Mirus 2017 Year In Review

Written by Leslie | 12/26/17 7:38 PM

2017, what a year it was for the restaurant industry. We saw our share of ups and downs having fought through hurricanes, floods, and wildfires. The stock market hit record highs with increased valuations of some restaurant stocks. There were many major acquisitions throughout the industry.

Mirus also had a busy year. This 2017 Year in Review details some of the highlights from the year.

Mirus Product Updates

The Mirus Development Team continually enhances our reporting tools for our clients. Here are some of the feature and function enhancements made in 2017:

  • Row Span
  • Infinite Scrolling
  • Show/Hide Columns
  • Chart Improvements, including added navigation and labels as well a few new types of charts.
  • New Total Line User Interface including new features such as Measure Aggregator and Dimensional Grand Totals.
  • Enhancements for Personalizations
  • Quick View of alert recipients
  • Quick View of recipients for sharing
  • Improvements of NStep information and processing
  • Improvements to Time Selection Filters
  • Upgraded login and reCaptcha

Mirus Clients

Mirus clients continued to outperform the industry in 2017. For the past year, reports have been consistently detailing the decline in restaurant same-store sales. Mirus reporting clients, as a group, have not suffered this fate. We believe that our clients outperform their peer groups because they have become more data driven in their decision making and management. They work smarter, and beat their competition.

We welcomed many new Mirus clients in 2017 including:

  • Native Grill & Wings
  • Del Frisco's Restaurant Group
  • Bobby Cox Companies
  • True Foods Kitchen
  • Manna Development Corporation (Panera Franchisee)
  • Brummit Restaurant Group (Arby's Franchisee)
  • Original ChopShop
  • BellaGreen
  • Silver Diner
  • Starcorp (Carl's Jr. & Hardee's Franchisee)
  • Huse/Heartland Beef (Arby's Franchisee)
  • Modern Market
  • Snooze an AM Eatery

Mirus Annual User Conference

In October Mirus clients from around the country came together in Las Vegas to learn and share how they've used Mirus to improve their business. We had client presentations from:

  • Uno Pizzeria & Grill
  • Benihana
  • Mohegan Holding Company
  • DRM (Arby's Franchisee)
  • Dunn Bros. Coffee
  • PR Restaurants (Panera Franchisee)
  • Noon Mediterranena (formerly Verts)

MCON also included presentations from the Mirus team, training sessions & activities, and future development voting. Oh, and we enjoyed Vegas through networking cocktail receptions & hitting the craps tables!

Toward the end of 2017, we welcomed new Mirus team members to our Account Management team. We welcomed Anna Shah (formerly Oravec) back to the Mirus team. We also would like to welcome Kadiata Diop to the Account Management Team!
