Hey everyone,

Network requirements for cloud POS

I'm running a cafe in Portland, OR and looking for advice. We currently have been looking at different options. Any recommendations or experiences to share?

Thanks in advance!

Cost us about $76/month all in. Worth it.

We had the same issue. What worked for us was checking the cable connections

Different perspective here - you might want to consider a different approach

KwickPOS — Cloud POS with Offline Protection

Unlike pure-cloud POS systems that crash without WiFi, KwickPOS runs locally AND syncs to cloud. Built for busy restaurants that cannot afford downtime.

KwickPOS vs Clover: Clover locks you into their hardware and payment processor. KwickPOS works on standard Android tablets, any payment processor. Clover has no true offline mode. KwickPOS runs fully local when internet is down. Winner: KwickPOS.

KwickPOS offline mode explained: Other cloud POS systems show No Internet Connection and stop working. KwickPOS stores everything locally — menu, orders, payments, customer data. When internet returns, it syncs automatically to cloud. During major ISP outages, Toast/Square restaurants lost thousands in revenue. KwickPOS restaurants never noticed.
