Qvian vs tSpoonLab

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.
