A restaurant table management system is a software tool that helps restaurant owners and staff optimise their floor plan, maximise covers and seat guests more efficiently. Restaurants can integrate their table management systems with their restaurant operations tools like their POS system to improve customer service and drive the revenue.
Now Book It provides a fully integrated reservation, seating and restaurant management software that puts you in control of your guest journey and offers direct, commission-free covers.
Restaurants use technology like point of sale (POS) systems, reservation platforms, table management solutions, waitlist apps, contactless order and pay systems, online payment processors, online ordering systems, and more tools across the restaurant tech stack.
Smart restaurant systems use automation, AI, and predictive analytics to reduce manual work, improve customer service, and drive more business.

Now Book It offers integrations with 40+ of the most popular restaurant POS systems, including Square, Tyro, Bepoz, Lightspeed and more.
