The effectiveness of your digital menu boards depend heavily on the type of digital menu board software you use. If your digital menu boards are created and deployed correctly, they can help you maximize your sales while improving the customer experience.
Below are 7 important factors you should look for when choosing your digital menu board software:
1. Cloud-Based Digital Menu Board Software
It’s important for your digital menu board software to be cloud-based, which means the software is accessed and managed via the Internet. This allows you to remotely manage and update your digital menu boards from anywhere with Internet access.
2. Customized Menu Designs
A good menu design is key to a restaurant’s success. Your menu should express your restaurant’s personality, focus on your business goals, and entice your customers. Your digital menu board software provider should have in-house designers that can help you design professional, eye-catching and easy-to-read menus that are customized to your restaurant’s brand and menu items.
3. Promotional Templates
An effective digital menu board software should give you the ability to run various promotions that boost sales. You should be able to highlight your best-selling items and high-margin items, and run limited time offers (LTO) with ease.
4. Ease-of-Use
Your digital menu board software must have an intuitive and easy-to-use interface. Making price changes, adding new menu items and adding promotions to your digital menu boards should be as simple as point, click and edit.
5. Scalable Solution
Your digital menu board software should allow you to manage one to thousands of digital menu boards from a central location. If you are a franchise in the food and beverage industry, it’s crucial that your digital menu board software can quickly and easily scale as you expand your business nationally and globally.
6. Menu Scheduling
Your digital menu board software should have the ability to pre-schedule your different menus to display at specific dates and times. For example, you should be able to schedule your breakfast menu to display from 8AM-11AM, and schedule your lunch menu to automatically display from 11AM-4PM. The scheduling interface in your digital menu board software should be straightforward and easy for non-technical users to manage.
7. Dedicated Technical Support and Training
Since your restaurant’s daily operations rely heavily on your menu boards, you need to make sure that your digital menu board software provider offers full training and live phone support after your digital menu boards are deployed. The training will ensure that you understand and leverage all the features of your digital menu board solution. The live phone support will ensure your digital menu boards are up and running at all times, even during unforeseen situations.
