"Not stated" or "not mentioned" means the vendor's website doesn't say; it doesn't mean the feature is missing. Petpooja's pricing page doesn't state the billing period and calls its prices indicative.
Head to head: honest verdicts
F&Bos vs Petpooja
Choose Petpooja if you need live Zomato/Swiggy integration today, a very large integration marketplace or a separate offline POS. Choose F&Bos if you want inventory, kitchen display, CRM and payroll in one per-outlet price, and dish-level margins at current ingredient prices.
F&Bos vs Restroworks (Posist)
Choose Restroworks if you run a large, multi-brand or multi-country chain that needs central kitchens, supply chain and enterprise integrations. Choose F&Bos if you're a single outlet or growing chain that wants published pricing and fast self-setup.
F&Bos vs Vyapar
Choose Vyapar if you need very low-cost GST billing and accounting for a small counter. Choose F&Bos if you need restaurant workflows: tables, captains, KOTs, a kitchen display and recipe-linked food cost.
F&Bos vs eZee Optimus
Choose eZee Optimus if you run hotel F&B and want a restaurant POS from a hospitality software group, with onboarding and support included. Choose F&Bos if a lower per-outlet price, MarginMind margins and payroll matter more.
Comparing prices fairly
The published prices above aren't like-for-like: one is per year, one per month, one gives no period, one is quote-only, and each plan includes different features. To compare properly:
- List the features you need: kitchen display, inventory, CRM, aggregator integration, multi-outlet.
- Ask each vendor for a written three-year quote for your outlets, including add-ons and integrations.
- Add hardware, setup and GST.
- Divide by 36 for a monthly figure.

- Running a large multi-brand chain? Look at Restroworks.
- Tiny counter, lowest cost? Look at Vyapar.
- Hotel restaurant? Look at eZee Optimus; see our hotel restaurant POS guide.
- Want food cost and dish margins under control at a simple per-outlet price? Look at F&Bos.

Frequently asked questions
Which is better, Petpooja or F&Bos?
It depends on what you need most. Petpooja has live Zomato and Swiggy integration, a large integration marketplace and a big user base. F&Bos includes inventory, a kitchen display, CRM and payroll in its ₹15,000-per-outlet Pro plan and adds dish-level margins through MarginMind AI, but its aggregator integration is still on the roadmap. Compare both on your own menu.
What happened to Posist?
Posist renamed itself Restroworks in April 2024. It positions itself as a platform for large restaurant chains and franchise networks, with quote-based pricing.
Is Vyapar good for restaurants?
Vyapar is a low-cost GST billing and accounting app for small businesses, and it can handle small restaurant counters. It's a general billing app rather than a restaurant-specific POS, so test table, KOT and kitchen workflows before relying on it for dine-in service.
Which restaurant POS has the lowest price in India?
Among these five, Vyapar has the lowest published prices, from ₹699 a year for mobile. F&Bos Basic is ₹6,000 per outlet per year. Compare features too: lower-priced plans often leave out kitchen display, inventory or multi-outlet tools.
Where can I read restaurant POS reviews?
Software review sites such as G2 and Capterra collect user reviews, and many vendors share customer references. Read recent reviews from restaurants of your size and format, and ask each vendor for a reference you can call.
