In this new, digital era, cloud and mobile technologies radically transformed restaurants across the world. But these mobile and wireless point of sale systems now require a cloud connection in order to work. Orders that come from point of sale systems could only talk to the kitchen display systems with an internet connection. This means that even in the same restaurant, disruptions to the internet meant that the entire restaurant would stop working. We hear this complaint from store operators all the time. Why is my modern technology more brittle than the system I had in 1995?
Flip van den Bosch and the team from Spont have addressed this challenge head-on by embedding Ditto into their point of sale system. With Ditto, their point of sale system is more resilient than ever, enabling wireless devices to connect peer-to-peer and share data without a server and without the internet.
“Ditto’s unique technology empowers our point of sale to stand out in an incredibly competitive market. Their support during the integration process was very professional and resourceful, supporting our team in finding the best design patterns for our use cases.”
