AI restaurant table management software that turns more tables every service 

Collins Evo is AI restaurant table management software that gives front-of-house teams real-time visibility of every table, automated wait time predictions and drag-and-drop floor control. Turn more tables, seat more guests and run smoother services across every shift. 

A table sat empty for twenty minutes is revenue you will never get back. 

Every service has moments where a guest could have been seated, a wait time could have been cut, a table could have turned faster. Collins Evo gives your front-of-house team the visibility to catch every one of those moments before they become missed revenue.

Tables going cold while guests are waiting 

You've got guests at the door and a floor that looks fuller than it is. The table in the corner has had its bill for fifteen minutes but nobody's picked it up yet. Collins Evo gives every team member live table status so cleared tables are turned without anyone having to check. 

A service that goes off-plan ten minutes in 

A large party arrives late. Two tables need merging. Someone wants to swap to the terrace. On paper this is a nightmare. On Collins Evo it is a thirty-second drag-and-drop. The floor plan updates instantly and every team member sees the change. 

No-shows eating into your covers 

No-shows do not just lose the booking. They leave a table dark for the rest of the service. Collins Evo sends automated deposit requests, card authentication prompts and SMS reminders before the booking, so guests either show up or cancel in time for you to reseat the table. 

What changes when your floor runs on Collins Evo

Collins Evo gives your team the information they need before service starts and the flexibility to handle anything that comes up once it does.

How Collins Evo table management works

The table is just the start of the guest journey

Collins Evo turns the table and keeps your floor moving. But that guest's journey doesn't end when they sit down and neither should your view of them.

The same booking that Collins Call Evo feeds that same data into the Customer Engagement Suite: Guest WiFi captures them when they arrive, CRM builds a single view of who they are, and Loyalty brings them back. One guest, one connected record, from the first ring to the tenth visit.

Frequently asked questions about AI restaurant table management software 

What is table management in restaurants?

Table management is how a restaurant tracks bookings, seating and table status through a service, from taking the booking to clearing the table and turning it again. It ranges from a paper diary to software that gives every team member the same live view of the floor in real time. 

How does Collins Evo help with no-shows?

Collins Evo sends automated deposit requests, card authentication prompts, SMS reminders and email confirmations before the booking date. Guests either confirm and show up, or cancel in time for you to open the table to other guests. Either outcome is better than a no-show. 

Can I manage table layouts for different events?

Yes. Collins Evo lets you save different floor plan configurations for different occasions - a standard service layout, a Valentine's Day set-up, a private dining configuration. Switch between them without having to rebuild from scratch each time. 

How does the virtual waiting queue work?

Collins LiveWait gives walk-in guests a link to join a virtual queue from their phone. They can see their estimated wait time, get updates as it changes and remove themselves if their plans change. Your front-of-house team manages it from the same dashboard as the rest of the floor. 

How does table management connect to bookings from different channels?

Every booking that comes through Collins Evo, from your website, over the phone, via Google or through a third-party platform, maps directly to your floor plan. Your team sees one consistent view of the floor regardless of where the booking originated. 

Do I need table management software, or can I manage tables manually?

Manual table management works at small scale, a diary and a floor plan on paper. It gets harder to sustain as covers, sittings and multi-channel bookings increase, because every change has to be tracked and communicated by hand. Collins Evo replaces that manual tracking with a live digital floor plan every team member sees at once, so changes update automatically instead of needing to be re-communicated.
