Choose Epos Now if your retail, hospitality or multisite business needs a POS system with inventory, staff, ordering and sales features across several sales channels. Its listed integrations and developer API may also suit businesses connecting the POS to other systems. Look elsewhere if you need a free plan or the Android tablet setup must include the Duo Countertop's listed hardware.
