Our Approach – Ground up or existing establishment
How do we do this? It is a PROCESS:
Assess Your Current Situation
Our goal is to be much more than just your POS vendor. We want to help you get everything you can from all your restaurant technology. This means providing not only the best in hardware and software (in POS and beyond), but making sure everything is set up optimally, you and your staff are trained properly and, most of all, you apply these powerful tools in the most effective way. We’ll make sure you are finding more time and greater profits while keeping tech stress and headaches to a minimum.
Create a Technology Plan
Perform System Setup & Installation
Comprehensive Training
The best technology in the world is no good unless it’s used properly. We offer 90 days complimentary support for newly installed systems to ensure you are completely comfortable with your new POS system.
Manager/Owner Training
We cover all the system’s functionality and workflow from the perspective of everyday. You will be guided through the processes of entering items, price changes, making menu changes, adding new employees, and most importantly, running and understanding the reports for accountability, and everything in between. We ensure that they have the tools they need to handle their daily operations.
Staff Training
We cover all the system’s functionality and workflow from the perspective of the everyday end-user. Your staff will be guided through the processes of entering items, collecting payments, voiding orders and everything in between. We ensure that they have the tools they need to handle their daily operations.
Go-live and On-site Support
All of us here at CTSG understands that transitioning to a new POS system can be a stressful experience, but we are here to provide you with quality service you can depend on. After your POS installation, we offer on-site support to assist with your daily operations and take care of any system modifications needed to improve your workflow. Our goal is to reduce stress so that you are able to focus on the more important things, like your customers and their overall restaurant experience.
Dedicated Support
To protect your investments, Creative Technology Services Group offers on-site and live remote POS support, and repair services.
Helpdesk
CTSG offers live phone and remote support 7 days a week from 9am to 12 Midnight. When you call, you will be connected to one of our experienced helpdesk technicians. All of our technicians have received extensive training on the Focus software and all hardware we provide. Once your challenge has been established, your technician will walk you step by step to reach a resolution. The CTSG helpdesk will be able to remotely access your software and guide you through whatever challenges you may face, whether it is a refresh on training or trouble shooting, we can easily communicate and implement a solution.
On-site Services
Available Monday – Friday 9am – 5pm, (except Holidays) Weekend and after-hours support is available on an EMERGENCY basis, our on-site services are designed to give you piece of mind. Our technicians have extensive hands-on experience with your hardware and software, giving them the ability to diagnose challenges and come to a quick and efficient resolution. Whether it is training, hardware support or on-site troubleshooting, we offer a variety of services to keep your business functioning when you need it most.
Repair Services
CTSG is dedicated to keeping your business as functional as the day it was installed. If you run in to any challenge with your hardware, we can help. We offer a full list of repair services either on-site or in our office for all hardware we install. We also carry a full line of “loaner” equipment to keep your business functioning as usual while your hardware is being repaired.
Engagement is always Ongoing
Our help doesn’t end with the installation, training and occasional support. We intend to make sure you are getting all you can from your technology and your restaurant management system.
Service Agreements and Warranties:
Creative Technology Services Group warrants every system we sell for a full year from the date of installation, with exceptions during normal business hours. We also provide like-kind “loaner” equipment in the event your equipment must be removed from your establishment for repair.
Our partner suppliers provide several reasons for considering a Service Agreement: “Your POS system is a critical part of running your business, and if you have an issue with hardware or software and need immediate service and support, your provider is NOT obligated to perform the required service and support unless you have a Service Agreement.”
Creative Technology offers a Service Agreement beyond your warranty period to cover you for just this type of situation. Our service agreement extends your warranty for a period of 1 year and can be purchased on an annual or semi-annual basis. Monthly payments can be offered via recurring debit of credit card or ACH. Contact us for specific pricing and details of the agreement.
Or, pay as you go: Creative Technology Services Group wants to ensure everyone can get services as they need them regardless if they don’t have a service agreement or warranty. In these cases, just pay as the service is provided. (see rates below)
