Five Guys' hunt for a new POS solution for its 1,200 stores ended withPAR Technology Corporation. The burger chain decided to deploy PAR’s Brink POS software, EverServ POS terminals, Mobile Tablet 10s, along with ParTech's software delivery and maintenance services after undergoing a comprehensive evaluation process, which included the formation of a Franchisee POS Task Force, according to a company press release.
The Task Force’s goal was to find an industry leader with high-quality POS hardware, cloud-based POS software and a reputation for first-class services to support the business, said Steve Teller, Project Manager at Five Guys.
“PAR’s total solution offering and their excellent reputation made them a clear choice for the Five Guys brand,” he said. “Their solution is a game-changer in our industry, and we have a true technology partner in PAR.”
Teller said the cloud-based SaaS architecture of Brink POS is the “launch-pad technology” allowing Five Guys to offer a complete solution that will easily adapt to changing demands.
“No longer do we need to keep our various technology platforms in silos,” Teller said. “Not only is the implementation quick and easy with low upfront costs, it also creates real-time enterprise control of the entire chain.”
With the Brink POS solution, stores eliminate the need for a back-office server and no data is ever stored in house. If connectivity issues arise, the POS software remains functional, ensuring that customer service will not be jeopardized, said ParTech's president Karen Sammon, who believes the Five Guys partnership is proof that ParTech is leading the way with hosted/SaaS POS software.
“The combination of our Brink POS Software and our EverServ 7700 terminals and mobile platform Tablet 10 provides fast casual and quick serve restaurants alike a solution to rapidly scale operations, deploy new stores and embrace modern use case scenarios," she said
