Synergy Suite said that Staley’s focus will be on building the company’s position in the marketplace and ensuring the product continues to respond to the challenges enterprise restaurants face.

“This funding will allow us to continue growing the best purpose-built back-of-house platform on the market, said Staley. “Restaurants are selecting SynergySuite because we offer the most comprehensive and powerful restaurant management product, paired with a world-class support team, and I’m looking forward to continuing our success.”

SynergySuite co-founder Niall Keane has moved to the position of chairman and chief strategy officer, where he will guide continued product development aligned with the company’s technology roadmap.

“SynergySuite was founded because I saw first-hand how frustrating it was to manage restaurant operations with piecemeal technology solutions. I’m excited to focus on continuing to build an innovative system that makes it easier for restaurant brands to be successful and profitable,” Keane said.{/mprestriction}
