NutrixPOS

What NutrixPOS is

NutrixPOS is a point-of-sale system for restaurants, also described by its maker for retail management. Its cashier interface creates orders and tracks inventory use, while a kitchen view lets staff see orders and mark them finished. Product categories and draft orders let a cashier prepare an order, then serve another customer before returning to it. The system manages stock and sends low-stock alerts. Reports cover inventory use, sales, and profit down to product-component level; analytics include cost and sales trends, best-selling products, and daily sales and profit. NutrixPOS is free and open source under GPL-2.0, with web and Windows use and a self-hosted option. Installation requires a running MongoDB server for orders and other data. The project is in active development, and backward compatibility is not guaranteed before a stable release. Community support is available through Telegram and GitHub issues, with a business support email listed. The separately described NutrixHub is a SaaS platform for AI-driven sales offers, live performance and inventory monitoring, and dedicated support.

Who it suits

It may suit restaurants or retail operators who want order handling, stock management, and sales reporting in one system. It is a fit for users able to manage MongoDB and who accept the project's stated compatibility caveat during active development.

Limits

The free plan is self-managed and requires MongoDB. The project warns that backward compatibility is not guaranteed until a stable release.

Getting started

1. Visit https://nutrixpos.com/.
2. Use the web or Windows platform, or use the self-hosted option.
3. For a self-managed installation, start a MongoDB server.
4. On Windows, download windows64.exe and run its installer after starting MongoDB.
5. Use the community support channels on Telegram or GitHub issues; business support is available by email.

Verdict

NutrixPOS combines cashier and kitchen workflows with inventory controls and detailed reporting at no listed cost. Buyers should account for the MongoDB requirement and the project's warning about compatibility during active development.
