Burger King has chosen Qlik, a US-based software as a service (SaaS) company, to improve its customer service and restaurant efficiency.
The hamburger chain will deploy Qlik Sense software across all point-of-sale (POS) databases at its restaurants in Russia.
Burger King Russia information technology department deputy head Pavel Vasilyev said: “As a business, we identified three areas we needed to address.
“First was a way to quickly respond and correct issues that affect our restaurant efficiency and customer service. Second is to allow management to provide detailed daily reports to relevant staff.
“And third is to have a single source of truth from all our data sources. Partnering with Qlik has enabled us to address all these needs, and we are already seeing great results from using Qlik.”
The new technology will help in viewing real-time restaurant performance indicators and allow suitable adjustments to be made in case of complaints or negative feedback.
