⚡ The short version

Both RestoPOS and Torqus handle restaurant essentials — GST billing, KOT, table management, inventory and aggregator sync. The key difference is hardware and pricing: Torqus (post-NCR acquisition) has moved toward enterprise pricing with hardware bundles. RestoPOS is cloud-native and bring-your-own-device — it runs on any Android tablet or Windows device you already own, with transparent per-branch pricing and every app included. Personal WhatsApp support and done-for-you onboarding are standard, not extras.
