A reservation system that belongs to you. Not one you belong to.

The booking button is the smallest part. The house runs on what sits behind it:

• Widget on your own site - your domain, your brand, no drop-off to the portal.
• A table plan that mirrors your house: stations, shift models, groups, booking stop.
• Walk-ins and real-time availability - what is booked online is reflected in service immediately.
• No-show handling: reminder, confirmation, release. Every prevented no-show saves around 70 % of the seat's value (OpenTable Show-Up Data; GroupMenus Deposit Benchmarks).
• Operations dashboards: occupancy, shifts, capacity - so staff does not stand around for empty chairs.
• Your own data: guests, history, preferences - with you, GDPR-clean, hosting where you choose.

The new system runs in parallel with the old one, historical reservations are migrated, then the cut-over happens on a set day. At Stiftskulinarium St. Peter, Quandoo was replaced exactly like that in live operation - without a single evening of downtime. That is proven, not theoretical.

A portal costs per reservation, an own system once plus hosting. The threshold lies in booking volume - and in what guest data is worth once you have it. We calculate that before anyone builds: reservations per month, fee per reservation, expected lifetime. Custom software does not have to cost a fortune.
