RetailerOS vs Vyapar: billing, or the whole store?
Vyapar is good-value billing software. It starts at Rs 283 a month on annual billing, and it already tracks IMEI numbers and warranty periods, shares bills on WhatsApp and works offline. If billing is what you need, it is hard to beat on price. RetailerOS costs more because it runs the rest of an electronics retail business: it reconciles brand scheme cashback, files warranty claims through to settlement, runs repair job cards, and manages several stores from one login.

Questions
Does Vyapar track IMEI numbers?
Yes. Vyapar can store IMEI numbers for each phone and check warranty periods. RetailerOS does too; the difference is what happens next — RetailerOS files the warranty claim and tracks it to settlement, and reconciles brand scheme cashback.
Why does RetailerOS cost more than Vyapar?
Vyapar focuses on billing, accounting and stock. RetailerOS runs the wider retail operation — scheme reconciliation, warranty claims, repair job cards, staff and multi-store management — which is where electronics retailers usually lose time or money.
Can I move from Vyapar to RetailerOS?
Yes. Vyapar and spreadsheet imports are supported, and on the Chain plan the migration is done for you.
Is there a free plan to try it?
Yes. RetailerOS is free for up to 50 bills a month, with no card needed, so you can try it alongside your current software.
