HONEST COMPARISON
Vyapar or ByteCraft POS: who each suits.
What Vyapar says it offers
According to its own website, Vyapar offers GST billing, inventory and accounting for small businesses. It runs on Android, iOS, Windows and Mac, supports offline billing that syncs when you reconnect, and has a free plan on mobile with a free trial on desktop. Check vyaparapp.in for its current plans and prices.
When Vyapar may suit you better
You want accounting, not only billing, in the same app. You need to bill without internet. You mostly bill from your phone. You want a free plan to start.
When ByteCraft POS may suit you better
You run a busy counter with several staff and want each person to have their own login and permissions. You have, or plan, more than one branch. You run a restaurant and a shop together. You want someone to come and set it up in Chennai and train your staff in Tamil.
What ByteCraft POS does not do
It is not full accounting software: there is no balance sheet or profit and loss statement, so your CA keeps using their accounting package. It runs in a web browser and needs internet to bill. It does not create e-invoices (IRN) or e-way bills.
What ByteCraft POS costs over a year
₹1,500 one-time setup plus ₹600 a month: ₹8,700 in the first year and ₹7,200 a year after that, for the whole business with no per-user fee. Each extra branch is ₹1,000 one-time.
SIMPLE PRICING
See pricing ₹1,500 setup, then ₹600 a month.
One price for the whole business, Retail or Restaurant or both. Extra branches are ₹1,000 one-time each, never a per-user fee.
