1. Should I choose a software package that was designed specifically for my industry?

Answer: Not necessarily. Our restaurant management software is being implemented at many "non-restaurant locations, such as Frabricland. While there are many industry-specific software packages available, many of them don't offer all of the features available in a general point of sale software package. Ask yourself what features you need now and in the future.

2. How much does a POS system cost?

Answer: Like buying a car, it just depends on what you want.

3. How will I know how to choose the right POS system?

Answer: First and foremost, take the time to understand the specific needs of your restaurant, bar or entertainment complex. Establish your total technology budget. If necessary, break it down into the things you need this year and things that can wait until next year. Find reputable technology companies with years of expertise in the restaurant industry. Ask for references and call them.

4. Should I buy the point of sale hardware or the software first?

Answer: The single biggest mistake restaurateurs make when choosing a new POS system is buying the point of sale hardware before the restaurant software. The software you choose to run your business or franchise may not be compatible with your new point of sale hardware. Not all scanners, weight scales, or card readers will work with all restaurant software packages.
