With a well-functioning point-of-sale software system, operational efficiency can improve significantly at any restaurant. POS software is primarily used to simplify communication between all staff members. By allowing prompt and reliable interaction between kitchen, bar, and other employees, POS systems can limit misunderstandings in the workplace. Happier employees means better customer service, and therefore, happier patrons.

With long hours and hectic schedules, restaurants need to stay on track even when internet outages happen. Some POS systems, like Pepperkorns Restaurant Edition, are cloud-based and can operate fully offline. In the event of downtime at your restaurant, all critical and memory processing still takes place in perfect synchronization across all units. Pepperkorns system stores data on your devices until an internet connection is re-established. With built-in cloud-based technology, theres no need to install a costly server on premise or switch to offline mode, saving time and money for other ways to grow your business.

In todays increasingly mobile world, many point-of-sale systems have the ability to integrate with devices you already use at your business, like smartphones or tablets. Look for a POS system that can improve efficiency by synching iOS devices (iPads, iPhones, iPod Touches) with other POS hardware. Once your restaurant is set up, your devices will communicate with hardware like cash drawers, printers, and credit card readers.
