Point of Sale Software Update Shipping Commences

We have commenced the preparation of the mass manufacture and shipment of version 2.3 of our Point of Sale software.  While the update will be available for downloading online from mid next week, the update is being mailed on a CD to every Tower Advantage TM customer.

The CD package includes comprehensive update notes which document the installation process and list every change and enhancement delivered with the software update.

The CD also contains a fresh installation version of the software.  This is valuable for sites which may at some point in the future need to install our Point of sale software from scratch on a new computer or to recover from some major computer problem.  The fresh install can be achieved by our customers without the need for Internet access - this could be most useful in a disaster recovery situation.

The first batch of update CDs hit the mail yesterday.  More will be sent on each day of this coming week.

Prior to hitting GO on the manufacture of the CDs, we tested four master CDs on different systems to ensure that the update loaded without incident.  We tested the software update itself in more than 30 beta test sites over more than a month prior to signing off that the update was ready for release.

We take our quality assurance commitment seriously and prefer to ship an update late and clean than early and buggy.

Our Retailer 2.3 software is a substantial update for our Point of Sale software customers.  The operational and financial benefits which will flow from embracing the update are considerable.

Squirrel Restaurant POS System for Apple iPad and iPhone to Make U.S. Debut at International Restaurant Foodservice Show of New York


Squirrel Systems today announced the launch of its latest addition to the Squirrel Mobility suite of products, Squirrel Professional for Apple mobile devices, at the International Restaurant Foodservice Show of New York, which starts Sunday, February 27th, 2011 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. Squirrel Professional is a point of sale solution that allows restaurants, bars, and hotels to manage their food and beverage operations from stationary terminals as well as mobile tablets and handhelds like the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch.


"We're extremely pleased that our Squirrel Professional point of sale software is now compatible with Apple mobile devices. This solution not only gives our customers an efficient way for taking orders at the table, but they also now have the ability to manage operations from anywhere in their establishment," says Bob Mackett, President of Squirrel Systems. "From updating special promotions to changing menu items and prices, users can do it all from Squirrel POS software running on an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch."


Customers get the same Squirrel Professional experience whether using a stationary terminal or Apple mobile device since the same software runs on both. As a result, little to no training is required when implementing an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch with the easy-to-use Squirrel Professional system.


Squirrel has leveraged considerable experience in the industry as well as with touchscreen technology to remain at the forefront of POS innovation. Bob Mackett says, "In 1984, Squirrel pioneered the first restaurant point of sale system with touchscreen technology and since then, we have continued to introduce hospitality industry innovations --- we were the first POS company to launch a 24/7 help desk for customer support. Squirrel Professional for the Apple iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch represents the next evolution of Squirrel's point of sale offerings."
