Last.app vs Ágora 2026: Which POS for Your Restaurant in Spain

Last.app and Ágora embody the two generations of the Spanish restaurant POS: the cloud native born with delivery in its DNA versus the battle-tested classic with twenty years of dining rooms behind it and a dealer in every province. Both take orders and close tills; they shine and fail in opposite places, and picking the wrong one shows up every single service. The blunt comparison, criterion by criterion.

Head to head in 60 seconds

Where Last.app wins

1. Delivery without the tablet tower

Its founding reason: Glovo, Uber Eats and Just Eat land directly in the POS and the kitchen, with one menu synced across every platform (change a price once, it updates everywhere). If delivery matters in your P&L, this alone decides; it is the cure for the tablet chaos we describe here.

2. Real cloud

Live sales on your phone from the sofa, remote menu and price changes, a new site live in hours. Multi-channel operations (floor + delivery + QR tables + pickup) live in one system.

3. Onboarding, and English

Days, not weeks: remote onboarding, imported menus, and the most English-capable product and support of the Spanish natives, which for a foreign owner or international staff is not a footnote.

Where Ágora wins

1. The complex dining room

A two-floor restaurant with a terrace, tables merging and splitting, menu-of-the-day variants, banquets, bills split six ways: Ágora’s floor depth remains superior. It was built by and for the traditional Spanish restaurant.

2. Stock and recipe costing

Ingredient-level stock, per-dish costing, waste tracking and supplier ordering: if your margin is won in the kitchen (menu del día, volume), Ágora gives you the per-plate analytics Last.app only approximates.

3. The dealer who shows up

Ágora’s local dealer network installs, trains your staff, and appears when something dies on a Friday night. For the non-technical operator, a named human with a van is worth money, and the cloud natives don’t replicate it. The catch for foreign owners: that whole experience runs in Spanish.

4. Hardware freedom

Reuse the bar’s PC, mix Windows and Android, build to your budget. Last.app means the tablet ecosystem.

Real cost: closer than it looks

The subscriptions overlap (~€40-90/month both), so total cost is decided by the extras: with Ágora, dealer setup/licences and delivery integration modules; with Last.app, new hardware if you come from PCs, plus advanced modules. Ask both for an itemized quote including every integration you will use (delivery, reservations) and compare the full year, not the fee.

And from both: demand the written Verifactu compliance declaration (the invoicing rules, in English).

Verdict

• Delivery above 15-20% of sales, or a dark kitchen: Last.app, no debate. It is the exact problem it was born to solve.
• Traditional table-service restaurant, menu del día, recipe costing: Ágora, ideally with a good local dealer.
• Modern multi-channel spot (floor + QR + pickup + some delivery): Last.app for the single cloud system.
• Foreign owner or international staff: Last.app, for the English-capable product and support alone.
• Expanding group? Look at Revo too before deciding (in the general comparison).

Frequently asked questions

Can I migrate between them? Menus and products export/import without drama. Sales history doesn’t travel well: close the fiscal period on the old system and archive its reports.

Which is cheaper? They tie on subscription; the total depends on hardware, setup and integrations. Compare full-year itemized quotes.

Does Last.app work offline? Yes: an offline mode keeps charging and ordering, syncing when the connection returns. Ágora, able to run fully on-premise, is even more cut-proof.

Do both comply with Verifactu? Both makers have published their adaptation; get the responsible declaration in writing before signing, as with any invoicing system in Spain.
