Industry Solutions: Hospitality

Today's restaurant, hotel and retail environments require speed, mobility and accuracy from their POS hardware solutions to enhance the overall customer experience. Using a portable touch screen Tablet PC from TabletKiosk as a mobile POS terminal provides the newest and most personal solution for processing credit card orders, inputting customer information, guest check-in, entering food and drink orders via wireless POS, updating housekeeping records, tracking casino wages and scheduling resort services.

Sahara Slate PC® Tablet PCs and eo™ UMPCs from TabletKiosk run full desktop versions of Microsoft® Windows® XP (Professional, Tablet PC Edition or Embedded), Windows Vista®, or even Linux and therefore can run all of the most popular hospitality and retail software solutions. These portable terminals offer a lightweight “carry-everywhere” hardware design with a 7” or 12” screen that replicates the full interface of the primary input terminal. This means that companies do not have to invest in expensive retraining to teach their staff to take orders wirelessly.

When integrated with an enterprise software solution and customized accessories — ranging from magnetic stripe readers to ruggedized bump cases — these compact Tablet PCs keep restaurant, hotel, casino and retail staff current and connected — wherever their work takes them.
