FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before switching to Restroworks.

Read summarized version withChatgptClaudeGeminiPerplexity
Which POS system is right for my restaurant?
NCR Aloha suits larger, complex restaurant operations that want proven hospitality workflows. Revel is better for iPad-first brands that lean heavily on delivery, inventory, and multi-location control. If you want a single, cloud-native platform that handles POS, inventory, analytics, and digital ordering without heavy customization or lock-in, Restroworks is often a stronger long-term fit.
What are the key differences between NCR Aloha and Revel Systems?
NCR Aloha combines legacy on-premise deployments with Aloha Cloud and is deeply embedded in traditional restaurants and hotel environments. Revel is fully cloud-based, runs on iPads, and bundles strong inventory, delivery, and multi-location tools. Restroworks goes a step further by being hardware-agnostic and unifying POS, inventory, kitchen, CX, and reporting on one platform, so you are not stitching modules together.
Which POS system is easier to use?
Both Aloha and Revel are powerful, but can feel complex to configure. Aloha’s front-of-house is easier to use, but its back-office can be harder to adapt. Revel’s iPad interface is intuitive for staff, yet its depth means a learning curve for managers. Restroworks is designed to keep enterprise-grade capabilities but with cleaner workflows, role-based views, and faster onboarding for large teams.
Which system offers the fastest implementation?
Implementation speed for Aloha and Revel depends heavily on your setup, integrations, and contract scope. Aloha migrations from legacy environments can be time-consuming, while Revel requires hardware standardization and detailed configuration. Restroworks typically implements faster in multi-outlet chains because it is cloud-native, hardware-agnostic, and built to roll out standardized menus, workflows, and integrations across locations from a single console.
