One time for wastage for the ingredients and setting up recipes in to categories, portions is so simple. Adding photographs was always a problem to size etc, here just click and go. > > **Cons**: Not being able to go back a page like on a computer, when its gone its gone. Back-up function could be improved or explain what you need to do, loss ALL my recipes a couple of years ago. > > Many years using calcmenu personally. Introduced it to Ninety Nine company and now its part of policy and procedures. All company recipes are now on their version, food \& beverage. ----- ### "Very functional tool with high service performance" — 4.0/5 > **BJOERN** | *September 23, 2019* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The high reliability of the program and the possibility to connect further external tools. > > **Cons**: Too rigid in handling and the user friendliness which is very limited. Export of data cannot be declared by the user. Since all data fields are data fields, you should be able to select the desired exports yourself. The fact that there is no back key is very annoying. > > We were able to expand the program according to our needs. However, this requires a lot of support from EGS and cannot be done by ourselves. However, the support is very reliable and helpful. ----- ### "Slowly working software. You will pay a lot for data uploads" — 2.0/5 > **Sacha** | *July 8, 2022* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: customer service is okay if it in the boundaries of current software features > > **Cons**: Slow. Zero user experience. My price lists and ingredient descriptions are outdated, they charge a lot for mass upload. > > They will squeeze you once you use them for long enough ----- ### "professional kitchen software" — 5.0/5 > **Jacqueline** | *August 31, 2016* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is very user friendly and flexible . Saves a lot of time when you need to constantly work on a lot of recipes and at the same time manage your costs and inventory . > > **Cons**: I hope o can upload excel based recipe files into Calcmenu > > I have been using this program for years and have had several updates . From a home based private dining company we have grown into a restaurant group with several restaurants , a catering company and a dessert commissary . Calcmenu has been invaluable in helping me accurately cost my recipes , budget my market list and manage my inventory . It even contains nutritional analysis which came handy in a recent project I did which was a dessert book for diabetics . Adjusting recipes is always a breeze . ----- ### "Professional Recipe Software" — 5.0/5 > **Stacy** | *August 31, 2016* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use and easy to share the recipes. I also like that it is web based and we do not have to run it on one of our own computers. > > **Cons**: I found it difficult to print the first time I tried. I had to read the instructions. > > We use calcmenu for recipe development that includes cost, method of preparation, and nutrition information. We can also include images of the finished product. Calcmenu helps prepare food with a consistent, cost, taste and look. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/107613/calcmenu?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/107613/calcmenu) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
