Pre-Shift by SevenRooms putting the customer first

SevenRooms, a global guest experience and retention platform for the hospitality industry, has released a new product feature, Pre-Shift, providing operators with key shift details they can leverage to inform and lead pre-service meetings. Pre-Shift is built to simplify pre-service meetings for restaurant operators and their staff around the world.

Operators are given a real-time, unified view of everything they need ahead of each shift, saving employees time with an out-of-the-box informational report. Instead of paper printouts and laborious briefing forms, Pre-Shift allows teams to harness rich customer data with up-to-the-minute information on every guest.

With ongoing labour shortages, PreShift can act as a tool to help operators with administrative tasks, like pulling guest and reservation data, to optimise a team’s pre-shift meeting ahead of service with all stakeholders.

By incorporating this tool, staff can utilise SevenRooms’ rich data and Auto-Tags to educate themselves on incoming guests. It highlights valuable insights such as allergy information, dining preferences, previous experiences with the restaurant and positive/ negative reviews. It also provides a quick snapshot of that day’s notes on menu specials, private events or special requests. The focus is on keeping up with diner expectations as they evolve.

Pre-Shift helps restaurants deliver personalised hospitality at scale with invisible technology. Guest and reservation data can be accessed on the fly, without double clicks or additional navigation via iPhone and iPads.

“The magic of SevenRooms is in the way that we’re able to serve up relevant guest information to restaurants at key points of service. Our new Pre-shift view takes that magic one step further by strategically aggregating the most important insights before service even begins,” said Allison Page, co-founder & chief product officer at SevenRooms.
