Platform’s ease of use ideal for ringing up truck sales, managing
catering events
When taking over a 40-year-old Philadelphia restaurant and ice cream
bar, Dalton Castano looked for a point-of-sale (POS) system that would
quickly place orders and efficiently capture sales and inventory.
Castano, who at the time was a young entrepreneur, also needed a
solution that didn’t require an upfront investment.
He chose NCR
SilverTM, a mobile POS
system, because of its low monthly fee and ease of use. The simplicity
of the solution allows Castano and his business partner to focus on
growing and modernizing their restaurant - More Than Just Ice Cream –
not dealing with slow, inefficient technology.
“When we took over the restaurant, we were still using an old, slow
manual register,” said Castano. “We needed to upgrade to a faster
point-of-sale system, but didn’t want to invest a lot in technology. We
also didn’t need all the bells and whistles that would be overly
complicated to use and expensive to maintain, so NCR Silver was a
perfect match for our needs.”
Castano joined the More Than Just Ice Cream team 15 years ago and held
various roles – from ice cream scooper to server – before becoming
manager. He and his business partner, another long-time More Than Just
Ice Cream employee, wanted to modernize the restaurant while maintaining
its “laid-back vibe.”
“Dalton personifies the entrepreneur that NCR Small Business serves
every day – the ambitious business owner who wants to focus on
profitability and growth,” said Chris Poelma, president and general
manager of NCR Small Business. “Restaurants, in particular, need a
technology partner that can provide around-the-clock support and help
them tackle IT challenges in a way that doesn’t impact customer service
or revenue.”
Using NCR Silver has improved efficiency at the Philadelphia eatery and
provided the restaurant with a more contemporary, up-to-date image.
“NCR Silver has helped us achieve our business goals,” Castano said. “In
the future, we hope to take advantage of more of the solution’s
available features, including its customer loyalty functionality and
alternative payments options, such as Apple PayTM, to further
enhance the customer experience.”
