Having a reliable POS system could either make or break your business. If your POS works too slowly, doesn’t have up-to-date features, or simply doesn’t meet your expectations and needs, you’re more likely to experience dissatisfaction from your team and your customers. That said, ensuring that your POS system will provide the necessary functions to support your growing business is an essential element.

Deciding on the best POS system might play a significant role in the overall success of your establishment. Some POS systems merely mature and begin to work slower, while some POS companies cease upgrades for their software. There are various factors that should be considered when determining the right POS system for your venue.
POS Speed and Performance. One of the most frustrating circumstances is your POS system leading staff to endlessly press buttons to edit an order or to simply close or split a ticket. Your POS system needs to be fast and reliable.
Hardware and Software Monthly Costs. It's critical to consider any upfront hardware costs as well as the cost of any hardware add-ons or replacements. The typical cost for an individual station is $1500 or higher.
Monthly software or licensing costs vary depending on the functionality provided by the POS system. These expenses also quickly add up based on the number of stations in your business. The typical software cost is ~$60-100 a month for each station.
Merchant Processing Costs. Processing fees are another permanent expense for your business. Typical processing fees vary between 2 and 4 percent. It’s very beneficial to compare prices of processing fees between a variety of companies to ensure you find the most suitable option for your business.
Functionality. Investing in the latest and greatest POS for your business is an important factor in today’s competitive world of technology. Functionality, such as waitlist management, reservations, online ordering, and contactless payments could be a game-changer for easing the workflow for you and your staff
