1, development platform and database:
It is better to use SQL database (ORACLE) than ACCESS.
The poor development tools are VB, and the better ones are PB and C Builder. .....
2. Software functions
The catering industry pays attention to the front desk cashier, which is fast and flexible.
There are a lot of background storage analysis, which belongs to the revision of supermarket version and is flashy.
3. Kitchen printer
Foreign and Hong Kong and Taiwan's catering software, the kitchen is mainly serialized, and never loses orders.
Domestic software is mainly based on the network port, which is nothing more than the fixed-line printer server or the network card that comes with the kitchen. The list of lost names is affirmative.
Therefore, when customers want to choose software, cooking is the most important assessment. Wireless ordering, 100% will be served in the kitchen. Then there are only two options, one is that PC is printer server+serial kitchen, and the other is printer server independently developed by software company. All general printer servers and printers with their own network ports are unavailable!
4. Wireless ordering equipment
One is IC card, which is used by Chen Sen software. It is troublesome and expensive.
Of the two infrared rays, Gong Li is the best, with a transmission distance of 6 meters. It is not good to arrange multiple receiving points.
Three kinds of PDA (PDA) can only be used by Dell and Hewlett-Packard. The plane distance is 100 meters, and it can't go through the wall. The standby time is short and expensive. Good-looking and practical?
Among the four radio technologies (422), Taiyuan Boli is mature, cheap, long standby time, able to wear cement walls and far away.
5. Localization services
Since it is a computer system, it is inseparable from the services 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 must choose between features and local service providers. You should choose local suppliers instead of software. Catering software, that is, database software, is a product that cannot be purchased in different places!
6. If it's a single restaurant, then use an electronic cash register that doesn't need xp and database and is installed and maintained, if it's not a computer.
7. If it's fast food, you should use a touch-screen cash register. There are two kinds of touch screen cash registers, one is pc touch screen+database software, and the other is the fourth generation embedded touch screen cash register.
I don't represent any catering software or wireless ordering treasure. I just have 18 years of industry experience, and tell customers the identification method I summarized. May stimulate the interests of some people, but don't blame me, or solve your own problems!
