It's a real plus for every restaurant or hotel that manages in-house orders and reservation. Lightspeed facilitates the multi-property management and upgrade the restoration service to become way more efficient.
Lightspeed is a POS. The Lightspeed application is able to manage all the operational aspects of a restaurant: seating plan and customer orders, but also product and ingredient stocks, happy hours, take-out meals, deliveries. It also includes customer management functions.
Lightspeed provides a hospitality-focused point-of-sale solution that makes managing inventory, sales and analytics effective and efficient. The modern, cloud-based system is powerful and user-friendly, as we have heard from our mutual clients.
Lightspeed is a very complete and advanced POS system that fits in very well with the wishes and requirements of a restaurant, bar or other hospitality provider. The cloud-based POS system also ensures an even faster turnaround.
Question:
What differentiates this product or service from the competition?
Answer:
To me, this is THE reference in terms of POS. Lightspeed has a super ergonomic interface, easy to understand and manage. The connectivity with the other systems (PMS, Guest Relation Platform, etc.) is easy.

To me, this is THE reference in terms of POS. Lightspeed has a super ergonomic interface, easy to understand and manage. The connectivity with the other systems (PMS, Guest Relation Platform, etc.) is easy.
Their customer service and a huge help center : we have heard great feedback! Also their interface : they designed a user-experience first solution that anyone in your team can use. And last, they currently cover over 50 different integrations.
With Lightspeed, hoteliers get a solution that is designed for hospitality businesses. The innovative, scalable system can manage multiple locations and helps keep businesses current and efficient with modern features such as an iPad POS system, self-order menu and contactless payments. Lightspeed integrates with the hotel PMS to seamlessly add restaurant charges to the guest's room.
The fact that Lightspeed offers a cloud-based solution, even in the event of an internet failure, continues to function in an offline mode and offers very extensive financial reports, ensures that they distinguish themselves in the market.
Question:
Based on your experience with this product or service, if you could give one piece of advice to a hotelier considering this product or service, what would it be?
Answer:
If you have a lot of different systems and if you manage many properties at the same time, this product is made for you ! This the go-to solution if you want to increase your Food and Beverage team's efficiency.

Consider the following factors when choosing a POS partner : security, adaptability, cost, flexibility, and customer support. You can check other players, but if you need a multi-property management POS, this is the number one we recommend. To start, ask for a demo.
Speaking from experience, the team at Lightspeed makes a great partner. During our initial integration and since, we've found Lightspeed's development team to be responsive and knowledgeable, and the company is obviously committed to the success of their clients. Lightspeed offers seamless integration with PMS solutions, fully automating the process of posting restaurant orders to room reservation folios for easy and accurate billing.
Given the pleasant cooperation between RoomRaccoon and Lightspeed, I certainly recommend hotels that need a complete POS to make use of the products and services of Lightspeed. The connectivity between our PMS system and the POS system provides a complete solution for every hotelier.
