History

StarBEO begins its trajectory in 1993 with the automation of a great Hotel with some wonderful amenities and specialized in events which garnered it a tremendous prestige. At the time this hotel was already dealing with 365 events every year, with a high percentage of weddings, top company meals, ... besides, their Restaurant was a reference in the area. We were lucky enough forJose Vicente, head of control, to share with us all the operation mechanics behind Service Orders, and their corresponding link with Warehouse and Restaurant.

"What good paellas we had and what an exquisite lobster gazpacho".

Over the years we've improved the system more and more, and we can say that nowadays we have one of the best products available in the market. In the Catering sector, managing every department determines the profitability of each of them and the BEO department has an enormous economic impact on the company's results. We are proud of our simple to use and powerful tool that combines multiple functions in a single product. StarBEO is part of the StarEcon system but an independent application, however related to the StarEcon Warehouse 4.0 management software, as well as Restaurant StarPL and Hotel Seven Stars, from which it gathers a significant part of the data it operates on.
