      Good to know. I don't know if I'll ever need it - but - it could come up in conversation down the road.

      Not a problem,
      this is the first time i have information to share LOL

        While I don't have anything I can really contribute on applications, I would expect that you would want something that will pair both the hotel and restaurant into the same app. And - will something 'separate' be needed if alcohol is sold? Don't know if that is a separate thing or not.

        Alcohol is all the same for us. Just another product.

          I don't think there's an all in one solution for Hotels and Restaurants. But Almost all of them will pair with some kind of Payment Management System to allow cross over to the Hotel side.

          I'm not sure how much we need for the hotel other than being able to take payments through it. We have a SaaS app that manages the hotel portion already.

            Are there enforced liquor laws where you're at now?

                Nope. 24x7, sell to basically anyone.

                  You mean a country that treats people as adults that can think for themselves. That's a great concept, we should try more of that here in the USA.

                    I've 'programmed' thousands of alcoholic drinks, different liquors, shots etc. into Aloha Systems

                    If you have to develop code to add drinks into their systems, I'd rather not use the tool. That seems so over the top. Do they support a lot of languages? Seems limiting.

                      It's not actual programming code that's why i used the 'programming' as that is what it is called in the field.
                      Really it's just data entry of products, adding items through the GUI.

                        That kind of reminds me of "programming printers"

                              Have you had a look at IdealPOS and Kounta (apparently now Lightspeed)?

                                            I use RevelPOS our retail business. Had it for about 7 years now. It’s ok. Uses iPads.

                                            I’d probably do Clover if I had to do it over again but it’s too much of a PITA to switch now.
