Oracle has introduced a new restaurant management platform to help independent restaurants increase sales and maximise profitability. Oracle Restaurants provides operators Point of Sale hardware and software, payment processing, and online ordering capabilities.

The new offering is designed to allow restaurants to improve menu management, increase direct online sales, and deliver a better experience.

“Independent restaurants operate on razor-thin margins and are challenged at every turn to remain competitive in an increasingly digital landscape,” said Simon de Montfort Walker, executive vice president and general manager for Oracle Food and Beverage. “While other POS-vendors have recently taken advantage of restaurants with forced migrations and hidden fees, we are providing operators a swift, affordable path to the latest restaurant technology that provides simple, transparent pricing and payment terms to help them succeed, grow, and improve profitability.”

The Table Service and Quick Service bundles enable restaurants with:

• Integrated Online Ordering to help increase online orders and optimise search results to accelerate customer acquisition.
• Oracle Restaurants POS to manage every aspect of the menu including images and prices, as well as promotions, allergen notifications, and nutrition information for every channel in one location.
• Oracle Payment Cloud Service, end-to-end reconciliation reporting, and the latest digital payment methods.
• Workstation 8 to give restaurants a 14-inch touchscreen display.
• Essential peripherals to ensure restaurateurs have a comprehensive workstation toolset to meet their needs, including a countertop payment terminal, cash drawer, and a receipt and kitchen printer for operations.

The Table Service Bundle includes Oracle’s Mobile Order and Pay solution. The Low-Profile Workstation configuration helps operators with limited counter or floor space remove barriers between staff and guests.
