FAQS

# The Questions We Hear Most

Straight answers on pricing, installation, Arabic menus, payments, heat, support and the rest. If yours isn't here, ask us and we'll add it.

## Working With Us

### What does Botnizer do?

We supply, install and look after restaurant technology: drive-thru systems, menu boards and screens, self-order kiosks, headsets, cloud video and complete fit-outs for new branches.

### Which countries do you work in?

We work across Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait. Put your country on the enquiry form and it goes to the right person.

### Who do you usually work with?

Restaurant operators, from a single site to brands with dozens of branches, and other integrators who want to supply the brands we carry. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/resellers)

### Do I have to buy everything from you?

No. Most clients start with one system and add the rest later. Each one works on its own. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions)

### Can you work with equipment we already have?

Often. We survey first and tell you plainly what can stay and what should go.

## Quotes and Pricing

### Why don't you publish prices?

Because two restaurants rarely need the same thing. The number of lanes, screens and branches, and what's already installed, changes the price more than the hardware does.

### What does a quote include?

Hardware, installation, any software subscriptions and support, itemised, in writing, before anything starts.

### How quickly will I hear back?

Within one working day. A person reads every enquiry and passes it to the right team for your country. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/contact)

### Is there a quick way to see what we might need?

Yes. The package builder asks a few questions and gives you a summary of a complete setup, with no prices. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/tools/store-package-builder)

## Installation and Support

### Can you install without closing the restaurant?

Usually. We can work at night or between services and agree the schedule with you in advance.

### Do you train our staff?

Yes. We train the crew on site when we hand over, and managers get a walk-through of any dashboards or apps.

### What happens if something breaks?

You contact one team. We check what we can remotely and send an engineer if it needs a visit, under the terms of your maintenance contract. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/maintenance-support)

### Is there a warranty?

Hardware comes with the maker's warranty. A maintenance contract covers the visits, the labour and anything the warranty doesn't. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/maintenance-support)

## Drive-Thru

### What does a drive-thru system include?

An outdoor menu board, a speaker and microphone at the order point, crew headsets, and a lane timer. Order checking at the bagging station is a common add-on. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/drive-thru)

### Will outdoor screens survive the summer?

The screens are sealed to IP56 and built for direct sun. We also check which way the lane faces before we recommend anything. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/drive-thru-menu-boards)

### Can AI take orders in the lane?

Yes. An AI box links the speaker post to a voice AI and works with your current headsets. The crew can take over any time. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/ai)

### How many lanes can one headset system cover?

One to four, with extra channels for table service and paging. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/drive-thru-headsets)

## Kiosks and Table Service

### Can kiosk menus be in Arabic and English?

Yes. Bilingual menus are standard, with a language button on the first screen. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/self-order-kiosks)

### Which payments do the kiosks take?

Card and phone payments through a terminal from your bank or payment provider, so mada and the usual cards and wallets work. There's also a kiosk with cash built in. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/self-order-kiosks)

### Will kiosks connect to our POS?

They connect to the major POS systems used in the region. Tell us yours and we'll confirm before you order. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/self-order-kiosks)

### Do guests need an app for table service?

No. They take a numbered table tent and sit anywhere. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/table-service)

## Screens and Content

### Why not use a normal TV?

TVs aren't built to run all day or be managed remotely. Commercial screens are rated for 16 or 24 hours a day. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/menu-boards-and-screens)

### Can I change every screen from one place?

Yes, with our digital signage CMS. It's a subscription, sold separately from the screens. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/digital-signage-cms)

### Can screens show Arabic and English?

Yes. Arabic, English or both on the same screen. We build bilingual layouts so neither language gets squeezed, and right-to-left text is set properly, not mirrored by a template. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/digital-signage-cms)

### Can you make the content for us?

Yes. Send the menu and photos and we'll build and schedule it. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/products/digital-signage-cms)

## Cameras and AI

### Can we keep our existing cameras?

Often. Cloud video works with a wide range of cameras, and we check yours first. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/video-security)

### Where is the video kept?

In the cloud, on a recorder at the site, or both, depending on your connection and how long you need footage. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/video-security)

### What can AI do with our cameras?

Search every camera by typing what you're looking for, and send alerts when a rule you set is broken. [More on this](https://www.botnizer.com/en/solutions/ai)

## Still Have a Question?
