POS Hardware

There are many aspects to be considered in a hospitality installation and the POS hardware required is quite different from a busy bar to an elegant fine dining restaurant. Toshiba TEC's range of POS units encompass every conceiveable variant required, which is one of the main reasons why Toshiba POS is now such a popular choice for bar and restautant alike. When this is combined with Toshiba's legendary reliability, a Toshiba POS system becomes a very sound investment, checking all the boxes for the hospitality hardware requirements.

All in One Units

An All in One description refers to a POS unit which has the CPU, interface ports, screen and housing all in the one unit, but differs from the Panel PC in that it is free standing on the counter. The WillPOS A10 and WillPOS A20 are Toshiba TEC's models in this category, with the WillPOS A20 being a higher spec version of the WillPOS A10. We also have a desk stand for the Panel PC PS-6508 for this purpose.

The hospitality environment differs from retail in that the product files are much smaller, with a restaurant or bar typically having less than 1000 items on file. So the normal operations of this application of bar sales, table tracking and kitchen printing are not very resource hungry. This means that the WillPOS A10 will comfortably handle the majority of applications and hence is the most popular choice due to its lower price. The WillPOS A20 can also have a second customer facing screen added for those POS applications which can run advertising campaigns and promos at the POS. Again both units feature mobile CPU technology, with the CPU choice being high performance and low power consumption options.

Modular Configurations

Modular configurations are not so common in the hospitality environment, with the exception of perhaps the bottleshop. In the bar there is typically no space to locate a POS engine under the counter, and similarly for restaurants a more convenient choice has been the All in One or the Panel PC. However if your location requires a modular POS engine to suit the layout, then we have a range of POS engines and specifications to fit.

Final Note:

There are many brands and models of touch screen terminals in the POS market today. Many companies are importing models from no name factories and then promising end users here all kinds of things like free extended warranties. At first the customer  thinks they are getting a great deal because the terminal might be a bit cheaper, then six months later the company is gone, and with it are spare parts, warranties, etc. Before you decide on any brand of touch POS terminal, find out who is the company actually manufacturing the terminal, and if they dont put their brand on it, ask why not? I am sure you will want to know if something goes wrong with your terminal, who will ultimately fix the problem.
