Pro Tip:

Android devices offer superior background process management for local network discovery (MDNS), making them the perfect candidate for your site's central relay.

Common Hardware Questions

Do I need to buy gear from you?

Nope. One of our core missions is to stop the vendor lock-in. Buy your tablets from Amazon, your printers from eBay, or use what you already have in the drawer. As long as it can run a modern browser, it'll run TableCore.

What about internet outages?

Our offline-first architecture means your POS terminals can talk directly to each other and your kitchen printers over the local network even if your ISP goes down. That's why we suggest the Android relay for robust P2P communication.

Are there any devices to avoid?

We don't recommend very old Kindle Fire tablets or budget phones with less than 3GB of RAM. High-volume service needs responsive devices.
