    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.

    The product is user-friendly in automating the tasks, managing the master data through central purchasing, and creating custom reports. It lacks certain basic functionalities like a record of wastages, sending automated emails confirming if the automatic tasks (scheduled tasks) have been completed or not, and the ability to automate the nutrition information, etc.

    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.

    • It would help massively to see via Enterprise and menu items what ones are no longer active, to keep the data tidy.
    • When you take purchase reports from Enterprise and select to organise them by category, show the name of the category on the actual report download.
    • Quick and easy upload/download of supplier products for correcting prices, descriptions, prices in bulk.

    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.
