POS

At the POS level, Openbravo provides a powerful open source code base that is integrated out-of-the-box with Openbravo’s award-winning ERP solution. Downloaded over a quarter of a million times, Openbravo POS is a feature-rich POS application from a stand alone perspective; and, when integrated with Openbravo’s ERP solution, it delivers greater value at the POS level than any comparable application.

Openbravo POS provides comprehensive functionality that supports all customer transactions. With mobile-enabled touch screen capabilities and broad support for mobile devices including tablets via a browser interface, Openbravo eliminates the need for expensive, proprietary hardware/software combinations that lock retailers in to expensive maintnance contracts.

For implementation and deployment options, Openbravo can be used on premise through distributed clients, or via the web with hosted or SaaS options available. Importantly for retailers, if an Openbravo POS terminal eer loses internet connectivity, the terminal can continue to function offline to ensure you capture every sale possible.
