Restaurant management software

Short description: Software for restaurant operations

Restaurant management software is the collective term for software that is used to aid in restaurant operations. This is mainly POS software, but can include other types of software as well. Such software usually assists with ordering, billing, inventory management, and queue management, and can be broadly divided into FOH (front of house) and BOH (back of house) software.^[1] Benefits of using software to manage aspects of restaurant operations include efficiency and a reduction in customer wait times,^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] as well as preventing employee scams.^[6]

Prevalent restaurant management software companies include: serVme, OpenTable, Presto, Resy, Tock, SevenRooms and Omnifi.

Examples of restaurant software are 'order at table' and 'pay at table' apps, which effectively allow the customer to order and pay independently. The only input from serving staff is in actually bringing food and drink to the table.
