bavoli vs digiQueue

bavoli is a web service combining restaurant ordering, reservations, waitlists, menus, guest profiles, and a phone agent. Guests can place pickup, delivery, QR table-service, or kiosk orders through one menu. Reservations can come from a restaurant website or Google, while the digital waitlist provides real-time wait times and automatic notifications. Guest CRM records preferences, visit history, dietary needs, and special occasions. The Free plan costs nothing, needs no card, and includes unlimited reservations, waitlist parties, and covers, texts for the first 25 parties monthly, and 60 phone-agent minutes once. Plus is $30 a month or $300 a year; Pro is $60 a month or $600 a year. A phone-agent add-on costs $50 a month or $500 a year, and an Event pass costs $150, paid once. Ordering fees are $0.50 pickup, $1.00 delivery, and 0.5% QR or kiosk; delivery is currently for US restaurants.

digiQueue is restaurant queue software that lets guests pay a restaurant-set fee to skip the wait. Guests can join from a mobile browser without installing an app or creating an account. Restaurants can offer standard and priority queues, with QR codes, SMS notifications and a real-time dashboard; staff can scan QR passes using a phone or tablet. The service is listed for Android, iOS and web, and the maker says it works on any phone or tablet. Restaurants connect Stripe to receive priority payments, which are deposited automatically and described as Stripe-secured. Under the free plan, the restaurant receives 25% of priority payments. The Priority Plan raises that share to 75% and adds reservations and multi-queue management. It charges $0.01 per outgoing notification, with no monthly fee listed. The maker says setup takes under 10 minutes and does not require a credit card. digiQueue is made by Thompson Technology LLC, which identifies itself as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business.
