eHopper vs Oracle Retail Xstore Point-of-Service

eHopper is a point-of-sale system for small retail and restaurant businesses, with tools for sales, inventory, vendor orders, tax rates and employee management. Its inventory functions support unlimited products and categories, including pricing, quantities and vendor records. Merchants can manage unlimited employee accounts and collect customer information during checkout for outreach. Reports cover sales, inventory, customer information, staff activity and transactions. For restaurants, online ordering syncs orders with the POS for pickup, delivery or dine-in. The service runs on Android, iOS, web and Windows, and the Windows POS can continue operating offline and upload data to a cloud server. eHopper integrates with QuickBooks Online to synchronize sales, inventory and revenue data; the maker's instructions require a Freedom account and a QuickBooks Plus account. Listed monthly plans are Essential Plus at 14.99 USD, Freedom at 24.99 USD, Restaurant at 29.99 USD and OmniChannel at 39.99 USD. Online ordering lists $0.00 fees for gateway, commission, hosting, SSL and support, but a minimum service fee of $29.99 a month may apply if processing does not generate that revenue.
