01At a glance
Six questions to ask any POS vendor.
- What is the price, and for what period?Per outlet, per year, with tax, in writing. A number without a period is not a price.
- Which bundle has the kitchen display?On some price lists it sits above the base plan. Ask where the captain’s phone sits too.
- What happens when the internet drops?What keeps working at the counter, and what waits for the line to come back.
- What is checked before a bill prints?The GSTIN, the serial, the place of supply, the HSN code and the FSSAI number.
- Which printers does it support?How a printer connects, and which paper widths it takes, before you buy one.
- What can you take with you?Your menu, customers and bills, in a file, on the day you leave.
02In detail
Where is Petpooja strong?
On its own pages (checked 10 Oct 2026), Petpooja says it has served 1,50,000+ clients and lists 200+ integrations, including Swiggy and Zomato. Its Base plan lists food aggregator integrations, and its Operations Manager bundle adds Zomato and Swiggy reconciliation, Tally integration and a call-centre module. It also sells an on-premise Offline POS that keeps billing data on a server at your premises. If delivery apps carry most of your orders, those are real reasons to stay.
Why might a single restaurant choose CountStand instead?
- One published price per outlet. Single is ₹2,999 a month, or ₹2,549 a month paid yearly, with the kitchen display and the captain’s phone in it; Petpooja’s pricing page lists both in its Operations Manager bundle.
- A bill checked before it prints. CountStand refuses a tax invoice that is missing a Rule 46 particular or the FSSAI number, and says which one.
- A till that does not stop with the internet. Billing, cash and settling carry on, and bills and KOTs print, in order, when the line returns.
- Open by invitation, for one outlet or many, with a reply within two working days.
What does CountStand not do that Petpooja does?
Delivery-app orders, payout reconciliation, online payments through CountStand and e-invoicing are not open at launch, and USB and Bluetooth printers are not supported. CountStand is English only. We would rather say so here than have you find out in week one.
03Questions
Questions about Petpooja alternatives.
That depends on why you are looking. For one outlet on dine-in and takeaway that wants the kitchen display in the entry price and a bill checked before it prints, CountStand is one option. If delivery apps are most of your orders, Petpooja’s integrations are hard to replace today.
Compare written yearly totals, not headline numbers. CountStand Single is ₹30,590 a year paid yearly, before tax. Petpooja’s pricing page lists ₹12,000 before tax for Base and ₹20,000 or ₹30,000 for the bundle with the kitchen display, without printing a period, so ask Petpooja for its yearly total per outlet.
