But, aren't KDS and POS the same?
While POS can be considered the overall boss, it cannot substitute KDS to improve your kitchen's operations. Here is the fundamental difference between the two:
KDS
- A kitchen order display system, or KDS, is used for speeding up the kitchen operations in a restaurant
- A KDS system is important for easing the pressure on the kitchen staff, as well as improving the communication between the front-of-house and back-of-house staff
- Kitchen display systems help the back-of-house (BOH) staff, such as chefs, cooks, and other kitchen staff to view the orders, prioritize the menu items for preparation, and prepare the meals
POS
- A Restaurant POS software is used to simplify daily restaurant operations across various modules such as accounting, inventory, sales, billing, table customer relationship management
- A Restaurant POS software is essential to optimize the complete business performance of a restaurant
- A POS system is useful for the front-of-house (FOH) staff, such as stewards, wait staff, managers etc. It helps the FOH staff take and edit orders, settle bills, and provide offers and discounts
