PixelPoint POS Version 9 is one of PixelPoint’s boldest releases ever, enabling you to do more with your POS investment. Regardless of your style of operation, PixelPoint POS v9 will help you adapt to market trends by giving you the tools you want and expect from your POS, all in a single, easy to use out-of-the-box POS
application. PixelPoint’s approach to delivering innovation enables you to embrace change easily and effectively while providing the necessary tools to increase your bottom line.
Here are some highlights of what to expect from PixelPoint POS v9:
Enhanced Order Screen
Keep it simple or create screens that are as creative as your concept.
We know no operation looks or functions the same and we believe that your POS should give you the flexibility and freedom to bring your vision to reality. The appearance of the order screen has been dramatically enhanced, with improved text positioning, button functionality and overall graphics capabilities. This is not all about how it is viewed, but how it functions. By having the ability to modify the order screen to suit your restaurant, you can cut down on the time it takes to order while improving server accuracy and shortening the learning curve for new
operators.
Kiosk
Ready to take your restaurant to the next level of self-serve?
With no separate software required, adding a Kiosk to your restaurant has never been so easy. PixelPoint Kiosk is designed to cut down on labor costs and speed up the ordering process, enabling a whole new level of profitability. The Kiosk will pull menu items directly from your menu database on the POS terminal, providing a seamless integration into your POS system. To enhance the customer’s user experience even further, the Kiosk functionality includes sound and motion graphics, truly engaging your customer and providing an experience not available with other POS systems on the market.
Customer Display / Order Display
Up-sell and increase order accuracy right at your POS.
We know that you are always trying to figure out ways to get your customer to increase their spend on each visit. To aid in this effort, PixelPoint now supports dual-screen hardware offering a customer display that is ideal for
counter service and/or quick serve restaurants. Using v9’s powerful new Form Designer you can design your order confirmation and display screen to promote add-on products and combos when the customer reaches the counter, and have it switch to an order confirmation screen as the customer places their order, insuring order accuracy. It is all about engaging the customer and this feature handles that task with ease.
Form Designer
Our most powerful customization tool to date.
With the hospitality market becoming more and more competitive, we know how important it is to stand out from and above the competition. PixelPoint BackOffice contains a user-interface called Form Designer, which is the single most important tool that contributes to the unbelievable level of customization that is now available. This feature offers significantly enhanced graphics and design functionality that truly sets this software apart from all others in the market. Form Designer enables the installer to design custom finish screens, order screens, forced question screens, Kiosk screens and other screens, such as customer displays for dual-screen stations and order screens for wireless order-taking with PocketPOS. Form Designer is able to do all this in an easy and intuitive manner through toolbars, icons and easy to read windows. What is the result of all this advancement? You end up with a POS system that is custom-configured to flow with your business, reducing training time, improving order accuracy and looking great while doing so.
Forecast
Always have the perfect amount of staff on duty.
Labor costs are quite often a key factor in turning a profit or managing a loss. PixelPoint’s Employee Scheduler now includes a forecast function that compares labor to past sales over a range of time. The Forecast function can compare your past sales at a certain time (say Tuesday evenings) and intelligently suggest how many staff you will need for subsequent Tuesdays. As you know certain evenings will have larger sales than others, why have the same amount of staff throughout the week? The Forecast function takes the guess work out and ensures that you have more staff working when you are making more money and less staff working on the historically slow nights. Just another way PixelPoint turns your POS system into a strategic investment.
