About FranchiseBlast

FranchiseBlast is a cloud-based solution designed to help small to large businesses manage franchises and analyze performance through audits. Key features include secure data storage, scorecarding, KPI tracking, checklist creation, survey and feedback collection.

The application comes with a benchmarking module that enables franchisors to track the growth of franchisees based on various key performance indicators such as sales, purchase history, loyalty programs and more. Franchisees can use the system to conduct periodic self-assessments and evaluations, ensuring compliance and brand consistency across all business aspects. Using its configurable dashboards, employees can add data from multiple sources and visualize trends based on audits trails, customer satisfaction rates and financial performance.

FranchiseBlast provides API-based integration, helping users import/export data and synchronize systems with third-party platforms. The solution is available on a monthly subscription and support is provided via email and phone.

FranchiseBlast auditor review

Overall it is a great tool for auditing.

Functionality

Pros:

It is easy to navigate and click through the questionnaires. Being able to view executive summaries or only failed questions. Very organized and works offline when data service is not available.

Cons:

Every now and then some glitches and maintenance issues in the middle of the business day - slows things down. Sometimes pictures would not upload and unable to navigate to next page by clicking the next page button. I wish it would be easier to change date and time on audits. Sometimes changes are required to certain audits then the actual real time and or date is not accurately reflected.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the honest review! Nobody's perfect and I'm happy to discuss issues and feature requests with you. We indeed capture the both the start & end date of the audits and show these on the audit reports. When going back and making changes at a later date, it does affect these dates and I believe you're requesting for it to remain unchanged. I sent you a quick private note to learn more about your needs so I can communicate this to our product manager. As for the glitches/maintenance issues, we did observe a few months ago that your team was not being redirected to a secondary server during some preventative maintenance whereas our other users were redirected without issue. We believe it may have something to do with the devices your company is using, but aren't 100% sure. As we haven't pinpointed the root cause for this situation yet, I did also reach out privately to investigate further. Thanks, Jason

Using Franchise Blast to perform my audits has made my life so much easier. I can't even believe I used to do a 14 page audit on hard copy and enter it all in on an Excel spreadsheet

Pros:

I have had some issues in the past and CSR has been so fast in returning my calls!! Usually I am in the field, trying to start and audit or in the middle of an audit and really needing any answer quickly so I can proceed. He always comes through for me. He recently put an audit that we only use in our corporate stores on Franchise Blast (for just 25 stores) and it has made my life so much easier.

Cons:

I have had no issues lately. I wish we had a timing feature build into our ticket time section so I do not have to use my phone and the iPad simultaneously.

Vendor Response

Hi there - the team of us at FranchiseBlast are glad that the tool is making your work life more positive. We did hear about this feature request before and we added it, because we observed our customers multi-tasking like you said. So - we hope that the timer feature will help. Reach out to our support team to learn all about it!

Great Software

I am asked to increase storage but that might be the plan we are on. I am not sure how to do add tasks. Lately I am having a lot of issues with Syncing data, audits to not save all data from time to time. Would like to better understand what modules we are currently paying for and what we are not using as well as what aren't using and what is available.

Great System

Very functional. If you want something that just works great and you do not need to make it overly image heavy or personalized with unnecessary additions and imagery this is the program for you.

Excellent software!

I would highly recommend FranchiseBlast (and any other product by LavaBlast Software) to any franchise, especially those just starting out. Our previous system wasn't well adapted to the franchise environment, and we are very happy we switched to FranchiseBlast early on in our growth.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Customer support

Pros:

Without FranchiseBlast, we would not have been able to grow our franchise effectively in the past years. Furthermore, as our e-commerce websites & warehouses run on LavaBlast software, we have a fully integrated solution that is unique for our business. This has enabled us to grab a huge market share in the wholesale teddy bear space while keeping costs down as we have a fully automated order processing system.

Cons:

FranchiseBlast isn't a commercial off-the-shelf application and, thus, its strengths (customization) is its weakness (price). However, we've ended up saving money even if it was a more expensive solution that the competition because we didn't need to hire half a dozen administrative assistants to support our day-to-day operations.

Cons:

Daily reports are great when there new information, daily reports that are the same as the previous day (s) can be redundant and create a habit of just filing or deleting.

Vendor Response

Hey Greg, Thanks for the review! Just a quick note on the daily digest: if you're receiving the daily digest even if there were no new audits on the previous day, it's likely a symptom that there's a pending task assigned to you or an overdue task associated to someone in your territory. If you need assistance clearing out old tasks in bulk that were mistakenly left open, or if you'd like to customize what is included in your daily digest, feel free to contact support and we'll help you out!
