Revel Systems partnered with Canopy to manage their complex POS infrastructure across 20,000 restaurants. Canopy's streamlined updates and autonomous troubleshooting drastically reduced customer support tickets and doubled the speed of software upgrades, significantly improving Revel's operations and customer satisfaction.
Revel oversees more than 50,000 point-of-sale systems, deployed across 20,000 restaurant locations. Their cloud-based POS system enables restaurants to accept payments across device types, enhancing customer experience and diversifying revenue streams.
Revel needed a way to manage complex POS systems—encompassing hardware, software, firmware, and peripheral devices—across thousands of restaurant locations. Restaurants expressed a need for robust technical support, a crucial requirement given the limited IT resources of restaurant operators. Revel sought a centralized platform for monitoring and managing POS systems to facilitate software upgrades, troubleshoot issues, and avert outages.
"Quick-service restaurant operators typically have a lean corporate team and often don't have a dedicated IT resource. So, managing a growing technology suite across multiple locations is something we look to offer."
Revel’s standard POS solution consisted of a Linux based controller (called the ‘Revel Guard’), an Apple or Android based tablet, credit card readers, receipt printers, and their proprietary software application. Together all these components delivered a leading cloud-based POS system for customers. Canopy provided Revel with a unified view of devices at the store level and the ability to remotely manage their entire asset fleet. Canopy was designed to initiate actions and alerts, resolving detected issues autonomously to expedite resolution and enhance the customer experience.
"We have thousands of devices deployed across very complex and different environments. We have Apple and Android devices, Linux controllers, payment terminals, printers, etc. We needed a single platform with central visibility and management of all the components inside our solution."
Product and technical support teams use Canopy to automate remote device management for self-checkout kiosks, POS systems, cameras, smart lockers, and hundreds of other connected products.
