COLUMBIA, Md., March 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- MICROS
Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCRS), a leading provider of information
technology solutions for the hospitality and retail industries, is
pleased to announce that Salsarita's Fresh Cantina, a Mexican fast
casual concept, has selected MICROS Simphony Enterprise Solution
for all corporate locations. In conjunction with Simphony
Point-of-Sale (POS), Salsarita's is deploying MICROS Simphony's
Reporting, Labor, Inventory, Loyalty, and Online Ordering modules.
The solution is hosted in the MICROS Data Center.
After a year-long evaluation process, Salsarita's selected
MICROS Simphony due to its cloud platform. With a single
centralized database, Salsarita's will benefit from standardization
across all locations, as well as enterprise management of the
database and a single-source solution for loyalty, gift, customer
relationship management, inventory management, online ordering, and
labor management. With these MICROS solutions, Salsarita's can
focus on guest relationships and satisfaction, instead of managing
a POS system.
Simphony is built upon a web services architecture that enables
easy system growth and deployment. It offers a highly scalable and
flexible configuration that is capable of operating in a single
site or an enterprise of thousands of sites, and easily interfaces
to third-party peripheral equipment and software. With a complete
set of reporting, auditing, and analytics tools, Simphony is
designed to deliver the information necessary to efficiently
operate a business in real time.
"We have a very aggressive growth strategy in place for the next
three to five years, and we feel very strongly that MICROS Simphony
is the next generation solution that can support our rapid
expansion," stated Phil Friedman,
CEO of Salsarita's. "Maintaining a centralized enterprise solution,
comprising point of sale, loyalty, inventory, online ordering, and
labor management, will allow our restaurants and franchisees to
focus on providing a great dining experience instead of the
day-to-day operational requirements."
"MICROS Simphony's superior service-oriented architecture (SOA),
scalability, resiliency, and streamlined integration are critical
to foster Salsarita's aggressive growth strategy," stated
Ed Chapel, Executive Vice President,
US & Canada - Food &
Beverage for MICROS Systems, Inc. "Simphony provides
Salsarita's a centralized, enterprise system with standardized
reporting and advanced management controls to increase operational
efficiencies. Deploying Simphony in an enterprise model also
reduces Salsarita's total cost of ownership by eliminating the need
for back-office computers, on-site software maintenance and
technical support required by legacy on-premise POS systems."
