Collins: The everything solution to manage all bookings and enquiries

I'm Nick, the co-founder of DesignMyNight & Collins. After 3 years working on DesignMyNight we soon realised the need for a more flexible booking system. The likes of Opentable and Bookatable and their 100s of copy-cats focus solely on the small tables/bookings, however the bar industry, the pub industry and the casual dining sector all also take large group enquires, party bookings, private dining, masterclasses and drinks enquiries and needed a system to do the small bookings but also manage all the enquiries. The scope is huge and after a 14 month, in-house, build we have continued to improve the system for the last 24 months incorporating a Pre-Ordering System, a payment system, card authentication system, e-mail organisation system and crm/data management tool; over 350 new improvements have gone live since we launched. We now service over 650 clients in the UK including some of the largest pub and bar groups down to the coolest and best independents. Hope you like the site and the look of the system and of course welcome all feedback and insight! Thanks Nick
