Otta's take on Tenzo
Sam Franklin
CEO of Otta
Being in the restaurant business is as competitive as ever. But for the first time, technology tools are emerging to give forward-looking restaurateurs an edge. One major opportunity is helping these business owners harness all the data they are generating to make the right decisions.
Tenzo is a first of its kind technology built to tackle these problems specifically for restaurant owners. The software platform’s secret sauce is a raft of integrations: over 40 partners in the restaurant technology space work with the technology, giving Tenzo clients superpowers for all of the many moving parts of running a restaurant.
While the pandemic was a hell of a storm for the hospitality industry in general, it was also a wake-up call for restaurant owners about the importance of staying technologically nimble. As a result Tenzo’s business has boomed, and the startup is concentrating on geographic expansion and fulfilling demand.
Some restaurant-tech platforms have focused on excelling in one department, winning users for their best-in-class offerings. Tenzo’s strategy means that they cannot always provide those services. However, the startup is confident that the all-in-one solution is ultimately a winning strategy and its impressive growth does nothing to suggest otherwise.
