MediPOS vs HysabOne: which is better for a pharmacy in 2026?

MediPOS vs HysabOne is a comparison more pharmacy owners are making, because HysabOne now shows up when you search for pharmacy software in Pakistan. Both are Pakistani, both offer a 14-day free trial with no setup fee, and both talk about batches, expiry and FBR. They differ in what they are built around. HysabOne is a cloud accounting system with inventory and POS added in higher plans, sold to many kinds of business. MediPOS is built for pharmacies and medical stores, runs offline on the shop PC or in the cloud, and comes with the DRAP medicine list.

This comparison takes HysabOne's prices and features from its own website, its pharmacy page and its pricing page, checked on 25 October 2026, and MediPOS's from our pricing page.

The short answer

• The plan a pharmacy needs: HysabOne's "from Rs 3,499 a month" plan is Accounts, which has no inventory. Stock comes with Standard (from Rs 7,000 a month) and the counter with POS (from Rs 6,563 a month as listed). MediPOS has stock, batches, expiry and the counter on every plan.
• First year for one pharmacy: MediPOS Offline Basic Rs 23,750, paid once for life, or Cloud Basic Rs 23,750 for the year. HysabOne POS at its listed rate comes to about Rs 78,756 a year.
• Billing without internet: MediPOS Offline installs on the shop PC with its own database. HysabOne is cloud based; its POS plan lists an "offline mode".
• Medicines ready on day one: MediPOS comes with 80,000+ Pakistani medicines from the DRAP register. HysabOne lists salt and formula search, but does not say it comes with a medicine list.
• FBR: included in every MediPOS plan. HysabOne's pharmacy page says "GST and FBR compliance"; its pricing page does not list FBR on any plan.

HysabOne is ahead in some places, listed below.

Price in PKR

HysabOne's pricing page has three plans, with a toggle that saves 12.5% on yearly billing; it shows the "from" prices but not the yearly totals:

• Accounts: from Rs 3,499 a month. Unlimited users and branches, invoices and bills, ledgers, trial balance and expense reports, mobile app access. No inventory.
• Standard: from Rs 7,000 a month. Adds inventory, stock transfers between stores, stock adjustments and profit and loss.
• POS: from Rs 6,563 a month. Everything in Standard, plus the point of sale, barcode scanning, cashier management, customer loyalty and an offline mode.

There is no setup fee, and you can pay by bank transfer, JazzCash, EasyPaisa or card. Its pharmacy page adds that plans are "billed yearly".

MediPOS Offline runs on your own shop PC and is paid once, for life, with updates included and no yearly fee: Basic is Rs 23,750 for up to 3 users and 2 PCs, and Standard Rs 38,000 for up to 10 users and 5 PCs. MediPOS Cloud runs in the browser: Basic Rs 2,375 a month or Rs 23,750 a year, Standard Rs 5,250 a month or Rs 52,500 a year for up to three branches, and Chain Rs 14,250 a month or Rs 142,500 a year for up to ten branches with unlimited users. There is no setup fee.

Offline or cloud

Load-shedding and weak lines are why many pharmacies want their billing on the shop PC. The MediPOS Offline edition installs on the shop's Windows PC with its own database. Counter PCs connect over the shop network, and billing, stock, udhaar and printing need no internet. The Cloud edition is there for owners who want several branches in one account.

HysabOne describes itself as cloud based and usable "on a counter PC, laptop, or mobile". Its POS plan lists an "offline mode" for the counter; its website does not describe a desktop edition that keeps the whole shop's data on the PC.

Medicines, batches and expiry

MediPOS comes with 80,000+ Pakistani medicines from the DRAP register, with brand, generic (salt), strength, form and manufacturer, so a new shop picks what it stocks instead of typing a list; you can try the search. Every plan records batch and expiry on each purchase, sells the batch that expires first, and blocks expired batches at the counter. The expiry dashboard shows what expires in 7, 30, 60 and 90 days, with its value.

HysabOne's pharmacy page lists batch and expiry tracking with near-expiry alerts and reports, salt and formula search with alternatives, and "DRAP-ready records". It does not mention a preloaded medicine list, selling the earliest expiry first, or blocking expired stock.

Schemes, udhaar and the books

MediPOS spreads distributor bonus schemes (10+1), discounts, tax and freight into the landed cost of every medicine, so profit reports are right. Customer udhaar has credit limits and statements, and supplier payables, purchase returns and double-entry books (cash book, day book, profit and loss, balance sheet) are included.

HysabOne's strength is accounting: chart of accounts, manual journal vouchers, payables and receivables aging, fiscal year locks and trial balance are in every plan. Its website does not mention bonus schemes or customer credit limits.

Where HysabOne is ahead

• An Urdu interface: its pharmacy page lists one. MediPOS screens are in English.
• Unlimited users and branches on its Accounts plan, for a business that mainly wants the books.
• Full accounting in every plan, with manual journal vouchers and fiscal year locks, for owners who keep their own accounts in detail.
• Payment by card as well as bank, JazzCash and EasyPaisa.
• One system for other businesses: if the same owner also runs a non-pharmacy shop, one account may cover both.
