The Aptito Communicator is our newest flavor and spice that we are adding to our digital menu revolution. Think about this, when you are dining a restaurant that does not have technology in place, what happens when you need a drink refilled? What happens when you want your check? How fast does your food order make it to the kitchen? What if you want to call the waiter?
Previous options included:
- Flagging your server down by hollering or using hand signals;
- Waiting until your server saw that your drinks needed to be refilled;
- Hoping that your server would stop by your table every so often to attend to your needs;
- Having to generally ask them for your check, so that you could tender payment;
- Sufficing to the staff functions of a restaurant and hoping that they would be attentive enough to offer substantial customer service.
With the Aptito Communicator – a smartphone app that we recently added to our All-in-One solution – this experience entirely changes. All servers are given smartphones that are loaded with our app, and the smartphones all link up directly with your digital menus and iPad POS system.
Request Waiter – Press a button on your digital menu to request table service from your waiter. The Aptito Communicator notifies them that your table – the table number and location on the grid inside of the restaurant – is in need of their personal attention
Get Your Check – No need to ever wait for your check again. You can simply request it from the server and their Aptito Communicator devices informs them that you are ready to have your bill brought to your table. If you are using a POS enabled system, and paid from our digital menu, then the communicator will tell them that your check has been tendered, so nobody thinks that you are “dining and ditching.”
Order More Drinks – Need more drinks? No problem. Enter the desired drinks into your menu and place the order. PING – the server’s smartphone lets them know that you are thirsty, and what beverages to bring to your table.
Expedite Food – Busy servers no more. Food orders can be routed right to the Aptito Communicator, a server can then be informed, and ensure that your order is accurate before sending it off to the kitchen.
