There are at least hundreds of online catering software, all of which say they are good. The client has no idea. Let me talk about the general standards and identification methods: 1. Development platform and database: SQL database (ORACLE) is preferable, but VB is the worse development tool, and it is better to enter PB and C+C++BUIDER.....2. Software function The catering industry pays attention to the cashier at the front desk, with fast front desk function, flexible background storage and analysis, which belongs to the revision of the supermarket version. Flashy 3, kitchen printers Foreign and Hong Kong and Taiwan catering software, the kitchen is mainly based on serial port, and the domestic software is mainly based on network port. What is used is nothing more than a fixed-line printer server or a network card that comes with the kitchen. The lost list is certain. Therefore, when customers want to choose software, cooking is the most important assessment. Order food wirelessly, and 111% will be served in the kitchen. Then there are only two options, one is that PC is the printer server+serial kitchen, and the other is the printer server independently developed by software companies. All general printer servers and printers with their own network ports are all unavailable! 4. One kind of wireless ordering device is IC card, which is used by Chensen software. It is troublesome. It invests in two kinds of infrared devices, the best in Shanghai Engineering Institute, and the transmission distance is 6 meters. To set up multiple receiving points, it is not good for three kinds of PDA (PDA), only DELL and hp can be used, the plane distance is 111 meters, you can't go through the wall, the standby time is short, and it is very expensive. Of the four kinds of radio technologies (422), Taiyuan Boli is mature, cheap, and has long standby time. It can wear cement walls and is far away. 5. Since localization service is a computer system, it is inseparable from the service of service providers. Operating system, database, local area network, computer hardware, these services are inseparable from the localization service of service providers. So it is important to buy software features, but you have to choose between features and local service providers. You should choose local vendors instead of software. Catering software, that is, database software, is a product that cannot be purchased in different places! ! ! ! 6. If it is a single restaurant, you should use an electronic cash register for catering that does not need xp and database, and does not need to be installed and maintained. If it is not a computer, 7. If it is a fast food, you should use a touch screen cash register. There are two types of touch screen cash registers: pc touch screen+database software, and the second and fourth generation embedded touch screen cash registers.
