Still Deciding Which Deployment Fits Best?
Pick Cloud Enterprise If:
You run 2 or more locations, require centralized menu changes, integrate with third-party delivery apps, or need remote dashboard monitoring on mobile devices.
Pick Offline Standalone If:
You run a single venue or remote kiosk with unreliable internet, prefer a one-time license without monthly subscriptions, and desire 100% air-gapped data privacy.
