Great Product
One major problem we have solved with FreshCheq is that our food temps and logs are getting done on a daily basis consistently.
Pros
I am so glad that I purchased this software. It is very easy to use and set up. I think it is a great value for what you get. They are always updating the software to make it easier for your operation. We use it for our food logs and also for check list and closing responsibilities. Its great when your food inspector comes in and you have all your temp logs all in one place, and can quickly access it for them. It is also a great resource for accountability for your team members. I like the app that they just created. You can also know take photos.
Cons
There isn't anything that we don't like about FreshCheq

A product in development that doesn't need extra hardware, but requires some patience.
Two years use in a multi-location restaurant franchise.
Pros
It doesn't require anything special in the way of hardware to work. You can use any cell phone, tablet or computer. Some other temperature checking services require you to purchase proprietary thermometers etc for them to work. It doesn't take long to teach others how to use the product. It is fairly rudimentary in its interface.
Cons
This product is unfinished. It doesn't allow for on-the-fly changes to how it is used or the order in which it is used. Reporting is often faulty- it will show you that the process is not complete when it is. Dependent on the quality of internet access versus being a true standalone product.

Save paper, and time by using FreshCheq
FreshCheq has helped make sure that we stay organized and current with taking daily temperatures.
Pros
It's user friendly. No mess of paper, records daily, weekly and monthly data. Able to communicate via text, email if a task needs or wasn't completed.
Cons
It would be nice to have a feature where you could click and drag an item into a spot instead of using up and down arrows. It's alittle time consuming.

Very Self explanatory, puts you in to a routine with daily checks rather quickly.
it makes me accountable to my daily routine, and the necessary tools needed to run an efficient operation.
Pros
This program is a great addition to our team. It saves greatly on amount of paperwork that we used on a daily basis. It gives you all your resources and tools right in the palm of your hand. Very quickly to catch on, and become a tool, part of daily routine.
Cons
The only thing I wish I had more control over, is access to tweak features, or make necessary changes according to my store.

Response from FreshCheq

Thank you for your review, Vanessa! Each store has the control to customize their logs and reports, unless otherwise stipulated by your store owner or the franchise. I recommend discussing your proposed log changes with your owner, who has permissions to make the changes.

Overall it is a decent system and easy to use which means it makes it easy to train new team members on how to use the system
Pros
It is easy to use, and saves money on paper and toner.
Cons
Server tends to run slow at peak hours, would also be nice if we were able to set up reoccurring alerts to remind us to do start Freshcheq not just when we miss doing Freshcheq.

Has great potential, am expeirencing a few software bugs.
Knowledge of what is going on in restuarants I am not currently in.
Pros
Ease of use, speeds up line checks, holds staff accountable. Pro has to be 100 characters...come on.
Cons
Cannot operate offline, there are comparable products that allow up to three days of storage when no internet is accessible. Occasionally the line check will be completed and logged within the time frame but a notification is still sent out and it is logged as an additional log.

Response from FreshCheq
Replied December 2017
Thank you for your comments and suggestions. Please contact me immediately should you experience any software bugs. We have our developer on standby 24/7 for any technical issues. In development, we considered allowing offline logging, but our beta testers agreed that offline logging would diminish the accountability factor that FreshCheq brings to our customers. I will reach out to you personally to make sure that your logs are functioning correctly.

So far we have had nothing but a great experience with Fresh Cheq. It is super easy to use.
It's a great way to record temperatures for safe food handling!!!
Pros
The ease of use is probably the best quality. It is super simple to record the temperatures, and also to change the things being temped when you need to. For a restaurant like ours that changes the menu every few weeks, this is very hellpful.
Cons
Really the only thing I don't like is that once you type in a temperature there is not a way to go back and change a temperature once recorded. When you have a perfect streak going, it's really sad when you accidentally hit a number a get a failing score for a 14 degree temp, when you meant to type in 144!

Response from FreshCheq
Replied February 2018
Hi Tyler, thank you for your review. The platform does not allow temps to be changed so that there is a higher level of accountability. But, we don't want you to lose your streaks, so if you type in a temp in error, just reach out to me and I will correct it so that your streak stays intact!

It’s really nice and fast. We used to have to do it all by paper and this is more convienant
Pros
No paper trail, allows multiple ppl to use it, can look up how many you have missed
Cons
Need to go on a computer to see what days you have missed. Hard to read it on the phone. If you type in the wrong temp you can’t go back and change it

Overall, using FreshCheq has been a positive experience and convenient addition to our business.
It has eliminated all food safety log paperwork. Employees are now excited to use the tablet to do safety logs, rather than bummed about writing it down. Very convenient.
Pros
Eliminates all paper records. Sends text message reminders to users. Easy to configure to fit your business. Multiple reports to break down check/log usage. Portable functionality when used on a tablet. Has a log streak feature to compete with other businesses. Customer support is fast and reliable.
Cons
No app as of yet, so you have to use the web page. This can be troublesome on a tablet. Requires internet access.

Great product, great value, great service!
FreshCheq has been a great addition to our restaurant. It keeps all of my managers focused on food safety and makes it quick and simple to make food safety a priority.
Pros
FreshCheq has helped us stay consistent with our temperature logs and food safety. Since starting to use FreshCheq we have not missed a single temperature issue on our food safety evaluations.
Cons
The new app solved all of the issues we had. The new app makes using FreshCheq even more simple.

We love FeshCheq!
Pros
FreshCheq is very easy to use and has been a huge help to get our temp logs more consistent. I love that it will send you a reminder text before you are about to miss a log. That helps ensure that they get done and are not forgotten about
Cons
If we close due to weather or a holiday, we have to manually turn every log off for the day and then go back and turn them on for the next week. Would be nice if there was an easier way to do that.

Saves time and paper
Pros
This is a very effective way to report temps and inspect the restaurant throughout the day. It is efficient in comparison to pen and paper. Saves printing copies daily which saves ink and paper.
Cons
Corrections should be allowed at the end of the questionnaire. It would be nice if there was a list of fails at the end instead for having to do them individually as many products may have been in the same conditions.

Ease of Use
We use it for food quality line checks. Easily able to go from product to product cuts down on time vs. other platforms that malfunction or take time processing.
Pros
The app is relatively easy to use to perform each task.
Cons
Needing to put a PIN to perform each of the tasks involved. Once signed in, it would make sense to be able to navigate from task to task without needing to re-enter a PIN.

Response from FreshCheq

Adam, Thank you for your review. Please give us a call, 1-855-581-7747. The PIN is there so multiple user can use the same tablet in the restaurant. However, if this is creating a problem and you assign the task to one employee or compete the task yourself, we can show you how to turn the PIN off for convenience.

It is very easy to use when I'm at work.
Organizational skills, getting the crew to understand business, keeping everything for records, and able to keep things in one place to find it easier.
Pros
It helps my company stay organized and helps us keep up with inventory and task that need to be completed.

useful for accountability.
making sure i am able to hold my managers accountable for what temps they are recording and making sure they are checking each item.
Pros
I love how organized it keeps us. both with making sure they are getting done but also accountability so they are true numbers. being able to see exactly who did what check at what time helps us be more accurate.
Cons
it is clunky on tablets. Especially when setting up lists and what order you would like to view items. Also hard to pull items off your list. we have LTOs that are constantly moving and getting any line check changed is a hassle.

I don't have to worry about losing a paper copy of our food temps. The food inspector loves to come in and just grab the computer and look at our reports.

By doing Freshcheq you are checking equipment and food to make sure the temperature is correct.
That are stores are checking tempertures daily. Knowing if we have issues in a store with tempertures.
Pros
Get email that the stores have done the tempertures. Know that a piece of equipment is not up to temperture. Managment is checking the equipment to make sure it is working correct. They have to re check if they put a ewrong number in.
Cons
Getting the stores to do the tempertures daily. They don't understand it important to do. Getting the stores to do it daily.

Pros
Freshcheq is a great program that saves greatly on the amount of paper used on a daily basis. Before freshcheq, we used almost a half a scane on paper printing our check lists. Now I can easily walk my line with my checklist in hand.
Cons
I wish that I had more access to make changes to the setup of my check lists. I also wish we could organize it better.

Overall we like freshcheq just wish you could go back and edit an entry.
Pros
It is so much better than paper line checks. Makes the line checks more time efficient. Easier to train staff on.
Cons
I do not like that once you enter in a temp you can not go back and edit. I have accidentally entered in a 14 instead of a 140 and can't go back and edit this without starting a whole new line check.

Hi Taylor, thanks for your review. There is an option to re-enter the previous item. Since FreshCheq is an accountability app, it would be counter productive to allow entire logs to be edited.

Generally very easy to use. Lags on occasion but not a huge deal.
Allows us more flexibility when completing line checks. Can get them done faster with more than one person as well.
Pros
The site is accessible on any phone, tablet, or pc and multiple people can work on the same check or different checks for the same period at once.
Cons
The site occasionally lags which can cause issues when on a touch screen phone like a temperature not being correct when you hit enter. Generally fixable by redoing last measure but can be annoying,

Good tool
Pros
It is very user friendly to teach and use. Very friendly app that you can just use on your phone or a tablet to walk through the kitchen and check while doing it
Cons
Wish you could use the number pad vs touching the number because a bit sensitive . At times it is a bit lagging

So far it has been good.
Saves me time and saves on the stores bottom line.
Pros
It is very easy to use. Also has been very reliable. Saves time and money in office supplies because you no longer have to print the checklists.
Cons
I feel like there should be a list review at the end of each checklist just in case you accidentally put the wrong number in and didn't notice. You can click redo item but that is only effective if you notice it.

From jump fresh cheq has been super simple. Easy to navigate without any training.
The only problem I've ever run into was on a holiday that we were closed I didn't think of shutting it off for the day but luckily I was in the store to fix it.
Pros
It's super simple and easy for all managers to use. The best thing is that it sends texts to all the managers when temps are not taken.

Easier to track & less wasted paper.
Pros
This program is so easy to use from the start. It’s easy to show to new staff members.
Cons
Sometimes it takes a little while to go to next section but I think it may have to do with our internet.

Food Safety - Made Simple
Pros
Simplicity at its finest... so easy to use and learn. Helps oversee food safety by easily recording food temperatures and other.
Cons
One downside to the software is usuabilty when using on mobile phone. Make it “mobile”friendly.

Hi Joshua, Thanks for your review and for your business. We are converting FreshCheq to a mobile app within the next couple of months and we think that this may address your comment about mobile responsiveness.

Great idea
FreshCheq has grown and become more user friendly. I think there are still some design pieces that need to be implemented however they are responsive to change and I can see them ironing out those kinks.
Pros
It’s nice to have the ability to have shift tools in the palm of your hands especially as all aspects of a store seem to be turning that way.
Cons
The reporting system is slow and clunky. It is difficult to utilize the program to fix issues that you see as the only way to “pass” a selection is to say how you fixed it.

Kyle, Thank you for your perspective. Our team would like to walk you through some new features that may improve your experience. Please contact me and I will set up a time to review reporting. Also, we are working with Buffalo Wild Wings corporate to add some new features that will benefit all FreshCheq customers. Our development pipeline is driven by our customers needs.

Great!
Pros
We love FreshCheq. It completely changed the way we keep our temp logs. The reminders keep us accountable, which is wonderful. It’s great being able to see what our food waste is costing us, down to the penny.
Cons
The only downfall is that we’re unable to go in and edit a temperature after it’s been entered if someone hits the wrong button.

Not being able to go back in and reset times for our temperatures. It would be a nice feature to be able to go back in and back log our HAACP cooking logs so we could track and entr at the end of our shifts

Easy and efficient
Saves time by keeping the records in one place.
Pros
The reminders are the best feature. They help to insure our products are the appropriate temperature to ensure safety.
Cons
The app logs you out fairly quickly. Our people use their mobile devices with the program and they have to log in each time with their user name and password. Having a remember me on this device option would solve this issue.
