Owner/Director Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Efficient cost control for the Entrepreneur" April 17, 2018 5.0 Pros MarketMan allows me to get food costs, pricing trends, even tax credits at the tip of my fingers and what's best is that it integrates with my Point of Sale and Accounting software so I don't even have to worry about those steps. Cons As with any other software, there are some limitations to what can be done, however, MarketMan team are ALWAYS there to support and provide a solution. Already I've recommended MarketMan to another colleague and it has changed the way he does business. Review Source Ken W. General Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Although overall MarketMan has helped our business it has also been disappointing in its failures." April 18, 2018 4.0 It has helped us reduce our cost of sale across both food & beverage and make our business more profitable. It allows us to monitor stock levels daily. Pros The fact that it is cloud based and is able to give us live results. The integration with iKentoo PoS and Xero (even though this has been problematic for months). Cons The very poor smartphone app - forces us to use laptops for stock counting etc. The poor response time to errors in the system - developers have taken months and to date issues are still not resolved. Review Source Juan Pablo S. CEO Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "It solved the problems I was having with stock control" April 17, 2018 5.0 Stock and recipe control Pros I liked that it is WebBased and I can access it where ever I am at. The ease of use is great and I have been recommending it. I am exited to see the new Menu feature. Cons I wish I could calculate the value of my stock at any given point in time.

Regional Executive Chef Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The last SaaS you will ever need, Market Man does it all!" April 5, 2022 5.0 Extremely satisfied with Market Man. Through this software we can have complete control and overview on our day to day operations. When utilized fully, you will have a transparent view of your COGS, Waste, Inventory Levels, Low Inventory Level Reminder Alerts, Batch Recipe Costing, Plate Costing, Sales, Purchase Log. Pros Dashboard gives you a great overview of every financial aspect of your business. Has a controller, you will have real-time data to allow you to make sound financial decisions, What I appreciate the most is how fast and easy it is to navigate from portal to portal and your work will always get saved, as the system will prompt you the save before exiting. When inputting Invoices using the manual option, it is extremely user-friendly to audit Inventory Items, Update Prices, Issue Credits and upload scanned Invoices. Cons I think the one thing that is missing from Market Man is the ability to make payments directly from Market Man. Having ACH or other payment methods built into Market Man's SaaS would be ideal for operators. Review Source LH Lottie H. Operations Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great software to take your business to the next level" March 8, 2022 4.0 Overall MarketMan has massively benefited out business and made recipe building, GP management and waste control much easier.

It's extremely helpful to have the ability to track costs of not only inventory items, but also menu items by building recipes to see the exact breakdown of costs and profit margins. Cons There are little inconveniences in the software that I would like to be fixed/improved. The development team is incredibly slow with implementing any of these requests, no matter how big or small. After 5 months we have yet to have anything fixed. Review Source BO Bryan O.

Owner Restaurants Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ordering Par Level" November 23, 2020 5.0 Good, would like to to integrate with Sage better and the interactive PAR levels as discussed previously. The different stock UOM for the same product makes it pretty difficult to keep control and count. Pros Online capabilities. The system is great to set top and the stock control is really impressive Cons The PAR levels should be interactive and look at the usage trend to order a 7day, 10 day or 14 day stock holding. We either over order or under order as seasons change. Alternatives considered [Platinum system](https://www.capterra.com/p/95936/Platinum-system/) Review Source MP Matthew P.
