Enlite POS has been a trusted option for dry cleaners since 2015. Laavo takes a different approach: simpler setup, lower price, and WhatsApp notifications built in.

Quick verdict
Pick Enlite POS if: High-volume dry cleaning plants or shops that want to invest in automated garment assembly hardware, or operations that need deep POS customisation beyond what standard platforms offer
Pick Laavo if: you want the simplest setup, the lowest price (€10/month), and WhatsApp notifications — with a 3-month free trial and no credit card required.
Both work well for: single-location dry cleaners managing orders, customers, and day-to-day shop operations.

We think Laavo is the better fit for most independent dry cleaners — but these are genuine advantages worth knowing before you decide.
Enlite's LARA (LED Assisted Rapid Assembly) is a patented hardware-integrated system that guides staff through garment sorting using LED indicators, reportedly reducing assembly time by up to 40%. No other standard dry cleaning software offers an equivalent. For high-volume operations where assembly throughput is a bottleneck, this is a category-specific capability Laavo does not have.
With 300+ configuration options, Enlite is one of the most customisable POS platforms in the dry cleaning space. Shops with non-standard workflows, complex pricing structures, or unusual ticket formats may find it easier to adapt Enlite to their process than a simpler, more opinionated tool.
Enlite's built-in payment processing integrates with Stripe, Square, PayPal, and EVO Payments, supporting in-store card payments natively. Laavo does not include integrated payment processing, so if you want to accept cards directly through your POS without a separate terminal, Enlite handles that out of the box.
Numbers and specifics — not adjectives.
Laavo's pricing is publicly listed: €10/month or €96/year. Enlite requires you to contact their sales team for pricing across all three tiers. Laavo's 3-month free trial starts immediately with no credit card.
Enlite offers a free trial of unspecified duration. Laavo's trial runs for three full months — enough to cover a quarter of real order volume, seasonal variation, and full team workflows before any payment.
Laavo includes multi-store management at €10/month. Enlite's multi-store features are restricted to their Enterprise tier.
Laavo's one-click WhatsApp flow requires no API setup and no extra cost. WhatsApp is not listed as a notification channel on Enlite's current site.
Laavo supports 10 languages. Enlite's language support is unclear — English is confirmed; German, Portuguese, and Spanish appear on some third-party listings but are not confirmed on Enlite's own site.
