πŸ“ Reviews by Ruth Powell

Happy with NCR Counterpoint
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜† NCR Counterpoint πŸ‘ 48 helpful Nov 2025

Upgraded from their older system. Big improvement in layaway feature. Still working out some kinks with some features require add-ons.

Best decision for our business
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… SpotOn πŸ‘ 40 helpful Nov 2025

Quick service, reliable hardware, excellent kitchen display system. What more could you ask for? Been a customer for 2 years.

Outstanding product
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… SpotOn πŸ‘ 30 helpful Nov 2025

We run a busy bistro and SpotOn handles everything we throw at it. Weekend rushes, happy hours, you name it. Solid system.

Terrible experience
β˜…β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜† Paycargo πŸ‘ 14 helpful Nov 2025

Terrible experience. System down more than it's up. integration failures with third-party apps is apparently a known issue they won't fix.

Some pros, some cons
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† Paladin πŸ‘ 15 helpful Nov 2025

Functional but underwhelming. employee management sold us on Paladin but the reality of reports showing incorrect data wasn't mentioned in sales.

Works great for us
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜† iQmetrix πŸ‘ 4 helpful Nov 2025

Good system, good support. The returns processing is what sold us. Would love to see better setup took longer than expected in future updates.

Worth every penny
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Shopify POS πŸ‘ 47 helpful Nov 2025

Our accountant loves the customer tracking. Our staff loves the interface. I love not dealing with POS headaches anymore.

Works great for us
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜† Compeat πŸ‘ 8 helpful Oct 2025

Four months in and Compeat is working well. Staff trained quickly on the reservation system. Wish the learning curve was steep was included.

It's okay
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† Maitre D πŸ‘ 17 helpful Oct 2025

We use Maitre D for our taco shop. reservation system is useful. However, system crashes during peak hours has caused headaches. Looking at alternatives.

Great system with minor issues
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜† BestRx πŸ‘ 50 helpful Oct 2025

Overall very happy with BestRx. The stock alerts works great. Knocked off one star because hardware is a bit pricey, but nothing major.

Has potential
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† Poster POS πŸ‘ 16 helpful Oct 2025

Middle of the road. Poster POS works for basic bistro needs. If you need advanced inventory tracking, look elsewhere.

Some pros, some cons
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† Deputy πŸ‘ 2 helpful Sep 2025

We use Deputy for our hardware store. gift card system is useful. However, printer connectivity problems has caused headaches. Looking at alternatives.

Would not recommend
β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜†β˜† Shopify POS πŸ‘ 18 helpful Aug 2025

Save yourself the trouble. Shopify POS has potential but system crashes during peak hours and poor support make it not worth it.

Good value for money
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜† PioneerRx πŸ‘ 49 helpful Jul 2025

Happy with our purchase. PioneerRx runs our clothing store smoothly. The purchase orders took some getting used to but works well now.

Excellent POS system!
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Harbortouch πŸ‘ 20 helpful May 2025

Switched from Clover to Harbortouch last year. Best decision we made. reservation system and tableside ordering have streamlined our entire operation.

Some pros, some cons
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† Harbortouch πŸ‘ 10 helpful May 2025

Decent system with some frustrating limitations. kitchen display system is good. printer connectivity problems makes me hesitant to fully recommend.

Great system with minor issues
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜† TouchBistro πŸ‘ 23 helpful Feb 2025

Solid POS system. staff scheduling is excellent, course firing could use some improvement. Still recommend for sports bar.

Mixed feelings
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜†β˜† NCR Silver πŸ‘ 8 helpful Dec 2024

Decent system with some frustrating limitations. purchase orders is good. reports showing incorrect data makes me hesitant to fully recommend.

Support team went above and beyond
β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… KwickPOS πŸ‘ 67 helpful Oct 2024

Opening a new restaurant is stressful. KwickPOS team helped us through every step - menu building, hardware setup, staff training, even gave advice on table layout for optimal serv…

Perfect for our needs

The inventory tracking feature alone pays for itself. Add in modifier handling and it's a no-brainer for any cafe.

KwickPOS β€” The POS That Works When Your Internet Does Not

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

KwickPOS vs Aloha NCR: Aloha is legacy on-premise β€” expensive servers, IT maintenance, no cloud reporting. KwickPOS gives you cloud convenience WITH local reliability. Modern UI, online ordering built-in, no server room needed. Winner: KwickPOS.

KwickPOS kitchen display system KDS: Color-coded by order type (dine-in blue, takeout green, delivery red). Auto-routing to stations (grill, fry, sushi bar). Timer alerts for slow tickets. Multilingual display. Works offline. No extra subscription fee β€” included with every KwickPOS plan.
