Solution Enables Restaurant Guests to Order from Kiosk
DULUTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 3, 2017--
NCR
Corporation (NYSE: NCR), a global leader in omni-channel solutions,
today announced an extension to the NCR Aloha Platform that will enable
restaurants to increase speed of service, improve order accuracy and
increase overall customer satisfaction by providing their customers with
a self-ordering kiosk. The Consumer Self-Ordering solution is available
now in North America.
“A self-ordering kiosk is yet another strong example of NCR’s
omni-channel leadership in the restaurant industry,” said Don Zimmerman,
vice president & general manager for hospitality at NCR. “This solution
is further proof that NCR is leading the reinvention of how restaurants
connect with their customers and create better experiences for them,
while controlling costs.”
Restaurants of all types are looking to expand the number of channels in
which their guests can connect, interact and transact with them.
“Restaurant brands are undergoing an evolution and transforming their
operations to become digitally integrated businesses. Omni-channel
software that can help integrate physical and digital channels, while
aggregating, integrating and presenting enterprise data, is critical to
their success,” said Greg Buzek, President, IHL Group.
The NCR Consumer Self-Ordering solution creates a new on-premise
channel. Restaurant guests can take their time to review the entire
menu, look at special offers and place their order – all without
standing in a queue. This can result in a better overall experience for
the guest and, typically, higher check averages for the restaurant.
NCR Consumer Self-Ordering software is now available on iPad devices for
fast casual and quick-service operators throughout the United States and
Canada. The software will be available on built-for-purpose devices and
other operating systems later this year, giving restaurant operators
choice and flexibility in how they deploy their consumer self-ordering
needs.
