Have you ever noticed that no matter how carefully you plan the schedule, you still have too many employees when business is slow, and too few when it's busy?
That's just one of the reasons why so many restaurants have been trying out self-serve kiosks - because you could have a half dozen of them on shift, at all times, for no extra cost.
As an added bonus, I've never seen a kiosk break a dish, get an order wrong, or lose track of time on their break. They never have a bad attitude, forget to suggest upsells, or call in sick either - the only downside to using a kiosk, is that they can't carry food out to your customers.
What they can do though, is increase your sales, while reducing your labor cost - and that's a double whammy.

You might want to consider scheduling a free demo too, it's easy, just click the button in the top right corner, that says "Get A Demo." That way you can see exactly what makes Applova kiosks special.
Though self-serve checkouts are becoming widely used in many grocery stores and restaurants, the traditional options all offer a similar look and feel, with limited options for customization. These kiosks from Applova are basically the opposite. They're fully customizable, can be changed or modified at any time, and include machine learning technology for upsells.
By including custom graphics for your menu items, Applova kiosks can help to bypass language barriers and provide your customers with insight into their meals by displaying each ingredient. It doesn't hurt that showing pictures of all that delicious food tends to increase order sizes either.
It's more than just ordering food, it's almost an experience. The kiosks allow for a diverse set of menu options, meal customizations, and combinations so that your customers can still customize their meals if that's an option you provide. But instead of feeling rushed while someone waits for them, they can take their time and make sure everything is absolutely correct before they place the order.
The benefits don't stop there either. To improve productivity after an order is placed, the kiosks can be integrated with your existing POS system and kitchen printers or screens, so new orders are automatically transferred to, or displayed on the proper screens. To assist with the process, Applova provides an in-depth, personal customer service program that is available throughout the USA - and don't worry, it's a real human that can walk you through everything, not just a robot.
Now, I know I've mentioned upsells and machine learning, but you probably want to know how it all works. It's actually fairly simple, and that's part of why it's so effective.
Using the built-in machine learning system, the kiosks can track the most popular menu items, what other items they are most often purchased with, and how these trends change over time. With that information, the kiosks can suggest “intelligent upsells,” based on the current most popular items, other items in your customer’s current order, or items suggested by you, the restaurant owner.
Applova kiosks are designed as a full substitution for your order-taking staff, though they can also be used in combination with staff-operated checkouts to reduce your labor costs, while still providing customers with an option for how to order. If you're not sure how your customers will respond, I definitely recommend trying out one or two kiosks in combination with a human-staffed till, so your regular customers can try it out, and you can see just how effective it is.
Just don't forget that if you're unsure - it's super easy to schedule a free demonstration, and as they say, seeing is believing.
You could also see what other restaurant owners have to say, just look them up on Google to check out their 4.6 out of 5-star rating - that's a hard trick to pull off in the food industry.
As one happy restaurant owner explained, “The perfect Kiosk solution for fast-casual restaurants. Works seamlessly with Clover and their customer support is a real person, literally helping you hand in hand to make sure everything works and that you are satisfied with the experience.”
