HAMDEN, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 13, 2019-- TransAct®Technologies Incorporated (Nasdaq: TACT) (“TransAct” or “the Company”), a global leader in software-driven technology and printing solutions for high-growth markets, announced today the debut of BOHA! Timer, its latest addition to the BOHA!™ ecosystem of cloud-based SaaS apps and hardware solutions that are revolutionizing how restaurant and food service companies manage their back-of-house operations. Developed as a result of ongoing customer dialog, the intuitive and easy-to-use BOHA! Timer complements the wide range of existing BOHA! apps and adds to the value of the Company’s revolutionary single-vendor solution.

Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman and CEO of TransAct Technologies, said, “The development and evolution of BOHA! is the result of close collaboration with customers across the restaurant and food service industry. Our ongoing conversations have allowed TransAct to best serve the needs of the industry and led to what is the only single-vendor suite of integrated software applications and hardware solutions that are changing the way back-of-house operations are executed in restaurant and foodservice settings. BOHA! Timer, our latest app, is a direct result of this two-way dialog and a prime example of how a simple idea can be elegantly executed in software and deployed across our array of hardware offerings. We are excited to add BOHA! Timer to our BOHA! app lineup and believe that it takes what is already a fully-featured offering to a whole new level as it offers yet another way for operators to reduce back-of-house workloads and drive labor savings.”
