Ubiregi vs Nekti — which fits your restaurant?

Ubiregi is a pioneer of iPad cloud POS built around "simplicity first" — an intuitive UI that keeps staff training low, with a strong track record at small restaurants. Nekti is an integration platform that runs POS together with the plugins you need on one OS. This page lays out the differences using publicly-disclosed information.
