Foodzilla Reviews
Pros
I like the database of recipes, the fact you can save your favorites, but also have the option to search the web or use Foodzillas nutrition and dietetics database too is great.
I like the visibility with the customer end and the backend and with a few more tweaks it will be become the best piece of software for nutritionists and dietitians.
The support and their responsiveness and willingness to fix issues quickly and effective is unmatched when it comes to competitor products.
The layout and emojis make nutrition planning fun, and the customization Features are nice.
Cons
No food composition for Arabic food. More Arabic food recipes.
But the lack of meals and how to find and add was not good.
We cannot yet send PDF versions of the meal plans to clients who have no capability to engage with the application. Issues with loss of data still occurs from time to time.
Cannot edit a recipe easily to change from regular bread to GF bread if someone was coeliac, need to enter the recipe from the beginning again.
"Amazing customer service"
Pros: Have just started with Foodzilla and the level of service has been AMAZING! They have helped me out so much.
Cons: None yet as only just starting with it now with our members at our gym.
"Exceptional customer experience "
Overall: Overall the experience using Foodzilla has been fun! I really enjoy the app and it has been a great asset to my business. It is easy to use for both myself and my clients and I thoroughly enjoy every day I am able to utilise this within my business. My clients appreciate the ease of use and set up also so it really adds to their enjoyable experience with both my program and the Foodzilla app!
Pros: The ease of use for both myself and my clients. The customer service is exceptional and exceeds expectations. Your replies are prompt and personalised and that is very much appreciated.
Cons: There isn't much I would say I don't like about Foodzilla at all, the datatbase is broad and the app has inbuilt most of the services and tools I use already to help my clients. Not to mention each month the app has ample improvements and additions which is so needed and a must to grow in the health and fitness industry! :)

"Beware, not all that shines is gold."
Pros: I loved the aesthetics of foodzilla and relatively easy learning curve. The features (if they worked) would be world class. And the price would have been good value...again if it worked.
Cons: The auto generator expected someone to have 4 times the total amount in a recipe for 5 people (totally 20 servings). A recipe was listed as having approx. half the kj as the same ingredients that I input in a separate recipe; showing that the calculations could be off as much as 50% which is very important in weight management. There were 4 instances of recipes in the 2000cal vegan meal plan that have non-vegan ingredients. That brings me to the PDF of the meal plan that I downloaded has the correct recipes and meal plan however the shopping list includes items that were removed including the non-vegan ingredients. It also displays only one recipe per meal e.g. breakfast, even if there are 2-3 meals/foods listed as to be consumed at that meal which is shown by '(+1)' or 2 etc. with ZERO indication as to what the other meal/food is supposed to be! I saved the template periodically so as to not lose my work (each time it said, 'saved successfully' as it's not easy to balance the macros then servings so I didn't want to lose it. Unfortunately when I opened it up to download the plan, meals that had been swapped out were back in their original position together with the new meal meaning that days with around 8,000kj were now 10-14,000kj. I then had to try and remember the game of Tetris I originally played to get everything all sorted and thought I'd finally gotten home safe when it downloaded successfully only to encounter the issue in points 4 & 5. {I haven't had that problem since as I save multiple times and copied it to a new plan} AND whilst they would respond within 24hrs previously (I have contacted them a handful of times) now that I have requested a refund I haven't heard from them after 3 emails in 12 days.
"Foodzilla"

Vendor Response
"So Far so good"
Overall: So far so good, this seems to solve my business needs when it comes to delivering nutrition plans to clients. Although at first glance it seemed a bit messy it is actually quiet easy to work around and creating plans is simple.
Pros: I'm only on the free trial at the moment but all looks good. I like that you can create your own meal plan or auto generate one. Its critical to my business that i can easily produce nutrition plans and quickly Foodzilla delivers on that. For me this seems to combine many of the best features of its competition.
Cons: At an initial glance the main dashboard was a bit confusing, It seemed a bit messy to me, but i soon worked my way around it. Some of the food in the auto generated plans are a bit out there 'Spinach sandwich'
