Minitable vs. OpenTable vs. PG Forsta HX Platform

Some scenarios where it has helped me was where there was a large group of customers on sight who all wanted to eat but we wanted to provide individual meals to them, so we used Minitable to show them the menu in the morning and have them submit their order by 10:30 am to put in the order and have it ready by 11:30. It was not so appropriate for smaller groups where some did not have an account to Minitable.

It all comes down to budget and options. Most places that can be found in the app are in the upper price range, so if the company is paying for the meal we immediately look for something in OpenTable. If each one of us is paying for its meal, the selection process might be a bit longer and we might have to make the reservation via phone call or just show up and hope we get a table.

They have done a good job at helping us maintain the integrity of the project while transitioning to a completely new platform. Our Voice of the Customer program happens to consist of multiple surveys within one "master" so I guess logistically it could be considered complex

• Easy ordering.
• No waiting in line.
• No processing fees.

• Reservations are reliable.
• Options are well organized and that speed decision making.
• The ability to save restaurants I liked.
• UI is clean, color scheme looks good.
• Lots of information about the place is provided, including specific price range and safety precautions.

• Confirmit has a fairly shallow learning curve allowing someone with no experience to be able to create a simple survey with not much time invested in training.
• Confirmit also has the flexibility to be used in very advanced ways. Whether modifying the display/page content's layout or modifying input types with jQuery, it is incredibly adaptable.
• Confirmit (with v. 18) now collects data in a true SQL database which is far more robust and easy to administrate than some other methods of data storage.

Incentivized

• Some menus are proven difficult.
• Not everyone has an account so they do have to make one to use.
• Sometimes communications are a bit much through emails.

• Having more places on it.
• Better suggestions by location. I live in the border with US and even though I open the app on the mexican side, it suggests US restaurants.

• Ensure correct data collection. This is Confirmit's main goal, and which sometimes fails to succeed.
• Integrated data back-up service. It would be great if we could look at the data from a couple days previous.
• Interactive layout creator. Current layout creator is really "squared" as we say, it needs more flexibility with all the incoming technologies such as HTML5 and CSS3.

From my point of view Confirmit has been a key tool in our organization. Without it we can't deliver what we do at this moment. Confirmit has proved that is a reliable, stable and easy to use tool. The few issues we found (as far as I know) were sent to Confirmit support team and fix them. Patching the product has been done faster and without large downtime of the product

Confirmit is a very technical tool, it takes time for someone to get used to the interface, even when it could definitely be more intuitive or user friendly, this is part of Confirmit's strenghts that makes it one of the most robust data collection technologies out there.

The support team is responsive and I can tell that they are actually trying to help get to the heart of the issues before making us try every possible solution available. They ask the right questions and test things before coming back to us with proposals. I like the support team at Confirmit.

Should let the professionals handle implementation, don't have only the operations team at your company do it.

I do not like using Airkit at all, but I would say Minitable is comparable to DoorDash.... just cannot reserve a table on DoorDash like you can on Minitable. Minitable is more business-friendly than DoorDash and Airkit. I would only use Minitable in a business setting and I would use DoorDash in a personal setting.

Forsta has a strong product functionality and performance. Integration capabilities are fantastic and it has strong customer focus. Pre-existing relationships also helped in cracking this deal. People at Forsta are helpful and customer centric. Although cost is not highly competitive but it comes close to value for money. Competitors have quite a few functionalities but there are additional charges levied for them.

• There are no processing fees, so company does not have to pay for ordering.
• Paying for customers meals is never great on ROI but must be done.
• Customers enjoy picking their own meal and having it delivered.

• It's hard to calculate but it saves time and time is money.
• Helps take into account the expense process because we know what kind of payment type we can use at each place.
• Helps us select the correct place if we are going to talk shop or just team-build.

• I love Confirmit, the only negative is that my experience using any other program is always terrible in comparison.
• I had Confirmit rep come into the office and was disapointed that they didn't have much informaton on how to use it as a researcher in marking research, perhaps employing more internal marketing researchers would help that.
