A modern alternative to iLabPOS
iLabPOS has served Maltese retailers well since 2004. But if you need cloud access, delivery integration, and real-time multi-location visibility, it may be time to look at what a cloud-native POS can do.
Why businesses choose Twine over iLabPOS
Cloud vs on-premise
Twine runs in the cloud — access your data from anywhere, on any device. iLabPOS is installed locally on Windows PCs, limiting you to on-site access.
Delivery integration
Twine integrates directly with Wolt and Bolt, sending delivery orders straight to your kitchen. iLabPOS has no native delivery platform integration.
No upfront hardware cost
Twine runs on iPads and tablets you may already own. iLabPOS requires dedicated Windows PCs and a one-time licence fee starting from EUR 1,200.
Always up to date
Twine updates automatically in the background. iLabPOS updates require on-site intervention and may involve additional costs.
