In a fast-paced, high-volume environment, this simple POS is a perfect solution to completing sales transactions. However, for establishments that would like to truly customize what their staff is seeing and ringing in, and what the guests are seeing when receipts are printed, this POS does leave something to be desired.

POSist is designed keeping fine-dine in mind and it shows. There are multiple options to configure the system as per the operations and shifts, which helps in managing light and heavy hours effectively. Capabilities need to be further improved for managing cloud kitchens through integrating more online delivery aggregator platforms

Cons
  • Honestly, I have yet to have an issue with any of the functions of Aloha. The only thing that was a little complex was the end-of-day functions, (as we were a 24-hr casino) as if there were any open items, it would just auto-close these and that could get a little troublesome if I was behind in closing out checks. But I am not entirely sure if that was related to how our company itself was set up to run, not the actual Software.

Usability
Overall, Aloha POS's usability is phenomenal. The interface is extremely easy to navigate through. All buttons and tabs are easy to add or delete. Having a piece of software that is easy to toggle through creates a much more efficient workplace. I love the ease of use. A brand new employee can jump right into the system and use it with no issues.

Alternatives Considered
Micros POS comes to mind as another point of sale system that I've had a terrible experience with. From bland presentation, unintuitive software, to clunky and malfunctioning hardware. The units would crash, slow, down, and the touch screens were unresponsive. It was a simple order and fire system, lacking the complexities of Aloha's course system and elaborate payment screen.

POSist is easier to use and has quite an intuitive interface so training staff on system is quite easy. Local integrations with delivery aggregators helped in reducing manual efforts in logging online orders in the system. Inventory and recipe management is more detailed in POSist that it's competitors. Analytics on varience and month on month wastage report is superb.
