Looking for the proven leader in 
Table Management Software?

Look no more.  You've found it here!


Introducing ProHost, used in the finest Restaurants, Resorts, Hotels and Casinos around the world.  ProHost table service management is a powerful tool that will help coordinate and streamline every facet of your operation to get more customers seated, served and satisfied. You'll not only please your guests, you'll be able to please a greater number of them.  ProHost helps you turn more tables, more often, which means turning higher profits.  

For restaurants taking advanced reservations, be sure to take a look at RSViP, a restaurant reservation management software that fully integrates into ProHost.

 

Determine the status of a table on your floor plan . . . at a glance.


Do you know which tables are occupied and how long they've been seated, when they leave, when the table is clean and how long it's been idle while you are on a wait?

Does the host know which server is due the next hit?  Are you getting the maximum seating utilization out of your table inventory?

Is your manager notified about large parties, slow table turns, when you're on a wait, customers exceeding quoted wait times?

Is your greeter turning away customers by giving out false wait times?

Find out how ProHost can help address these issues and much more by providing the critical information needed to efficiently greet and seat your guests, which can help you to become more profitable.

 

The Only Table Management Solution That Accurately
Quotes Wait Times Using AccuQuote
Technology

Add a party to the wait list using the Greetings window.

 You can immediately indicate the party size and preferences, plus provide an accurate wait time quote . . .

ProHost can automatically learn your table turn times thereby providing very accurate computer generated wait times for your hostess to quote to your guests.

 

Manage The Wait List

  • Automate the wait list.
    When the greeter enters the customer's name and pager number into the computer wait list, ProHost immediately passes the information to the hostess stand. Wait times are accurate because they're based on the status of the dining room, the actual speed of service, and the number of names already on the wait list. Guests appreciate fact-based estimates instead of guesswork.
     
  • Display waiting party names.
    Through use of a monitor, you can display the ProHost wait list to let the guests see their status. Displaying the wait list assures your guests that the wait process is fair and reduces the "How much longer" questions that tie up your hostess.
     
  • Pass names automatically from the greeter to the hostess.
    Pass names and pager numbers automatically from the greeter to the hostess. Eliminate paper passing, reducing the time required to manage the wait list. Let your greeter and hostess spend time talking with customers, not each other.
     
  • Notify the hostess when a guest has waited too long.
    When a waiting guest is approaching or has exceeded the quoted waiting time (by a predefined amount of time), ProHost can automatically make the party name to start flashing on the wait list.  This feature can help increase customer satisfaction when personally attended to in this circumstance.



Focus on all you need to know about one party by selecting the details button. Party details include name, size, preferences, status, arrival time, and more . . .

 

Turn Tables Faster & Reduce Clean Table Idle Time

Let ProHost Page Your Customers When Their Table Is Ready

  • ProHost will pull the correct guest from the wait list and begin to page them
     

  • Your guest's name will begin to blink on the clean table for fast seating when they approach the hostess with their pager.

Select The Right Table

  • Block tables for large parties.

Automatically notify the hostess that a large party or reservation requires tables to be blocked for seating. Block occupied tables to prevent being seated by other parties as they open up for seating. Display table occupied times in order to make the best decision. Reduce large party errors and time required for management by the hostess.

  • Notify the hostess immediately of open tables.

Eliminate time required for table checks by seaters, increasing time to seat guests. Eliminate the time required for the seaters to communicate open tables to the hostess, giving more time with guests to seaters and the job of seating guests to the hostess. Multiple options are available for open table notification.

  • Match a waiting party with an open table automatically.

Eliminate the time required to pick a party with the right size and smoking preference from the paper list to seat at an open table. ProHost automatically selects the best party from the wait list, maximizing seat utilization, and notifies the hostess with flashing table numbers. This allows more time for the hostess to concentrate on greeting and seating guests.

  • View multiple areas in the restaurant.

You can segment your restaurant into areas. For example, if you have a patio, or upstairs, or a private dining room, you can separate the areas. You can have multiple terminals running simultaneously on different floors, separate entrances, and different restaurants in the same facility, etc.

  • Know immediately when the party receives their check.
