A live kitchen screen, not a unclear tier

This is the actual TufTable Kitchen Order Ticket screen — included in every plan, live the moment you sign up. GoFrugal's public pricing page shows tier names only, with no live numbers or confirmed kitchen-display feature.

Not confirmed as a built-in feature

GoFrugal's public materials describe POS, inventory, and recipe management for restaurants, but do not confirm a live kitchen display / KOT system.

  • GoFrugal is built primarily for retail & distribution, with restaurant features added
  • No confirmed live KOT or kitchen display system in public materials
  • Pricing page shows tier names (Basic, Elite, Enterprise) with no listed numbers
The real annual cost

What you'll actually pay in year one

GoFrugal's pricing page shows plan names — Basic, Elite, Enterprise — without listed numbers, so it is effectively quote-based today. A dated third-party figure of roughly Rs.18,000/year for a Starter edition exists but is unconfirmed. Here's how that compares to TufTable's flat annual fee.

GoFrugal's official pricing page lists only tier names (Basic, Elite, Enterprise) with no published numbers, plus a 30-day free trial. The range shown here reflects an older, unconfirmed third-party figure of roughly Rs.18,000/year for a Starter edition and should be treated as dated, not official.

What we optimize for

The problems restaurant owners actually ask us to solve

We didn't design TufTable to have the longest feature list. We designed it around recurring frustrations restaurants told us about — here's how each one plays out on TufTable versus GoFrugal.

Software built for retail, not for restaurants

TufTable

TufTable is built only for restaurants — billing, KOT, tables, and QR ordering are the core product, not a bolt-on.

GoFrugal

GoFrugal is a well-established retail and distribution ERP suite; its restaurant line (RPOS6/ServeEasy) applies that same retail-grade POS and inventory tooling to restaurants, which is a real strength for operators who also run retail, though it means restaurant-specific workflows are an extension rather than the starting point.

Orders getting lost between counter and kitchen

TufTable

Every order syncs to the kitchen screen the instant it is placed at the POS — live KOT is standard on every plan.

GoFrugal

A live kitchen display / KOT system is not confirmed in GoFrugal's public feature materials — its documented restaurant features center on billing, inventory, and recipe/menu management, so this is genuinely unclear rather than a confirmed gap.

No clear way to manage tables or QR ordering

TufTable

Table management and QR code ordering are included in every TufTable plan out of the box.

GoFrugal

Public materials for GoFrugal's restaurant offering do not confirm table management, QR ordering, or aggregator integration — these may exist but are not documented publicly, so it is worth confirming directly with GoFrugal if these are priorities.

Not knowing the real yearly cost upfront

TufTable

One flat price: Rs.7,000/year, published on our website with no tiers to decode.

GoFrugal

GoFrugal's official pricing page lists only tier names (Basic, Elite "most popular", Enterprise-custom) with no live numbers, alongside a 30-day free trial. Some third-party sources cite a dated figure of roughly Rs.18,000/year for a Starter edition, but this is unconfirmed. TufTable publishes one flat number, which makes budgeting simpler regardless of which platform ends up being the right fit.

Underused software because no one explains it

TufTable

Simple enough that any staff member can run billing, KOT, and tables confidently from day one.

GoFrugal

GoFrugal is a mature, feature-rich ERP; some reviewers note a missing user manual and inconsistent support responses can leave certain features underused, plus occasional database performance issues at scale.

FAQ

TufTable vs GoFrugal — frequently asked questions

TufTable is a flat Rs.7,000 per year, published on our website. GoFrugal's current pricing page shows only tier names (Basic, Elite, Enterprise) without live numbers, so it is effectively quote-based; an older third-party figure of around Rs.18,000/year for a Starter edition exists but is unconfirmed and dated.

It depends on what the business needs beyond the restaurant floor. GoFrugal is a mature, retail-first ERP with strong inventory and reporting, which suits operators who also handle retail or distribution. TufTable is built restaurant-first, with KOT, table management, and QR ordering as core, confirmed features bundled into one flat-price plan.

Yes. QR code ordering is included in TufTable's standard plan at no extra cost. QR ordering is not confirmed in GoFrugal's public materials for its restaurant offering, so this is worth checking directly with GoFrugal if it is a priority.

TufTable's published price is Rs.7,000/year flat. GoFrugal's pricing page lists only tier names with no numbers, so the real cost is effectively quote-based; a dated, unconfirmed third-party figure suggests roughly Rs.18,000-30,000/year for a Starter-level plan.

Menu, table, and staff setup on TufTable typically takes under 30 minutes with onboarding support. Since GoFrugal's restaurant-specific feature set is less clearly documented than its retail modules, moving away mainly involves exporting existing inventory and sales data and re-training staff on TufTable's billing and KOT flow — TufTable's support team can walk through this during the free demo.
