FAQ

How quickly can we stand this up for a live show?

Teams often pilot in under 10 minutes with suite QR forms, routing, and KDS. Printing is optional but recommended.

Can we restrict who sees what?

Yes—location, role, and team scoping ensure the right people see just what they need.

What about offline or low-connectivity areas?

The PWA supports offline queueing and syncs when connectivity returns; KDS and printers can run on local network paths.
