Part of the problem is customer not wanting to update systems already in place (update to a new version of Aloha).
I work for the company that makes Aloha and I can see the newer products we are offering yet not many restaurants I frequent seem to be using the new versions.
We also make one for small business called Silver but I dont know how much has caught on.
Totally. There hasn't been an incentive for them to upgrade, so they haven't. As more people get into the space and do cool things on top of POS systems that play nice with developers, they might be more inclined to switch/upgrade so they can have the same cool features as everyone else.
The industry is definitely moving in that direction, but POS companies are behemoths that haven't had to innovate in the past 20 years, so it'll be slow and painful.
