Software Advice carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

CooksTime Review

Very good. Can't complain. We already discovered that some of our recipe cost were higher than expected so we were able to make a change and reduce the cost.

Functionality

Pros:

The support and the automation. It's also pretty simple to setup recipes. At first it seems more complicated than it really is but once you start, you realize its pretty easy.

Cons:

Nothing so far. They recently launched so they can be very helpful when it comes to support because they're always looking for feedback.

Reasons for switching to CooksTime

Liked the additional features for inventory, the POS connection and tracking labor cost. Plus the automation.
