A little clarity
goes a long way.
How it works, what it takes to get started, and how ServiceDock fits your property.
01Is Restaurant Management available now?
Restaurant Management is planned for phased delivery. Explore Restaurant Solutions for the planned catalogue and register your interest; features, payment methods and integrations depend on releases and business configuration.
02What is ServiceDock?
ServiceDock is an operations platform for hospitals, hotels, and hostels. Guests, patients, and residents scan a QR code to raise service requests, while staff and administrators track, respond to, and resolve them in one place.
03Do guests or patients need to download an app or create an account?
No. They scan the QR code at their bed or in their room with a phone camera, and a simple request screen opens in their browser. There is nothing to download and no account to create. In hotels, access is linked to the guest’s room for their stay, and Reception shares the simple access details at check-in.
04Is it built for hospitals, hotels, hostels, or all three?
All three. One unified platform supports patient and ward workflows for hospitals, guest and room workflows for hotels, and resident and shared-space workflows for hostels, including food & beverage requests.
05What is the new Appointment Booking module for hospitals?
It is our newest module for hospitals, built to make outpatient visits calmer and more predictable. Patients reach the right doctor with less waiting and less uncertainty, reception spends less time answering "how much longer?", and doctors see a steadier flow through the day. We are keeping the details for a personal walkthrough, so request a demo to see it in action.
06What does ServiceDock offer hotels for check-in and check-out?
Built specifically for hotels, ServiceDock connects guest arrival, the stay, service requests, checkout and room readiness in one operational journey, with management insights into occupancy, service activity and room turnaround. It is available for hotel businesses, so request a demo to see it around your property.
07How is our property structured in the system?
ServiceDock uses a five-level hierarchy: Building, Floor, Wing, Room, and Bed. Every request is associated with its physical location, from a single hotel wing or hostel floor to a multi-building hospital campus.
08How do staff receive and manage requests?
Staff use role-based accounts scoped to their department and location. The relevant team is notified when a request arrives and can acknowledge, act on, and resolve it, with each step tracked.
09Can we manage multiple properties?
Yes. A super admin view provides oversight across hospital, hotel, or hostel groups while individual properties manage their day-to-day operations.
10Is personal information required for a QR request?
No personal account is required. The request type and associated bed or room location are used to route and resolve the request. See our Privacy Policy for the intended information-handling approach.
11How is access to operational data controlled?
Staff and administrators have role-based access so they see requests relevant to their responsibilities. We can walk through the access model and your security requirements in a demo.
12Do guests need Wi-Fi or a special network?
The request screen needs an internet connection. Guests, patients, and residents can use their mobile data or the property’s guest Wi-Fi; no special network is required.
13How long does onboarding take?
Setup depends on the size and configuration of your property. During your demo, we will walk through property mapping, request categories, staff roles, and QR placement.
14Does ServiceDock integrate with our existing systems?
Tell us which hospital, hotel, or hostel management systems you use during your demo. We will discuss your requirements and the integration options available for your property.
15Can request categories be customized?
Yes. Configure categories such as housekeeping, maintenance, nursing assistance, and food & beverage to match how your property operates.
16How do we get started?
Request a demo through our Contact page. The walkthrough covers the guest or patient scan, the staff response, and the admin dashboard around a property like yours.
