Running or working at a restaurant means every day is different. Aldelo Express offers restaurant owners reliable and easy-to-use point-of-sale solutions with several native POS solutions that digitally synchronize front-of-house and back-of-house processes. These include Aldelo Express POS for iPads, Android Tablets, and Android-based Mobile Handheld terminals, self-service Kiosks for lobby and tableside ordering, Masa+ Online Ordering and Digital Payments, digital Kitchen Display Systems (KDS), and more.
Here are 5 ways Aldelo Express Kitchen Display Systems benefit restaurant owners:
5. Order Accuracy
With an Aldelo Express Kitchen Display System, authorized restaurant staff utilize tablet-based POS terminals to make order corrections before and after an order has gone to the kitchen. Unlike printed paper tickets that cannot be digitally updated once the order is printed, an Aldelo Express KDS provides immediate order accuracy for single and multi-station kitchen operations via customizable Chef, Cook, Line, Station, and Expeditor display configurations, complete with color-coded modifiers, voids, and item notes. When an order is received, or changed, all prep station KDS monitors update in real-time eliminating the need to manage and coordinate printed paper tickets!

4. Total Cost of Ownership
Once installed, restaurant owners never have to maintain moving parts. With iPad-based display screens, Aldelo Express KDS systems have a simple “plug-and-play” setup. Removing mechanical printers means merchants eliminate breakdowns and downtime, service agreements, and printer swap/replacement programs saving them thousands of dollars over the life of their KDS system. As an additional bonus, counters are less cluttered and opened up to be used for other items, allowing staff to maximize their workspace!
3. Works in Conjunction with Legacy Printers
Aldelo Express KDS systems work independently or alongside legacy kitchen printers, supporting up to 20 iPad-based display screens and printing devices to support even the most robust operations. This includes expeditor station printers, label printers, sticky printers, and more. With digital kitchen display systems, orders never fade, get thrown out, or are spilled upon. This greatly improves accuracy for each order during back-of-house production. By using an HDMI cable to extend the iPad screen to any-sized monitors, restaurants instantly enhance front- and back-of-house communications for streamlined order production processes in any environment.
2. Ease of Installation
Using an Aldelo Express Kitchen Display System means simplifying back-of-house installation and setup. Users only need Wi-Fi and a power source to maintain iPad-based KDS display screens. With multiple size options for iPad tablets, restaurants utilize mini, standard, or full-size iPads as “bump bars” to any-sized kitchen displays, and mount iPads and KDS monitors on the wall to save counter space and improve back-of-house efficiencies at each prep station.
1. Increased Speed of Service
Because Aldelo Express Kitchen Display Systems are directly integrated into the point-of-sale and Masa+ Online Storefronts, orders are processed much faster compared to legacy kitchen systems. In fact, it is very common for operations to process 1-2 additional orders per hour when using digital kitchen display systems, generating thousands of additional dollars to the restaurant’s bottom line each year.
