1 - Answer the orders in order


Are you ready to say goodbye to all your terminals?

Order Manager is the RusHour tool that will simplify your order processing. Our solution is linked to the POS system and delivery applications, and aggregates all orders in one place. You can click here to see the complete list of all our integration partners.


When you run out of a particular ingredient, or cannot fulfill an order, mark the corresponding item as unavailable on your online menus. Respond to another order, and the delivery app's courier will be notified. Now all you have to do is watch your online and offline orders line up on a single dashboard.


You will have access to a really professional interface. RusHour has been designed to give you the feeling of having a very powerful tool. You can see how the operations are going, your current sales, what you can do to sell more, ...


2 - Update and manage your menus through the platforms


The Menu Manager feature brings together all your online menus, regardless of address, brands, and platforms, in one place. This makes it easy to make changes to your menu. You can update them, change prices, mark ingredients as unavailable with just one click. You can also edit your categories to change either individual items or entire categories.


For example, let's say a particular menu was in high demand on delivery platforms. You can reorganize your menus by moving it from last to first place. On the other hand, if an ingredient is shunned by consumers, you can move it to the bottom of your list or deactivate it. If an ingredient or a particular category is seeing a surge in orders at a particular time of the week (e.g. cocktails on the weekend) you can rearrange your menus so that drinks appear before food. How convenient is that?


You may also need to change your restaurant's schedule due to a rush, vacations or unforeseen circumstances. You can do all this from the RusHour solution.


Want more? You can edit several menus for one address. You can edit special menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, ... And all this directly from the Business Manager.


As you can see, you have everything to gain! The installation is very easy, and you can gather all your orders in one place. It makes your life easier, which is not insignificant when you have such a stressful job! Being able to organize all incoming orders, view prep time, and more, from one interface, is a real benefit that all restaurants should be able to enjoy.


3 - Be better placed on delivery platforms


80% of customers order their meal from the homepage of their delivery platform. That means if your restaurant isn't well positioned, you're missing out on sales.


There is no magic formula to be on top on delivery platforms. That said, several criteria such as speed, reviews, service, promotions or conversion can play into your restaurant's positioning on apps.


RusHour boosts your speed, efficiency, and order fulfillment. Automatic acceptance and ticket printing features in Order Manager prevent you from missing orders. You don't waste time and stay visible on delivery applications.


Running promotions can boost your position on delivery apps. But do your promotions impact your positioning? Go to the Insights in Business Manager to see the real impact of your promotions.


See what kind of promotions improve your sales with our figures, such as net take-home or ROI promotions. Compare your order volume with and without promotions. Use this data to stop wasting money and launch promotions that really work and boost your restaurant's positioning. 

4 - Check what works and what doesn't


Data is useless to you if you don't have the ability to take actions that make sense for your restaurant. It's finally time to say goodbye to countless spreadsheets, missing data and CSV files!


You get a 360-degree view of your restaurant's performance from a single dashboard. Simply go to the Insight tab in your Business Manager to track your sales hour by hour. You get performance filters by platform, sales, addresses, ingredients and more!


Check your order release rate and the type of order releases. What time of day do you have the most problems? What day of the week? Are you experiencing revenue loss? Find out your strengths and weaknesses. 


You will be able to access this data for the duration of your free trial. You can even download and print your reports for added flexibility.
