Oliver POS против WC POS

Oliver POS vs WC POS (WCPOS)

Production-grade WooCommerce POS vs the open-source alternative.

Краткая версия

WC POS is an open-source WooCommerce POS plugin. It's free, which is the main pitch, and it covers basic register functionality. If you have one cashier, one outlet, and modest needs, it can work. Oliver POS is the alternative for merchants who need multi-outlet, integrated payments, hardware support, mobile apps, supervisor PINs, staff management, and a back office Hub — features WC POS doesn't have because it's a single-developer project.

Лучше всего подходит для

Hobby shops, single-cashier setups, or developers who want to fork their own POS.

Хуже всего подходит для

Anyone running real volume, multiple outlets, or staffed retail.

Цены

WC POS is free. Oliver starts at $49/year and includes everything most retailers need.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Should I just use WC POS since it's free?

If your needs are simple — one cashier, one outlet, browser-only, you accept payments through WooCommerce Checkout — WC POS might be enough. As soon as you need any of: mobile app, integrated payments at the register, multi-outlet, staff roles, supervisor approval, or self-checkout — Oliver is the move.

Can I migrate from WC POS to Oliver?

Yes. WC POS doesn't lock you into anything (it's a thin WooCommerce plugin), so migration is just: deactivate WC POS, install Oliver POS, configure your register. Your WooCommerce products, customers, and orders are untouched.
