Q: Do I need a local server within the restaurant?
A: Yes. Posnet's system comes with a local server in the restaurant while keeping the same information on the hosted internet servers. The local server synchronizes with the remote hosted servers every 5 minutes. The restaurant does not depend on the internet to function and the operation is fast because it is done on the local server. If the local server fails, the terminals are redirected to work with the remote hosted server, eliminating any downtime in the store.
