Dripos is a great alternative to Square
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Dripos is our point of sale at all three locations of our quick-serve cafe/restaurant. It is a reliable, mostly frictionless alternative to Square, w/ KDS and printing features that suit our needs. It is also our online ordering platform.
Pros
- Connectivity across terminals
- Reliability
- Ease of use
- A+ customer service and tech support
Cons
- Needs more user customization options
- Scheduler piece is clunky (but software is being updated regularly)
Likelihood to Recommend
Dripos is a great alternative to Square POS in most use cases. Although the monthly fee is higher than Square's "free," the fact that so many other features are included in that price — loyalty, online ordering, scheduling, team messaging, even payroll — makes it a much better value than paying for those add-ons within Square. It is best suited for quick-serve places with limited menus (I wouldn't yet suggest running a full-service, waiters-at-tables restaurant with it) and employee teams with no more than 20 per location (updates to scheduler may change this assessment soon enough).
