Shopify POS has a monthly subscription model and a complex multi-tier pricing plan. The support timings for QuickBooks are restricted to Monday to Friday, 6am to 6pm PT and it doesn’t come free as well ($89.95 per month or $299.95 per year). Shopify tips the scale though with its free 24x7 live rep support and extensive documentation. There is robust support for both POS systems in the form of emails, phone, community forums, and abundant online resources such as videos, tutorials, and webinars. Shopify is a more fuss-free, light-weight approach but needs good connectivity to function seamlessly.

However, if you’re committed towards maintaining that setup, this is a viable option. You’ll also need to continue maintaining your OS and other system requirements in sync with the POS software. Its tight dependency on the Windows ecosystem feels restrictive. QuickBooks’ desktop-oriented approach makes it unsuitable for small start-ups.

Updates in QuickBooks aren’t as continuous and hassle-free as Shopify and the software has been called out by customers for slowness and performance issues.

But businesses looking to use iPads or Android tablets will be disappointed. Intuit has added specific support for Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and a few other tablets. QuickBooks isn’t optimized for usage in mobile devices, which brings down its usability for businesses who might want to set up temporary mobile kiosks. Intuit recommends 1 GB disk space and at least 4GB of RAM for a single workstation installation with at least a 2GHz processor for a single user and a 2.8GHz processor for multiple users.

It’s compatible with all editions of Windows 10, Windows 8.1 (Update 1), Windows 7 SP1 as well as Windows Server 2008, 2011, 20. QuickBooks POS takes a diametrically opposite approach as a software that you download from the cloud and run on your computer (Windows only). App updates roll in automatically ensuring you’re working with the most recent version. This makes it a highly mobile option that can be used in physical stores, pop-ups, trade shows, as well as in online stores. It’s designed as a cloud-based app and can be quickly installed on a smartphone or a tablet. Shopify POS isn’t desktop-based, and that can be considered an advantage or a disadvantage based on what you’re used to. It also has a desktop-centric approach, which means that QuickBooks POS integrates with QuickBooks Desktop but not with QuickBooks Online.

While QuickBooks has more comprehensive analytics and reporting, it stands odd for its lack of basics such as a customer-facing UI and robust support for payment (need to install an additional Go Payments app to sync). The features are largely comparable between QuickBooks POS and Shopify POS. Of course, that it integrates nicely with the QuickBooks ecosystem of financial software gives it an edge. It also impresses with an end-to-end employee management function that includes tracking commissions and tying the data to payroll. QuickBooks POS shines over Shopify POS in inventory management, automatic purchase order generation on pre-set levels, and work order and sales order tracking. Although its Basic edition has some level of custom reporting, QuickBooks boasts of a strong suite of reporting from its Pro edition onwards. QuickBooks too is similar in that many of its attractive features come with its Pro and Multi-Store editions. The challenge, however, is you get to enjoy advanced functions such as smart inventory management, insight-based recommendations, forecasting, report generation, toggling between multiple carts, and pick-up and return in store only in the Shopify POS Pro edition. Shopify POS Pro has a vast feature difference in comparison with Lite.
