We use Fourth to procure & manage inventory for food & beverage and SPA.

The product is user friendly and robust which has given the flexibility to strengthen our internal controls without spending too much time. The stocktake has significantly reduced due to the capability of the system to set up locations & the use of mobile scanners to do the stocktake. The GL interface has automated the process and eliminated manual posting, thus reducing manual errors and increasing efficiency.


  • Custom reports: It is very easy to link the tables and extract the required reports. We use it to verify the data entered (e.g. report to verify if particular recipes have been pushed to all the properties, dates of the fiscal calendar, etc.), compile MIS reports, etc.
  • Procurement: Integration with Trade Simple has played a significant role in increasing the efficiency in terms of quality of data, receiving & processing of invoices, updating of prices, etc.

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.

  • Procurement: Integrating some of the key suppliers with Trade Simple has saved labour hours.
  • Integration: GL Integrations have increased the efficiency and quality of data.
The support has improved a lot. The team knows what they are doing and aims to provides resolution within 24hrs.

The restaurant brand I work for uses Fourth across all of its sites to keep track of all inventory. What works well is its ability to keep track of all stock both in and out of the business.
  • The 'stock management' tab on the home screen is of particular use when keeping tabs on incoming deliveries into the restaurant.
  • The option to open and close your stock period is great as you have the chance to edit your stock at a moment's notice.
We have weekly stock takes in my company, and Fourth makes everything straightforward in that you can easily and quickly reflect back on the previous week's inventories, transfers, and stock periods. The one time I experienced a system shutdown during a stock take, I contacted Fourth and was assisted in a fast and professional manner, with the person I spoke to personally following up on everything with me through my own personal email.
  • Fourth certainly has an easy-to-use interface that becomes quickly more familiar the more you use.
  • With the quick options for me to see the state of my stock at any given time, Fourth has helped me in making decisions on when is necessary on buying more stock.
On the small number of times I have had to contact Fourth with an issue they have been swift and efficient in rectifying the problem. It always seemed personal and the same operator would always follow through with the issue until its conclusion.

Fourth is number one

It is used across the business for the purchasing and control of all food and beverage products. It helps address the issue of not achieving cost of sale targets as it contains all the necessary tools to control food and beverage to in turn maximise profits.
  • Links very well to the point of sale
  • Accurate and quick stock taking
  • Managing suppliers and products
  • Invoicing and cost price control
I've used other systems the past few years and every time I use Fourth again, it's so clear how brilliant it is for the hospitality industry. If you cannot provide the man power to maintain the system in your business it's not for you. The one issue with Fourth is if it gets messy and unorganised, it's difficult to clean up.
  • In doing weekly accurate stock takes it helps identify issues, action them and ensure we hit cost of sale targets.
  • Month end reporting is difficult for any hospitality group, having an accurate system with all the spend on food and drink helps our finance team turn around the P&Ls so much faster.
When I raise a case with Fourth, it's always answered within 24 hours.

We still have some issues with the counting app, the app deletes anything from someone counting on a computer so you cannot do a reconciliation. We need more help in setting up new EDI clients.
  • Locks down prices.
  • Staff find easier to use than competitor.
  • Can find staff that have used it before.
We are always trying to find something better with each new project, but staff retention and other suppliers' bad experience have led us to feel best in not great bunch.
Too long to get an answer.
