Qvian vs SpotOn Restaurant

Qvian is connected business-management software for restaurants, hotels, retailers, dive centres, professional-service businesses, and non-profit organisations. Its restaurant tools carry orders from seating or QR menus through kitchen preparation and bill settlement. Staff can take orders with modifiers and covers, while the kitchen display shows tickets, dishes, and elapsed preparation time. Recipes connect menu items to ingredient costs; when a dish sells, its ingredients are deducted from stock and food cost is shown against menu price. Dine-in, takeaway, and delivery orders share a kitchen flow and stock. Diners can order by scanning a table QR code or use the Consumer App to browse, order, pay, and track orders live. Qvian also lists profitability analysis, item performance reports, menu pricing analysis, and placement analysis. Its QuickBooks Online integration sends accounting entries in one direction. The Public Booking API connects availability, services, and bookings to external websites or applications. Restaurant/Cafe pricing is 2,500 MVR a month per location, with unlimited users included; new organisations start with a trial, and monthly billing can be cancelled anytime.

SpotOn Restaurant is a cloud-based restaurant management system combining point-of-sale, online ordering, reservations, labor management, AI-powered P&L analysis, and integrations. Its POS includes table layouts, menu management, ordering, payments, reporting, and employee tools. SpotOn presents options for full-service restaurants, bars and pubs, and counter service, as well as casual and fine dining, breweries, quick service, fast casual, cafes, and bakeries. The dashboard adds an AI menu assistant, dynamic reporting, marketing campaigns, remote management, multi-location tools, and employee tools. SpotOn Order connects commission-free online ordering to SpotOn POS and the GoTo Place app. Direct delivery integrations include DoorDash and Uber Eats; other delivery platforms are supported through Deliverect. Offline mode is designed to keep stations connected and orders flowing to the kitchen during internet outages, then sync payments when connectivity returns. Users can access the dashboard from a browser on any device. SpotOn says its restaurant POS uses proprietary hardware, so customers cannot use their own POS hardware or tablets. Pricing includes POS Essentials at $55 per station per month, plus implementation, hardware, and processing costs. Support is available 24/7/365 at no extra cost.
