Hardware — we supply it, install it and make it work
Sofrexa doesn't need special or expensive equipment. A regular Windows PC is enough to run your whole restaurant. We can supply everything you need — or use what you already have.
No expensive server — just a regular PC
Sofrexa runs on an ordinary Windows 10 or 11 computer, usually the cashier PC. It starts by itself when the computer is switched on. No special POS terminal and no monthly cloud server.
What we can supply
Everything for a smooth service
We recommend reliable, easy-to-find models — so a replacement is never far away.
Cashier PC (the server)
Any modern Windows PC or all-in-one. It runs Sofrexa for the whole restaurant and is where the cashier works.
Receipt printer (80 mm)
A thermal printer for receipts and bar tickets at the cashier. Network, USB or shared printers all work.
Kitchen printer
A second 80 mm printer for kitchen tickets with big, clear text.
Kitchen screen
A touch all-in-one PC, a monitor or a TV with a browser. It opens the kitchen screen automatically.
Waiter phones & tablets
Your staff's own smartphones work. We can also supply affordable Android phones or tablets that stay in the restaurant.
Cash drawer
Opens with cash payments; every opening is recorded in the activity log.
Wi-Fi coverage
Strong Wi-Fi in every corner — garden and terrace included — so waiters never lose the connection.
UPS (backup power)
Power cuts happen. A UPS keeps the PC, modem and router running so you can finish the service.
Backup drive
A USB drive or second disk for the nightly backup copy.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Can I use my current computer and printers?
Usually yes. Sofrexa works with standard Windows PCs and 80 mm thermal printers. We test your equipment and tell you honestly what can stay.
What happens if the cashier PC breaks?
Your data is backed up every night to a second place. Sofrexa can be installed on another PC and the latest backup restored, and website orders placed in the meantime are collected again.
Do waiters need special devices?
No. Any smartphone works over your Wi-Fi. Some restaurants prefer restaurant-owned phones or tablets — we can supply those too.
