Test the direct ordering experience

Fleksa offers direct online ordering. Decide whether the ordering flow can represent your menu accurately and give staff enough information to fulfill an order. Ask for a demonstration, then place a test order with an item modification and check how it appears to both the guest and the team.

Check POS permissions and daily tasks

Fleksa offers a restaurant POS. When comparing systems, consider which staff members need access to sales, refunds, and reports. In a demonstration, create two sample staff roles and try a transaction and a refund with each; confirm which permission settings are available on your plan.

Review the website as a guest would

Fleksa offers restaurant websites. Decide who will maintain your menu, hours, and contact details, and ask what changes your team can make directly. On a phone, find the menu and ordering entry point, then request a sample hours change to see how the update process works.

Walk through a reservation change

Fleksa offers reservations. For a new restaurant preparing staff roles, the key decision is whether the reservation workflow matches how the team will manage bookings. In a demonstration, make a sample reservation, change its party size, and ask how staff can view and update it.

Clarify delivery responsibilities

If you plan to offer delivery, decide whether your own team or a third party will handle fulfillment. Ask each provider what delivery options and integrations are available for your location and plan; do not assume they are included. Use a sample order to trace who receives it, who dispatches it, and how staff would handle a delivery problem.

Follow an order into the kitchen

Fleksa offers kitchen workflows, with service and integrations varying by market and plan. Decide what information cooks and front-of-house staff need at each step. In a demonstration, send a sample order with a modification through the workflow and check that the team can identify the item and its instructions.

Evaluate AI tools separately

If a provider proposes AI tools for website creation or updates, ask exactly what they do and who can review and edit the results. As a test, provide a short sample menu and check any generated text against it for accuracy before considering publication.
