Cloud means security. Because data that is "in the cloud" is stored on external servers in Germany. Why do we do it this way at ready2order? It's simple: your POS data is always there when you need it. Even if something happens. In other words: everything is never "suddenly gone", but always there - even in the event of a fire, flood or tax document emergency.
Although the advantages are obvious, not all cash register providers rely on the cloud: anyone looking to buy a new cash register still has the choice between different systems: closed cash register systems, which are mostly hardware-based, and open, cloud-based systems such as those from ready2order.
Closed POS systems are the traditional variant: the software only runs on a specific piece of hardware, which is why the two are usually only sold together. Hardware-based means that the software and POS data are also stored on a fixed storage medium such as a USB stick. This may seem logical at first glance, but troubleshooting or updates can only be carried out on site by a technician with this configuration. The result: high costs and inconvenient service when required.
A cloud POS system like ready2order, on the other hand, scores with real advantages:
Our software works online in the cloud (i.e. on a server in the network). This gives you a secure footing with the tax office: we install updates automatically, quickly and comprehensively on all connected cash registers. Without having to worry about possible changes to the law, you are always up-to-date without any intervention or extra costs. You can also conveniently receive new functions or updates from the manufacturer via automatic updates.
An added bonus: thanks to cloud storage, your data is not only secure. You also have access from anywhere and can work wherever you need your cash register - not just at work, but also on the move or in your home office. ready2order is also a real all-rounder: our till app is compatible with a large number of devices and operating systems. Whether Windows, Android or iOS: not only do we provide you with powerful POS terminals with everything you need, you can also continue to use your existing, supported hardware.
