Comparison

A CStoreOffice alternative with pricing you can read before you call

Petrosoft has been building CStoreOffice for more than twenty years and it covers a wide surface area, from tobacco rebates to multi-location P&L. It is a serious product, and for a lot of chains it is the right one. What Petrosoft does not do is publish what it costs: the path to a number runs through a demo and a quote. If you run one store or a handful and you want to see the price, sign up, and be pulling POS data this week, Neo Office is worth putting side by side.

You want the price before the demo

Petrosoft asks you to request a demo or an ROI estimate to get a number. Neo Office lists Regular at $29.99 and Plus at $49.99 per location per month on the pricing page, so you can size the bill for your sites in about a minute. Only the Enterprise tier is quoted.

You are a single store or a small group

Petrosoft says CStoreOffice serves operators from one location up to chains of 500 or more. Breadth like that is useful at scale and it can be more surface than a two-store operator needs. Neo Office is scoped to independents and small groups.

You would rather not sign a term

Neo Office is month-to-month with no contract and a 30-day money-back guarantee, billed by card or ACH through Stripe. Petrosoft does not publish its contract terms, so ask what commitment a quote assumes.

What you get with Neo Office

Fuel margins move by the hour, vendors drop invoices daily, and your POS only tells you what already happened. Neo Office is the layer that turns those three streams into decisions you can make from the counter or the truck.

Pricing you can check yourself

Two priced tiers, per location, per month, printed on the site. Start at $29.99 for price book, Send to POS, sales viewing and basic reports, and move up to $49.99 only when you need fuel pricing and EDI. The mobile app comes with every tier, and Enterprise is quoted per group.

Passport, watched

A small connector app on your existing back-office PC keeps the POS talking to Neo Office. Every sync is monitored, failures retry on their own, and the send history shows exactly what went to the register and when.

Invoices that post themselves

EDI invoices land automatically from Chambers & Owen with line-item detail. Snap a photo of a paper invoice and OCR handles the rest. Cost changes surface as price-change suggestions instead of a spreadsheet chase.

Fuel pricing with a paper trail

Set cash and credit by grade, let blended midgrades calculate themselves, and keep a full change history. Fuel Survey shows what the stations around you are posting before you move.

One price book, everywhere

Centralized items push to the POS on your schedule. Scan barcodes from the phone, flag age-restricted items, and let Neo AI draft batch changes that a person still has to approve.

The day, closed properly

Real-time dashboards, till summaries, day-close, lottery packs and settlements, time clock, finance and workflows. If the internet drops, the mobile Offline Sale register keeps ringing.
