The holiday season is one of the busiest times of the year for restaurants. From family gatherings to corporate parties, the demand for pleasant, festive, and smooth dining experiences soars. Many restaurants take on new employees to accommodate the influx of business. However, this also brings the unique challenge of training holiday hires quickly and effectively. Fortunately, Aldelo Express, a leading cloud-based point-of-sale (POS) system, offers an intuitive and user-friendly solution that helps make training processes much easier. With image-based ordering, a user-friendly interface, familiar navigation features, and same-day system onboarding, Aldelo Express can significantly reduce the time and effort it takes to train new staff, enabling staff to focus on delivering exceptional service during the holiday rush.
Image-Based Ordering & User-Friendly Interface: The Key to Faster Learning
One of the standout features of Aldelo Express is its simple, intuitive interface with image-based ordering. The system is designed with ease of use in mind, allowing even new employees with minimal technical experience to quickly grasp its functionality. With image-based ordering, new employees don’t waste time familiarizing themself with where specific items are in each category, but quickly locate food and drinks so they can efficiently take orders even during peak hours. Combined with graphical table layouts with Aldelo Express Table Management features, Aldelo Express’s clean and logical layout ensures that new hires can start taking orders, managing tables, and processing payments with minimal training time. This streamlined interface also reduces the likelihood of errors. For restaurant owners, fewer mistakes mean faster service and happier customers, which is particularly critical during the holiday season when every second counts. Saving just 30 seconds of order taking time during a busy period can save guests minutes of wait time and contribute to higher table turn rates and faster service for dine-in, takeout, curbside pickup, and delivery orders. With Aldelo Express, employees can confidently navigate the system, ensuring smooth operations even on the busiest days. |
Familiar Navigation Features: Smart POS Gestures on Tablet Devices
From smartphones and laptops to self-service kiosks and customer-facing tablet displays, millions of Americans interact with multi-touch interfaces on a daily basis. That is why Aldelo Express POS supports multi-touch capabilities that make it easy for employees to simplify everyday transactions and POS system management. By working with familiar multi-touch user-interfaces, employees spend less time learning how to use POS devices and more time adjusting to business workflows and providing personalized guest experiences.
Every Aldelo Express tablet supports “smart” POS gestures that can instantaneously launch specific features and functions with one touch rather than through multiple steps. Touchscreen “gestures” involve using one or multiple fingers to move around a smart device through both swiping and tapping specific locations on the screen. As a result, easy-to-use devices improve overall system efficiency and increase staff morale amidst the pressure of holiday crowds.
