Why businesses switch from SumUp to Kotao
Beyond basic POS
SumUp is great for simple payments. But for inventory, HR, CRM, and property management, you need separate tools. Kotao has it all.
Hotel-ready from day one
SumUp has no property management. Kotao handles rooms, guests, and channels alongside your restaurant POS.
AI-powered insights
Get automated business intelligence, demand forecasting, and staffing recommendations. SumUp offers basic reporting only.
Scale without switching
Growing from 1 to 50 locations? Kotao scales with you. SumUp's simplicity becomes a limitation at scale.
