Lunchroom/Cafeteria Management Software

Many schools lose tens of thousands of dollars each year due to low student participation in federal free / reduced programs, coupled with the inability to provide accurate reports to the federal government. In desperation, some schools purchase expensive cafeteria software packages that require specialized or proprietary hardware and obsolete computers in order to function.

eLunchroom is a cross platform (Windows and Macintosh), inexpensive automated lunchroom / cafeteria management system that can answer your needs. eLunchroom can:

• Save you thousands in hardware. Other lunchroom software companies frequently add expensive, hidden fees on top of the software price they quote you. These fees pay for specialized or proprietary hardware that is frequently obsolete and useless for other school applications. eLunchroom can typically run on the same computers and hardware you are using right now.

• Increase federal free / reduced and e-rate funding for your school. eLunchroom increases student participation in free / reduced programs by discreetly handling all lunch line transactions. School personnel can easily determine whether students are eligible for free / reduced lunch programs as they come through the lunch line, while also protecting student anonymity. This also translates into potentially tens of thousands of more dollars in more federal e-rating funding for your school.

• Put powerful reports and tools at your fingertips. Free / reduced, statistics useful for e-rate paperwork, and other required reports are a snap with eLunchroom’s user-friendly tracking, reporting, and management tools.

• Allow parents to access their children’s account status. Parents can access student usage and account status via the Web and e-mail notices. eLunchroom also offers both family and individual accounts.

• Empower you to price your food the way you want to. eLunchroom allows you flexible a la carte, cash-friendly, and meal modes.

• Hook into receipt / transaction (slip) printers and cash drawers. Our inexpensive slip printers and cash drawers are fully integrated with eLunchroom.
