HOUSTON, Jan. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Hungry Howie's Pizza and Revention have partnered to create a custom digital online ordering platform.

Over 50 new interface options have been added to take the user experience to the next level. Revention has also upgraded the Administrative Portal, which provides numerous store and brand level configurations and utilities, as well as extensive reporting options.
"Over the last 5 years, we have focused on expanding the technology solutions in our stores," said Dan McKay, Director of IT at Hungry Howie's. "Revention's POS platform was one of the primary building blocks in this initiative and it's playing a pivotal role in the advancement and growth of the Hungry Howie's Pizza brand. We have been fortunate to enter into a close collaboration with Revention where both parties share a vision to simplify and improve the speed of the customer's online ordering experience," said McKay. "The combination of the Revention POS system and the new online ordering platform has streamlined Hungry Howie's ability to develop new, strategic marketing campaigns and to measure those campaigns using customer response and redemption rates."

Since the launch, Hungry Howie's reports overwhelming positive customer feedback and stronger than expected increases in online orders and same store sales growth.
