QTimer is a drive-thru solution that provides web-based reporting and transaction-level detail, giving restaurants key insights into performance. That is, restaurants can find the specific stations and products where slow-downs occurred, greatly enabling management capabilities. As well, HyperActive's "Enterprise Reporting Portal" measures drive-thru times in individual restaurants and aggregates information across user-definable groups up to and including results for the entire organization. The system also has user-definable "export" and "subscription" features, which enable chains to configure and send reports and "feeds" in a variety of formats on a scheduled basis to anyone in the organization via email or their own preferred management communications media.
