No incentive was offered I own accounting service that had sworn off doing restaurant work because of the vast amount of paper involved. Most of my time was being spent tracking down Sales and COGS info and could never do any real analysis. A couple years ago I discovered Orderly and used that service for a year or so until they eliminated the integration with QuickBooks Online. I went searching and found MarginEdge. It. Changed. Everything. I couldn't be more pleased. Not only does it help me take care of the avalanche of paper I used to have to deal with on a daily basis, but now we can get real Food cost, ingredient pricing alerts, etc. And I can deliver financials fast!

Replied April 2023 --- ### Margin Edge gave me hours back in my week - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Angie B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospitality - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. Margin Edge has been great to work with. It does take several months to really get the data in and a while to work out the kinks on our side. They have been right there to help us along the way as we were ready to take on more of the product. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The A/P component in and of itself paid for the product in reduced time spent inputting invoices/receipts. The inventory side, while there is a learning curve, has been great now that we are setup. We fully use the recipes, menu engineering and theoretical usage reports.It is part of my start to every day.Like the Budget summary. The combination of Budget and the P&L allow me to customize what I want my team to view and helps us track to metrics. #### Cons There are some things we would very much like 1) Waste Log. All the information is in ME to integrate a wastelog and it would be great to add to the variance report. 2) Menu Analysis using gross sales rather than net. We integrate with Toast and it may be a function of what Toast makes available. We LOVE the menu analysis but based upon our discounting program - it skews our view and requires us to focus more on the theoretical usage report and Menu items rather than the menu analyses. 3) Forecasting. Would be very nice to have an annual and monthly forecast integrated into the system. #### Reasons for switching to MarginEdge We were looking for an inventory solution that was easy to use and we could trust. We also had a lot of time we were spending on payables. This was an easy all in one solution for these two items that immediately gave us time back in our week and gave us a good framework for taking our menu engineering and food cost management to the next level by making it very accessible to our leadership and updating in a timely manner. Not need to wait until our books close each month. #### Vendor response Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us, Angie! We're thrilled to hear what an unlock MarginEdge has had on your business. It sounds like you are a true [me] star (no menu pun intended). We look forward to continually meeting your needs with future product feature releases and updates. We're always working on moving onward and upwards - so, keep the feedback coming.
