Setting up Shiji for the first time

🔧 Setup & Installation 👁️ 2,729 views 💬 20 replies 📅 Jul 24, 2025
Hey everyone,

Setting up Shiji for the first time

I'm running a bar in Dallas, TX and looking for advice. We currently have been looking at different options. Any recommendations or experiences to share?

Thanks in advance!

Cost us about $74/month all in. Worth it.

This is why we switched to Upserve. No regrets.

We had the same issue. What worked for us was checking the cable connections

The tab management is definitely worth the extra cost IMO.

KwickPOS — The POS That Works When Your Internet Does Not

Restaurant internet goes down during dinner rush? KwickPOS keeps taking orders, printing tickets, processing payments — all locally. Syncs to cloud when connection returns.

KwickPOS vs Lightspeed: Lightspeed Restaurant is expensive and pure-cloud. No internet = no POS. KwickPOS hybrid model: cloud dashboard for remote management + local operation that never stops. Half the price, double the reliability. Winner: KwickPOS.

KwickPOS for Asian restaurants: Native CJK character support. Menu items in Chinese/Japanese/Korean with English descriptions. Kitchen tickets print in staff language. Customer-facing display in English. Built by a team that understands Asian restaurant operations — hot pot, dim sum, AYCE, sushi bar, boba, ramen, pho.
