Functionality

Pros:

Easy to use- Customer service was always accessible but they gave me the wrong link of Health Canada for your references

Cons:

I figured out that the final values are strange and when followed it up with supporting team and references, I figured out that Menusano is using the old DV% tables of CFIA and FDA for calculating the data. The customer support gave me a wrong link of Health Canada which is not for the industry. Health Canada has made some changes in some regulations and numbers from 2016. The most updated references are for 2016 but Menusano is using the older references unfortunately. I can't trust anymore. Please update your references.

Vendor Response

Hi Gisella, thanks for your comment. We did update our values to reflect the new CFIA DV% calculations. We have also confirmed them with the CFIA. I'm sorry you didn't have a good experience with our software. We feel it would be fair to give you a refund for your one-month subscription in this case. Kind regards, The MenuSano Team

Pros:

We have been using MenuSano for over 2.5 years and it's been handy from the start. We sell pre-made salads to grocery store so we had to find a good and easy program to have our nutritional values on our labels. We are always creating new salads so our old and new recipes are always at the same place. We recommended to any new or older business!

Cons:

At first, it was a little bit overwhelming but you get the hang of it quickly. The only part at the moment that confuse me a bit is when I manually enter a new product.

Vendor Response

Thanks so much! We're thrilled to be a benefit to your business. Kind regards, Christine

Pros:

Ease of use compared to others on the market. The database is very helpful.

Cons:

Not always up to date on nutrition panel requirements (ie,. I don’t see a feature allowing the grouping of sugars in the ingredients list). The price is high compared to other programs. Database could be more comprehensive.

Easy to use

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

MenuSano is easy and intuitive to use. You don't need to watch videos or waste time learning a complex software

Cons:

I would prefer the nutrition content could be provided for each ingredient in a recipe, rather than just showing the recipes nutrition. For example, if a recipe I have is too high in calories, it would be helpful to see at a glance which ingredients are the greatest contributor of calories in order to modify it.

Vendor Response

Hi Eleah, Thanks for your comment! MenuSano does have a report on the recipes page that shows you the nutrition breakdown for each ingredient. We are adding the report to the Edit Recipe page soon. Warm regards, Christine Billinger

I wish I was able to combine 3 labels onto one label. For example, I have a mixed bag of dog treats that contains 3 flavors; it would be nice to do one label for the package instead of three labels.

The right product for the right application!

Our business was at a standstill until we could sort out our nutrition labeling requirements. MenuSano's software was so easy to use, we were into production of our nutritional labels in minutes, no small feat!

Functionality

Pros:

When we were obtaining our food safety certifications for Township 27, nutrition labeling became necessary. We were unsure of where to start or what to do. Many of the websites we researched claimed to provide all the answers and quite frankly didn't. Then we found MenuSano! MenuSano delivered on all fronts; nutrition labeling, ingredient sourcing, and all kinds of applications we hadn't even thought of. Sooo intuitive and easy to use, not sure where we would be without them!

Cons:

There are a number of food ingredients that are not listed. This isn't a huge issue however, as there is methodology to add new and custom ingredients along with nutritional facts, so our database can expand as we require.

Vendor Response

Eric, we are so excited about your startup! Thanks so much for the kind review :) Happy cooking, Christine
