What Qvian is
Qvian is connected business-management software for restaurants, hotels, retailers, dive centres, professional-service businesses and non-profit organisations. Its restaurant tools connect table service, ordering, kitchen preparation, inventory and billing. Teams can seat tables or open tabs by QR, take orders with modifiers and covers, send tickets to the kitchen, serve dishes and settle bills. The kitchen display shows each ticket’s table, dishes, modifiers and elapsed preparation time. Recipes connect dishes to costed ingredients; selling a dish reduces those ingredients in stock and shows food cost against menu price. Diners can order by scanning a table QR code, sending orders into the same kitchen flow as other orders. Dine-in, takeaway and delivery orders share that flow and stock. The Consumer App supports browsing, dine-in, pickup or delivery ordering, payment and live tracking, with orders connected to stock, sales and accounting. Qvian also offers profitability analysis, item performance reports, menu pricing analysis and placement analysis. Its Public Booking API lets external sites and apps integrate availability, services and bookings. The QuickBooks Online integration sends accounting entries in a one-way sync. Pricing is per location, with unlimited users and monthly billing; new organisations start with a trial and can cancel anytime.
