    CrunchTime!
    CrunchTime! is well suited for non-franchised restaurant brands. When you have control of the end-user it makes deployment and use much easier. It is less suited for franchised restaurants because of the inability for the franchiser to require its use. Without end-user interaction some data points are not available. Some of the recent changes in the software have addressed this.

    I like it i think it makes the whole buying journey really smooth for the end customers , it’s easy to use for baristas and it’s actually better than most software’s out there.
    But the service is not great , for simplest if things they take too much time to rectify , i mean the live line for ordering related issues is good it’s more technical glitches and installation related issues that take more time.

    Cons
    CrunchTime!
    • Until recently we were unable to get accurate data from franchisees that are unwilling to use the product. That is changing with some new feature releases.

    I like the usability, for customers it’s easy to use even for admins it’s easy to extract reports , analyse performance. I didn’t give it 2 points because I think a lot of features can be added and the service can be improved. Also modules like inventory are too complicated for the users to do it themselves the team should take the initiative of getting it setup or have an easier way of getting started on that

    CrunchTime!
    We selected CrunchTime! many years ago because they were a relatively small company with a good product. We have grown with them. We have looked at competitors over the years and have not found a company that we would consider switching to.

    It was better priced , had more features and ease to use. It’s suited for all size of business. Especially smaller , all digital businesses. I also evaluated a few other tools and I remember Rista being an easy choice because i wanted the order confirmation and bills to go on WhatsApp and not messages which not a lot of these software’s were offering .

    Return on Investment
    CrunchTime!
    • The software has allowed us to maintain consistency of our products while helping to keep food cost down.
    • The software has allowed us to maintain quality and determine which stores are not properly executing our recipes which allows us to do customized training.

    • So i save cost of one billing resource that’s let’s say 15k per month per outlet where i pay Rista double that amount for a year so my 10month resource cost is saved
    • Negative impact which i think is very niches people feel hesitant to share their number and i think Rista should add a feature where sharing number isn’t compulsory as not everyone’s comfortable sharing their mobile number
    • The entire inventory module is too complicated to setup so while i have it for the past 2 years i still haven’t configured it
