GastroSystem vs. DISH POS
DISH POS is a till system for restaurants run by Metro AG. GastroSystem delivers till and ordering system from one provider, with no platform tie-in, no commission.
DISH POS is a POS system by DISH Digital Solutions, a subsidiary of Metro AG. It targets small and medium-sized hospitality businesses in German-speaking markets, offering POS functions, TSE integration, and connectivity to the DISH ecosystem. A fully independent ordering system with customisable branding and driver management is not part of its core offering.
Our verdict
DISH POS is a solid POS system backed by Metro AG — a reliable provider with a broad support network. However, operators looking for an independent online ordering system with customisable branding, driver management, and full customer data access will find a significantly more complete solution with GastroSystem at a flat monthly price.
Frequently asked questions about DISH POS alternatives
What is DISH POS?
DISH POS is a till system from DISH Digital Solutions, a subsidiary of Metro AG. It's aimed at small and mid-sized restaurant businesses and offers till functions, a TSE connection, and a link to the DISH marketplace for online orders.
Does DISH POS have its own ordering system?
DISH POS integrates with the DISH marketplace, which brokers online orders. But that means dependency on the DISH ecosystem and limited branding. GastroSystem offers a fully own ordering system under your brand.
What does DISH POS cost compared to GastroSystem?
DISH POS is usually licensed on request. GastroSystem states its prices openly: ordering system €99/month, the package with till, delivery and receipt printer connection €269/month. With no hidden costs.
Can I switch from DISH POS to GastroSystem?
Yes. You set up your menu fresh in GastroSystem and are online in under an hour. Till data doesn't need to be migrated. It's best to keep the DISH marketplace running alongside until most of your guests order directly with you, and only cancel then, independently of your running DISH contract.
Who is DISH POS suited for?
DISH POS suits businesses that are already in the Metro ecosystem and are looking for a well-known till system. Anyone who wants independence, their own branding and a complete ordering system with no commission is better served by GastroSystem.
