POS System for Franchise or Chain

Halo POS systems are custom made for franchise and chain organizations that want to seamlessly report on all their locations in real-time as well control menus, pricing and much more from one centralized location.

Halo defines what a Point of Sale (POS) program and corporate information collection solution should do; make your life easier and affordable! For years, the growing trend in the POS industry has been to do the exact opposite. Franchise and chain organizations have grown accustomed to an industry plagued with high prices, poor service, and unnecessary complexity. Halo web based POS is the alternative.

Halo VS. Traditional POS Solutions 
(i.e. Micros/Aloha/Digital Dining) 

50 – 80% less than traditional POS – Halo’s next generation technology reduces the cost of “enterprise management” substantially since all the franchise data resides in one location. Below is a price comparison of Halo vs. Traditional POS solutions for the chain/franchise organization.

Centralized Support – Through our centralized support and training center we can train our staff and maintain consistent processes in one place. In comparison, the traditional POS vendors struggle to maintain consistent training and support protocols in place due to their reseller/local support business model.

*Restaurant benchmarking – Vivonet is collecting the largest data warehouse of hospitality and retail transactions that allow restaurants to benchmark themselves against the market.

*Customer satisfaction - Halo can provide you the tools to understand what your customers think of your food, staff and environment at each of your restaurants.

*Unique to Vivonet. No other POS vendors have this capability.

As a Franchisor, you need to be aware of the costs associated with traditional POS. In addition to POS hardware, upgrades and POS support you will need to pay extra to Poll data from each location. Polling costs can add up quickly and you need to be prepared to pay for the following: polling hardware and database, polling corporate license rights, polling per store, and polling database management and support.
