Sweet Updates to Sapphire from Khamu Systems

Always good to spend some time chatting with the folks at Khamu specific to their Sapphire hospitality point of sale system! As a former restaurant manager, I really enjoying working with folks who understand how restaurants work.  Because of my past background working with MICROS/Oracle and QuickPOS/NextPOS/Adelo, I've really found that the folks at Khamu know how to deliver an awesome POS system without the expense of other POS systems like Digital Dining, Aloha, and MICROS/Oracle.  In fact, I've never had a single complaint from anyone who purchased Sapphire!

On to the "sweet" list of recent upgrades to the Sapphire point of sale software from Khamu:
  • Refreshed User Interface
  • Ability to include menu images
  • Self ordering kiosk (wow!!!)
  • Include kitchen notes
  • Variable purchase options - including paying a monthly subscription fee
Down the road will be even more enhancements like various third party integrations.

Visit https://www.khamu.com/ for more information on Sapphire.

2017 Retail Realm Conference News

A few highlights out of last weeks Retail Realm Conference. Lots of great things happening but do note that just about everything is subject to change!

  • Microsoft is working on a retail specific solution within the Dynamics family (eg: AX and D365)
  • Work on Retail Management Hero (RMH) Central continues. Initial release should be in late spring or summer 2018. Much easier to use when compared to RMS HQ (few to no worksheets) and also web based syncing. Pricing for RMH Central is tentatively set at $360/year per user and $360/year per store.
  • iPad version of RMH was shown - requires (for now) that Shift4 be used for merchant services.
A quick reminder that http://rmhpos.com/marketplace/ is updated regularly as new add-ons become available for the Retail Management Hero point of sale software.

Please do call (208-340-5632) or email me (kevinantosh@gmail.com) with any retail point of sale related questions.
