Customers who use Host
We've gained access to valuable insights like GLV, which enable us to not only customize the dining experience but also to tailor our culinary innovation and growth to the preferences and desires of our guests. That's a huge unlock.
In the past, we had to rely on keyboard shortcuts and other workarounds to manage our waitlist. Olo Host does tedious tasks like marking no-shows and manually texting guests so we can focus on the guest experience.
Olo has nearly single-handedly changed the game in our restaurant group. Their Host solution has supercharged our ability to run our dining rooms. It’s the first and only technology our staff has been excited to use.
