CentralPlanner - everything you need, easy to use, reliable and secure, and usable from anywhere - what more could you want from a reservation system?
CentralPlanner sold us from the very first second: Quickly and easily set up and integrated into our website, the first reservations were received a short time later. The great thing about it is that the entire reservation process is automated, if you want it to be: displaying free play times in a clear online calendar, accepting reservations, sending reservation confirmations, etc. We save so much valuable processing time, which we can now use to take care of the customers playing with us thanks to CentralPlanner.
A classic reservation book for restaurants can be found in the restaurant at the counter and a copy may be in the office. In between, the second book must be updated and the reservations transferred again and again. A reservation system puts an end to this. Every reservation that is entered can be retrieved simultaneously from any location and device. This saves time and money.
Optionally, you can also allow guests to book online directly through your website or Facebook page. Confirm reservations manually if desired or have some of your tables assigned automatically by the system. Incoming reservations are free of charge for you and the guest.
More service for your guest, less work for you!
For restaurateurs, reservations build the baseline for many daily routines. Be it planning staff, purchasing food and beverages and many more. With a number of reservations, each day can be planned and foreseen much better. Our reservations software smoothly integrates into your day and daily routines. As CentralPlanner is a cloud software, you and your staff may access all reservations data from any device such as iPads, iPhone or regular computers. That makes it easy for you to accept and enter new reservations, no matter where you're when the reservation comes in. You may store all relevant data and immediately confirm a reservation request to you guest. In the end CentralPlanner helps you keep organized and on top of the reservations of one particular day. No more outdated reservations, no more coffee on top of the guests name. CentralPlanner purely helps managing reservations.
Do you plan your tables each day by allocating guests to single tables? CentralPlanner helps you to automate this step, by simply proposing an available table right when you're accepting or entering the reservation. You might set up a priority among your tables and CentralPlanner will automatically suggest the available table with the highest priority where you can host the number of guests behind the reservation. You see, managing reservations with CentralPlanner is not only about a list of reservations but also about saving valuable time and hence money.
Doing business, one key aspect is good contact management. Therefore CentralPlanner stores the person behind each reservation for future reference and in order to directly recognize regular guests. Having a complete register of all your prior guests is then used to propose existing contacts when entering a reservation. The more regular guests you facilitate, the more time you will save when accepting reservations because CentralPlanner helps you to quickly recognize those regular guests while entering an reservation. Furthermore our reservationsbook encourages you to collect valuable information about any of you guests, so you may use these information during the next visit.
You know how hard it is to win new customers. It's much easier to work with a huge number of regular, recurring customers after you won and convinced them. By using CentralPlanner it gets way easier to build long-lasting relationships with your customers and that's one of the most important aspects in gastronomy.
Guess what - as CentralPlanner is an online service anyway, taking online reservations is just like a breeze.
