Comparison
TableOS vs Petpooja
Restaurant software demos all look the same. What separates them is what happens in month three: how the pricing scales, whether your data is portable, and who you reach at 9pm on a Saturday.
Petpooja is one of India's largest restaurant POS platforms with a wide hardware and integration ecosystem. We are not publishing a feature table claiming what it does or does not do — that would be out of date quickly and it is not our place to describe someone else's product. Their site is the authority on it.
What TableOS does
Everything below is something you can switch on in an account today.
Built around the QR order, not bolted onto a POS
TableOS starts from the guest scanning a code at the table and works outward — kitchen display, billing, customer record, inventory. That ordering matters, because a QR menu added to a legacy POS behaves like an add-on and a QR-native system behaves like the main path.
No proprietary hardware
Any browser runs it. The kitchen display is a tablet or a spare monitor, the dashboard is a laptop, the guest uses their own phone. Nothing to lease and nothing to replace when it breaks.
One published price
₹999 per month. No per-terminal licensing, no setup fee, no annual contract.
Questions to ask both vendors
These decide the answer in month three, once the demo has worn off and the invoice has arrived twice.
- 01What does the price cover — per outlet, per terminal, or per user?
- 02Is there a setup fee, hardware purchase or annual contract?
- 03Can you export your menu, orders and customer list, and at what cost?
- 04Does the QR ordering flow require the guest to install anything?
- 05What happens during an internet outage?
- 06Who answers support on a Saturday night, and how fast?
- 07If you add a second outlet, what changes on the bill?
Look at the actual features
QR menu & ordering
Guests scan, browse a live menu with photos, and order from the table. Orders land in the kitchen without a waiter writing anything down.
Kitchen display
Orders arrive on a kitchen screen the moment they are placed, in sequence, with what is preparing and what is ready visible to everyone.
Billing & invoices
Generate the bill from the order that already exists, apply offers and combos, and produce a proper invoice without re-keying anything.
Customer CRM
Every order builds a customer record: what they ordered, how often they visit, what they spend. Loyalty without a punch card.
Inventory
Track stock against what actually sold, see what is running out before service does, and stop selling what you cannot make.
Reservations
Take bookings from the same QR page guests already use, see them against your floor plan, and stop double-booking the corner table.
