Vendion vs Trivec: compare POS, service and the work around it

A full dining room asks more of your POS than a quiet demonstration. Two guests change tables, a starter needs to wait and a party wants to share the cost of a bottle of wine but pay for their meals separately. Those situations reveal how well a system fits your restaurant.

This comparison is written by Vendion. Information about Trivec comes from its own product pages, checked on 12 September 2026.

Trivec offers several restaurant service tools

Trivec's range covers POS, mobile ordering and payment, QR ordering, self-service and kitchen displays. Its offering extends beyond a fixed till. See Trivec's product overview.

HandyPay combines ordering and payment on a handheld device. Trivec describes bill splitting and orders sent to the bar or kitchen. Read about HandyPay.

Trivec also offers its own kitchen and bar display system, with order status, waiting times and control of course preparation. Digital kitchen workflows cannot reasonably be treated as exclusive to a newer supplier. See Trivec's kitchen displays.

Vendion brings POS together with reservations and staff

Vendion provides POS and order management alongside its own booking and staff modules. You can follow the work from reservations and service to sales and recorded working hours in one system. Marketing, online ordering and advanced analytics can extend the setup. AI is included.

The value should be visible in daily work. Ask us to demonstrate a changed booking, how the information is used during service and how you review the evening's sales and staffing afterwards. Explore Vendion's POS.

Compare the tasks staff repeat most often

Use the same menu and tasks in both systems:

• Take a tableside order with modifiers and clear dietary requirement notes.
• Send drinks and food to the correct stations and control when the next course starts.
• Move items between bills and divide a shared item between guests.
• Correct an order after it has reached the kitchen.
• Process a refund and check how it appears in the daily report.

Ask the kitchen team to assess screen readability, change indicators and acknowledgement. Ask front of house to assess the steps needed to close a typical bill. Also test the terminal's size, battery and handling in the place where it will be used.

Reservations, hotels and other connections

Trivec publishes an integration directory. If you already use a booking, staff or hotel system, confirm the exact connection being proposed. Request a demonstration of what data is transferred and how failures are detected.

Apply the same standard when assessing Vendion. If hotel guests need to charge restaurant purchases to their room, that specific function and hotel connection must be confirmed. A general integration promise is not enough.

Review the reports and guest records you can export if you switch later. This depends on contracts, permissions and actual export facilities. The name on the POS does not settle the question.

Make support and reliability concrete

Vendion provides staffed support around the clock for all paying customers. Contact details are on the support page. Ask Trivec to explain support for its complete proposal, including external components.

Review what happens when the internet connection, payment service or printer fails. Which tasks can continue, and how is normal operation restored? Rehearse the procedure with staff. Whether software uses the cloud or local equipment does not, on its own, explain how an interruption is handled.

Compare prices for the same restaurant

Vendion's price list distinguishes POS stations, equipment and additional modules. Modules have no fixed commitment period. Request an equivalent breakdown from Trivec and include payment fees, support, onboarding and existing contracts that will continue running.

Base your choice on the workflow you tested and the complete cost you confirmed. See Vendion live, using your most important service situations.
