Maitre’d Kitchen Video System by Smart POS provides more efficiency and saves money

Kitchen Display Systems (KDS) have become staples in many casual, quick and fine dining restaurants, and it’s easy to see why.

Systems like the Maitre’d color video monitor (CVM) by Smart POS can enhance productivity and efficiency not just in the kitchen, but throughout an entire restaurant.

If you’re still unsure of what makes Kitchen Display Systems the better choice than kitchen printers, here are some key points to consider:

1. First, KDS have a lower total cost of ownership than printers. Think of all the money you’re spending on paper and ribbons for your printer each year. With the Kitchen Display System, you pay for the license and monitors up-front, there are no recurring costs.
2. Secondly, a KDS eliminates the confusion that can come with printers. It’s easy for orders to get lost in the shuffle when kitchen staff is forced to look through a jumble of order slips. When orders are entered into the  system, they are organized and displayed clearly on a computer screen.
3. Finally using the Maitre’d Kitchen Display System by Smart POS will ensure you are doing your part for the environment by not using printers in the kitchen.
