New POS System Ready For All Of Your Business Needs

Complementing the distinctive QR code ordering and payment solution

GoTab was recently featured in Restaurant BusinessOnline’s weekly roundup of the latest in restaurant technology. At the forefront of innovation in the hospitality technology sector, GoTab’s POS system creates an All-In-One Platform, in order to best streamline the process.

A Complete Restaurant Commerce Platform

The GoTab restaurant-based POS was designed to help operators adapt to changing consumer preferences while still creating a personal connection with guests. Operators can now easily tailor a guest-initiated experience or a server-initiated experience, enabling both parties to start and access the ordering tab and giving everyone flexibility to place orders however they wish.

GoTab helps operators to capture each guest's preferences and build upon their ordering data to create loyalty programs and build more effective marketing programs. This provides them an opportunity to further build connections, enhance the guest experience, and continue to communicate with guests beyond their dining visit.

POS System

A Point Of Sale system is used throughout the restaurant industry helping business owners track sales, cash flow, food inventory, and help simplify the business’s bookkeeping process enormously. The high volume of cash and credit cards that pass through a restaurant each day make the system a necessity. Not only does it track your sales, but it also serves as a credit card processor. This makes swiping credit cards more secure for both the customer and the business.

One of the many benefits of a POS system is that it simplifies communications between the kitchen and the wait staff. Orders go through the system, directly to the kitchen printer. Another benefit of a restaurant POS is that it can track everything from food usage to the most popular menu items, giving operators better insights to run their business.

Situated “in the heart of it all, yet tranquil enough to make you feel away from it all too,” The Limelight Hotel Snowmass offers 99 hotel rooms and 11 residences, as well as footsteps-to-gondola access in winter and summer — right in the middle of Snowmass Base Village.

The Situation

Especially over the last few years, the Limelight Hotels IT team had witnessed a significant shift to contactless technology in the hospitality industry. After evaluating friction points in the guest journey, aligning with modern technology platforms in their restaurant was determined to be an effective way to offer elevated contactless dining experiences to their guests while also evolving their technology platforms to continue to support long-term company goals. Limelight Hotel partnered with GoTab to provide an enhanced on-demand dining experience on par with the brand’s reputation for exceptional guest service.

The Solution

Reducing Staff Touch Points Without Sacrificing Guest Experience

Guests are now able to begin a tab from their room or the property’s restaurant by scanning a QR code, texting a link to friends or family members on the ski slope to add in their orders, then meeting up together at the patio or lodge to enjoy their meal and après ski festivities without interruption. By streamlining tasks like inputting orders and processing payments, this eliminates friction for hotel staff and allows them to focus on delivering renowned guest service for a memorable experience. Since partnering with GoTab, Limelight Snowmass has consistently seen higher check averages and sales.

“We found the Point of Sale platforms we were looking at offered the guest and staff limited opportunities to further reduce touch points or improve the traditional restaurant experience. The GoTab platform enabled the guest to take an active role over the flow of their experience while simultaneously reducing touch points and further streamlining restaurant operations.”Nick Giglio, Manager of Hotel IT Operations, The Little Nell Hotel Group

According to the Limelight Hotels team, some of the other platforms that were evaluated were either missing some of the pieces they were looking for, had weak customer support models, or had little willingness to develop integrations to existing hotel platforms already in place. To that end, GoTab integrated with cloud-based platform, Infor. Together, GoTab and Infor are providing dynamic solutions to support central, efficient service across hotel amenities and deliver exceptional guest experiences.

“Previously, guests would call down to the restaurant to begin an order from their room or while they were out enjoying the ski slopes. Using GoTab, guests can now place orders from anywhere on the resort, giving them the on-demand service they want without interrupting their day. GoTab empowers us to give control to the guest, reducing touch points and streamlining overall restaurant operations, making Limelight Hotel the resort of choice for Snowmass.”Nick Giglio, Manager of Hotel IT Operations, The Little Nell Hotel Group

Since introducing GoTab, The Limelight Hotel has seen a consistent level of upsells and items sold per check resulting in additional revenue capture. They have been able to maintain service levels in their restaurants during periods when there was reduced staffing available without significantly diminishing the guest experience.
