Frequently Asked Questions

What is restaurant franchise management software?

On the whole, our restaurant management system gives you the ability to collect and analyze information from multiple sources, providing you with the data you need to make the most informed decisions.

Given how slim profit margins typically are for QSR franchises, it’s critical to have a streamlined platform that can simplify as many processes as possible. By integrating with tools you already use, our platform makes managing multiple aspects of your business faster and easier so you can focus on improving service and growing your operations.

One of the biggest challenges franchisees face is combing through their systems data and finding their biggest opportunities to increase profits and maximize operational efficiencies. With our powerful franchise business intelligence software, you can stop worrying about how to drill down into your data and gain the insights you need right at your fingertips—Fast!

PAR OPS Coach collects your operational data across all your various business systems and presents it to you in a single, easy-to-read dashboard that’s always being updated in real time. Say goodbye to the tedious work of updating spreadsheets — everything you need to know is available at a glance. With over 150 integrations to existing QSR vendor systems and the ability to fully configure your dashboard to your specific organizational needs.

Highly! With PAR OPS Coach, you can easily compare key performance metrics like sales, labor, food cost, guest experience, and more! Dashboards are tailored for each level of your organization, and you can determine what team members see. Wanting to include a unique metric? Let’s talk about it! Some of our best features come from client requests!

Data sources include, but are not limited to POS, BOH, VOC, Drive Thru Timers, camera systems, kiosk, schedules, inventory, 3rd Party delivery and more. 

Coach is designed to support field operations by focusing on addressing their most urgent & high priority needs first. The operations hierarchy, threshold, and outlier management features allow operators to identify their top and worst performances based on their sphere of control – giving the right data to the right people at the right time. 

Coach AI

Is Coach AI meant to replace people?

Absolutely not. Coach AI is designed to support, not replace, human leaders by automating manual data tasks and delivering instant insights. This lets operators focus on higher-value work like training staff and enhancing the guest experience.

Coach AI is not offered as a standalone product. It is an enhancement to the Coach module, leveraging the module’s data and functionality to deliver its intelligent AI-driven responses and recommendations. Because Coach AI depends on the underlying Coach module, it cannot be purchased separately.

If you can do a Google search, you can use Coach AI. Simply ask questions in everyday language to get instant answers with charts, insights, and next steps. Plus, drag-and-drop dashboards and customizable metrics make the interface intuitive for everyone.
