Situation

There is a tremendous shift underway in consumer spending and dining habits that is causing restaurant operators to respond to these changes with an enhanced level of nimbleness and agility. Restaurant operators are revamping their IT infrastructures and evaluating alternatives to optimize their current operations and provide the flexibility to adapt to the rapidly evolving business requirements.

The PAR EverServ QSR Suite is built on the Microsoft .NET framework, which supports visually stunning user experiences, seamless and secure communication, and the ability to model a range of business processes. Also, the EverServ QSR point-of-service software is optimized for use with the Windows Embedded POSReady2009 platform and has been tested on Windows Embedded POSReady 7, Microsoft’s next generation platform delivering the power of Windows 7 to point-of-service (POS) solutions.

POSReady 7 provides new and differentiated capabilities, such as advanced capabilities for IT to protect corporate data and enable cost effective security, which help underpin our restaurant POS software offerings.

Microsoft’s investment in retail-centric operating systems and development technologies continues to give us a powerful product foundation.

Our market and competitive opportunities are improved when we can focus our attention on driving new POS capabilities – while taking advantage of our advanced technical architecture.
