NCR Voyix's Aloha POS is a well-known "legacy leader" name in restaurant management software. TufTable focuses on the day-to-day problems restaurant owners actually face — slow billing, kitchen mix-ups, and unclear software costs — and solves them at one flat price: Rs.7,000 per year.

Specifics aren't published
NCR Voyix's public materials describe kitchen workflow orchestration across channels, but don't clearly break down inventory, reporting, or loyalty specifics by plan.
NCR Voyix does not publish pricing on its own site for either Aloha line. Third-party sources cite Aloha Cloud starting around $99/mo and climbing to roughly $175/mo, plus hardware and processing — Aloha Essentials is custom-quoted for larger deployments.

Aloha Essentials, the legacy enterprise line, is custom-quoted. Confirm current pricing directly with NCR Voyix.
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 NCR Voyix (Aloha POS).
Every order syncs to the kitchen screen the instant it is placed at the POS — live KOT is standard on every plan.
Aloha does offer kitchen workflow orchestration across dine-in, takeout, kiosk, and delivery channels — a genuinely broad feature set, though official materials don't clearly detail how this is packaged or priced across its plans.
One flat price: Rs.7,000/year, published on our website, no plan tiers to decode.
Aloha Cloud reportedly starts around $99/mo and climbs to roughly $175/mo as stations and features stack, plus hardware around $1,000/terminal and estimated card processing fees (~2.6%+$0.10 in person).

Aloha is a long-established, feature-rich platform; some reviewers describe a steeper learning curve and slower feature updates compared to newer cloud-native tools — a real consideration given how often restaurant staff turn over.
Support team based in Surat, reachable directly on WhatsApp and phone — same-day answers, not ticket queues.
Reviews cite mixed customer support experiences despite paid support contracts, with some multi-day response and terminal repair times reported; one comparison cited a G2 satisfaction score of 48% for NCR Voyix versus 83% for a competitor.

no pricing on NCR Voyix's own site
TufTable is a flat, published Rs.7,000 per year. NCR Voyix does not publish pricing for either Aloha line on its own site; third-party sources estimate Aloha Cloud at roughly $99-175/mo before hardware (~$1,000/terminal) and processing fees, while the legacy Aloha Essentials line is custom-quoted for larger operations.

Aloha is best known as a "legacy leader" with deep feature depth for complex, multi-format, multi-location operations — a real strength for chains that need it. For a single independent restaurant, TufTable is built for simplicity from day one: flat INR pricing, GST compliance, and no specialist training required to get running.

TufTable's published price is Rs.7,000/year flat.

Menu, table, and staff setup on TufTable typically takes under 30 minutes with onboarding support.
