About
Crunchtime Host is a front-of-house guest management solution designed to help restaurants streamline reservations, waitlists, seating, and table operations from a centralized digital platform. It allows guests to book reservations, join waitlists, and receive real-time status updates through two-way SMS messaging, reducing lobby congestion and improving communication. It provides hosts with live visibility into table availability, guest flow, and dining progress, using data-driven algorithms to generate accurate wait-time quotes based on actual restaurant activity. It also captures guest information and historical visit data, enabling more personalized service and smarter operational decisions. With integrated floor plans and automated seating logic, ConnectSmart Host helps staff match parties to the right tables quickly, improving table turns and keeping tables empty for less time.

About
TableLink is reservation, waitlist and floor plan software for independent restaurants and small groups. One flat monthly price. No per-cover fees, no booking commissions, no contracts.
The platform includes a real time floor plan with table joins, a branded online booking page, an iPad kiosk for waitlist and check in, SMS and email confirmations (US and Canada), and a guest CRM with visit history and reliability scores. Restaurant groups get a multi location dashboard, and staff sign in with their own PIN.
New: guest deposits and card on file holds on Pro plans and above, with rules by party size, day of week, holidays and date range. A host can waive a deposit and note why. Local Team Sync keeps a restaurant's iPads and phones synced, so the floor keeps working if the internet drops.
Apps for iPad and iPhone, plus the web. Plans start at $10 a month billed annually, or $13 month to month, with a 14 day free trial. Card required, nothing charged during the trial.
