In this challenging economic climate, restaurant owners need to leverage every advantage at their disposal, and the Pilot Point of Sale system could be the difference between success and stagnation. There are many benefits to our PoS system, and it has been designed to improve every aspect of restaurant management. In this blog, we look at the many advantages of Pilot Point of Sale.

1. Improve front to back office management

Need a Point of Sale solution that will help you manage your restaurant front and back office and keep your finger on the pulse of your establishment? You’ve got it.

  • Back of house: Control stock at all points, manage recipe costings, have visibility of raw material usage and view powerful reports.
  • Front of house: Process orders easily with touchscreen technology and biometric security.

Get centralised control that will enable you to manage and standardise recipes, menus and pricing. Take full control of your system remotely and lock down sites to prevent changes. And you can easily deploy updates to sites from anywhere.

Data insights with PilotLive

Your restaurant can benefit from cloud-based access to transactional data, meaningful reports and metrics. PilotLive is a reporting tool that provides real-time operational and financial data. It is an online browser-based feature that allows you to use data to your advantage. Your PoS collects data as processes run through it. These relevant and reliable metrics are shown in easy-to-read reports that give you insight into your establishment. They can be used to increase sales, improve workflows, identify operational weak points, eliminate revenue leakage and stock wastage, and accurately forecast financials.
