"In my opinion, the InfoGenesis POS system is the most advanced point-of-sale solution on the market," said Gary McCallum, vice president of hotel information systems for Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group. "Its flexibility and performance are simply unmatched in the industry. We have used this solution at our other properties with great success and are confident it will maximize productivity at our two newest hotels. We are also excited about using the ResPAK solution at our Barcelona property to manage restaurant reservations and tables and create a more memorable guest experience."
The InfoGenesis POS system is an award-winning point-of-sale software solution that combines powerful reporting and configuration capabilities in the back office with an easy-to-use touch-screen terminal application. Designed for multi-unit operations common in hospitality environments, the system can manage any combination of dining, bar, room service and gift shop operations. Features of the InfoGenesis POS solution include real-time reporting capabilities, audit log and electronic journal, multi-language capability, packages and prix fixe menus, signature capture and advanced sorting, filtering and grouping options.
The ResPAK solution is a comprehensive restaurant management software system designed to increase efficiency, minimize staff costs and maximize revenue. Its real-time self-service portal optimizes online reservations without the need for staff, and SMS messaging and paging ensures timely guest communication. Built-in e-mail functionality and storage of guest details and preferences allows for targeted marketing campaigns. Reporting and analysis tools reveal trends in bookings and spend, enabling restaurants to plan for staffing during peak and quiet periods.
