Using our cloud-based POS systems within your hotel
A hotel isn’t just built on payments at the reception, you have the drinks bar and invariably a restaurant where your guests will want to eat and unwind. Using our cloud-based POS systems within your hotel will incorporate a visual table plan across multiple floors or dining areas and you are able to book appointments in advance, assigning customers to a particular table so you can gauge how busy you’ll be ahead of the event. Our POS software controls what has been sold, so if the sirloin steak has gone, the system won’t allow the serving staff to accept or process any additional orders saving any potential embarrassments. It also offers a very personal service with the niche touch of prompting the waiting staff to ask customers how they’d prefer a particular item cooked, i.e. steak – medium rare/well done.
Tailor made cloud-based POS systems
You can tailor make your cloud-based POS towards your bespoke requirements which gives the ability to up sell or promote a particular product whilst also including any promotional offers. Cloud-based POS systems comprise of a wide range of peripherals which are tailor made towards a hotel or B&B. A few of the peripherals include keyboards, Wi-Fi printers, tablets, card terminals, weighing scales, touch screen monitors and barcode scanners. Not every hotel will require all of the above and these are additional extras which are optional. The additional printers are particularly beneficial to a hotel where they may be taking payments at one printer, and the order can then be fed through to the restaurant confirming a table’s order and any specific notes meaning staff don’t need to trudge backwards and forwards.
What training comes with my cloud-based POS system?
Hotels invariably have lots of staff and it’s important everyone knows how to use the POS system. Training of your hotel staff and management team is pivotal to make maximum use of your POS system.
