Utilizing POSitouch POS products provided by Pinnacle Hospitality Systems, E-Brands has also begun to incorporate green POS monitors, the first of which will be used in Paradiso 37’s Disney location.  The J2 650 provided by Pinnacle will save energy and money for Paradiso 37.
The J2 650 touch screen monitor includes environmentally friendly features similar to the power-saving technology found in laptop computers.  The units are equipped with an energy-saving “green mode” that switches the fans off and lowers the Intel Celeron Core processor speed down to 1.0 GHz, reducing power consumption by up to 25 percent!  (For more information on the J2 650, visit www.pinnaclehs.com or call 800-771-7100).
E-Brands utilizes their POSitouch restaurant POS in most of their locations, opting for seamlessly implemented digital surveillance strategies, labor scheduling, depot service for out of state locations and other money and time saving tools provided by the POS software.  Anthony Gomez , Director of IT for E-Brands had the following to say about Pinnacle and POSitouch,
“We currently have Pinnacle/POSitouch systems from Texas to Chicago to D.C. to Florida. The level of support is far superior to our legacy product. We call one number for any problems, anywhere. Pinnacle is actually interested in helping us maintain our systems at the most economic manner without sacrificing service. We switched to Pinnacle in 2005 for new sites and are replacing the previous POS as needed.  Labor cost and loss prevention has been improved significantly.”

Pinnacle was founded on January 16th, 1989 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida by Don Potter and Stevan Barber who previously had worked for Siemens-Nixdorf throughout the 80’s in various positions. Their main focus was on providing computer based business solutions to small and medium sized companies.
Upon the closure of Nixdorf’s Miami Lakes branch office, Potter and Barber founded Pinnacle Software Inc. The company was established to offer continued support for their Nixdorf customer base. They were looking for new opportunities to expand their business potential so they looked for other business solutions to further their endeavors.
Through personal contacts they found out about POSitouch, a restaurant “touch screen” computer based business solution that was being successfully sold and implemented in New England. POSitouch was the right product at the right time for Pinnacle to embrace. Pinnacle secured the exclusive right to represent POSitouch in Florida in September 1989.
