyance to serious pathway and time/$ drains. Everyone likes Ron and Phil, personally. Hell, I want them to win...but my patience and wallet are wearing...

    New Washify Pay Station for IBA's

    Could not disagree (respectfully) more about Dencar. It's been an expensive nightmare. I'm actively researching how to replace the electronics inside with ANYTHING else...and just keep the shiny box (it's good-looking, for sure)

    Any Ahha moments from ICA in Nashville?

    Wish I had researched exectly where Dencar was at in their vision. So frustrating...and no where near the suggested cost/benefit ratio. A bad decision on my part.
