Lightspeed Commerce Inc. introduces the new 'Smart Items' feature, which is designed to automate tedious tasks in the retail and restaurant service industries. This tool streamlines menu management, potentially saving valuable time – up to 30 minutes per 100-item menu. Businesses that start their journey from scratch can potentially save hours or even days with this new tool.
Moreover, Lightspeed's proprietary 'Advanced Insights' tool receives a robust upgrade featuring the 'Magic Menu Quadrant' empowers merchants with insights into popular items and those that foster repeat patronage. Additionally, the 'Staff Performance' tools help businesses optimize their front-of-house teams and facilitate increased order sizes and streamlined cross-training.
"Implementing NuORDER Assortments meant more accurate roll-ups and a clear process to write smarter buys," Stephanie Gin, director of Buying at Brunello Cucinelli, said in the release. "We now get an immediate visual of the assortment thus making it much easier to analyze and review. The tool has replaced all manual processes and has become essential to our buying process."
