There was a time not too long ago when point-of-sale meant, quite literally, a place at which customers made a purchase. Fast forward to 2021, and that place can now be found in the cloud, on mobile devices, browser-based applications, voice-activated platforms—and whatever may be right around the corner (and you know it's coming).Here, we polled restaurant operators to learn their top priorities for POS software investments and implementations in 2021, and we solicited new product information from top restaurant tech vendors.
Once considered a “nice to have” or a “We’ll get to it later,” the implementation of IoT devices, high speed networks, contactless technologies and more is happening at warp speed — meaning that the hotel of the future, once three to five years out, is now just around the corner. By the time we’re all willing and able to travel again, our collective hotel experience could be significantly different from what we remember. Here’s a brief look at what might have changed.
