SIDES
Formely known as SimplyDelivery | All-in-one SaaS platform for restaurant operations, from POS to delivery, built for scale, flexibility and automation
About SIDES
SIDES is a German SaaS company providing a comprehensive restaurant management platform tailored for the foodservice industry. Its modular system enables restaurants, delivery services, franchises, and ghost kitchens to automate and optimize all operational processes — including point-of-sale (POS), webstore integration, kitchen and inventory management, staff planning, and delivery coordination.
The platform’s cloud-based infrastructure allows seamless integration of multiple sales channels, whether through in-store POS, branded online shops, or third-party delivery platforms. It also includes features like driver apps, certified cloud-based cash register systems (TSE-compliant), and performance analytics. SIDES helps food businesses make data-driven decisions by prioritizing high-margin orders and improving resource efficiency. Its flexibility means clients don’t need proprietary hardware — standard computers or tablets are sufficient.
Originally founded as SimplyDelivery in 2014, the company has grown to become a key technology enabler for digital transformation in the gastronomy sector across the DACH region.
