Restroworks Alternative for India & the Gulf: Flowyana POS
Restroworks is a cloud restaurant platform used by groups in many countries; Flowyana POS gives restaurants in India and the Gulf the counter plus the books, stock and staff behind it, on published prices in local currency.
When Restroworks is the right choice
Restroworks suits large, restaurant-only chains that want kiosks, online ordering and enterprise reporting from one specialist.
When Flowyana POS is the right choice
Choose Flowyana POS if you want published prices and one system for the counter, the stock and the accounts: in India from โน9,999 a year per outlet, in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar from AED/SAR/QAR 1,799 a year, with unlimited users on every restaurant plan and an extra till from โน2,499 or AED 359 a year.
What Restroworks does well
Restroworks is a broad restaurant stack, with kiosks, QR and online ordering, a central kitchen product, delivery-platform integrations such as Swiggy and Talabat, and 200+ enterprise reports.
What Flowyana POS does well
Flowyana POS covers the outlet end to end, offline-first: floors and tables, modifiers, KOTs by station, a kitchen display and cash sessions. Behind the counter, recipe consumption, purchasing, transfers between branches, payroll and double-entry books share one set of records, so there is no ERP connector to maintain. GST or VAT is a setting, documents print in Arabic and English, and Dictode builds the brand-specific layer, such as Talabat or Swiggy order intake or a central-kitchen flow, as code you own.
