Common questions
Yes, Popmenu's interactive features like dish-level likes and reviews are specific to their platform. Dinehere provides a clean, mobile-responsive menu that is easy to read but does not support interactive customer reviews on specific items.
No, Dinehere is purely a website solution and does not include email or SMS marketing tools. If you rarely used those features on Popmenu, switching will save you significant money. If marketing is essential, you might prefer a separate low-cost email tool alongside Dinehere.
Check your Popmenu agreement terms for cancellation windows. We recommend setting up your Dinehere site (which takes about 10 minutes) a few days before your contract expires so you can switch your domain over seamlessly without paying for an extra month.
Dinehere does not process orders. However, your Dinehere site can include a prominent button linking visitors to your preferred third-party delivery platforms (like UberEats, DoorDash, or Toast) if you have them.
It is straightforward. You own your domain name. You will simply need to update your DNS records (A Records) at your domain registrar to point to Dinehere instead of Popmenu. We provide instructions on how to do this.
Dinehere focuses on simplicity and does not offer a complex analytics dashboard. Our goal is to ensure your menu is visible and readable to hungry customers on Google, rather than providing deep data insights.
Dinehere is an automated builder. You upload your menu photos, and our AI parses the text to create your site instantly. You don't need coding skills or design experience—it's much faster than the onboarding process for complex platforms.
Popmenu charges for continuous software development of marketing tools, ordering systems, and support teams. Dinehere charges for a static, reliable hosting solution. You aren't paying for ongoing feature development you don't use.
Yes. While Popmenu has a complex backend, Dinehere allows you to upload a new photo of your menu, and the AI will update the text on your website, keeping it current with minimal effort.
