All-in-one software solutions didn’t work before and aren’t going to work this time, Juan George, co-founder of 858 Partners, tells Bloomberg Intelligence. In this episode of the Choppin’ It Up podcast, George sits down with BI’s senior restaurant and foodservice analyst Michael Halen to discuss why modular, open systems that allow operators to innovate are the best option. He also gives advice on negotiating software-as-a-service (SaaS) contracts and comments on investments in AI, robotics, point-of-sale systems, customer data platforms and solutions to help control back-of-house spending.
