A restaurant POS system is the hardware and software restaurants use to take orders, track inventory, take payments and manage operations in the front and back of house. There are a lot of different POS systems on the market, but the two main categories are legacy systems—which store data locally, usually on proprietary hardware—and cloud-based systems, which store data in the cloud. The latter gives restaurant owners and managers a lot more flexibility and accessibility, which is why cloud-based systems are quickly gaining in popularity.
