Bring your own hardware
Android tablet, iPad, an old laptop in the back office. As long as it runs a modern browser, it runs brasio.
vs TouchBistro
TouchBistro is iPad-only. brasio runs on whichever tablet you already own.
TouchBistro has done a beautiful job on iPad. The problem is the iPad itself — the renewal cycle, the lock-in, the fact your waiter app needs an iPhone too. brasio runs in a browser and treats the device as a commodity.
