"Good insight, nice reporting tool and structured, has got qiet some day to day maintanance needed"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

How user-friendly the program is.

I like the insights and analytical side of the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

A lot of day-to-day maintenance is to be done especially when suppliers are unstable like we are now.

DUe to how we set up brkf, I cant trust the theoretical COGS making it not accurate or relevant for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User friendly"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

- user-friendliness: usage and design of the screens

- self-manageable: can create and configure everything myself

- scalability: easy to copy/create data for new outlets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

Reporting: reporting is available but not always in the best way for a restaurant manager to use. He does not easily find data that is for him of the highest importance (ex: COGS, losses, stock variances) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ApicBase saves us many hours every month and takes all of our planning & production headaches away! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system is fairly new to market and whilst there's lots of features planned for future, we wish these would come quicker! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It is a full program with lots of opportunities."
What do you like best about Apicbase?

Possibilities within the system. So it is not only a menu engineering tool, but you can combine a variety of applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

Price for what we use. Our restaurant is very small and a start-up. We only look at the recipe and nothing further. So it is to cost expensive for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive & Extensive F&B Management Tool"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

Apicbase is a complex tool built for multi-outlet "restaurants." It is clear how thought through the tool is. I particularly like the packages & pricing feature, the price calculations, and the ability to generate nutrition labels for dishes. Ordering, stock, and waste management and the option of syncing it with a POS is very valuable for order processes. With the use of custom fields, it is very easy to tailor Apicbase to one's individual needs. The insights, dashboards, and analyses are absolutely essential when optimizing profit margins, understanding revenue, and scaling concepts. And Apicbase offers great and speedy customer service! We are very happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

The more we use the tool, the longer our wishlist of features grows. There is nothing we dislike, just a few features we wish the tool would add :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I think apic is what every chef needs!"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

It is most helpful as all my recipes are in one place, they all have appropriate allergens and ingredients assigned, and it makes it really quick to check menu costings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

That it is not integrated to a spreadsheet, so you cant just bulk upload cost prices and ingredients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very promising platform for F&B management (and more)"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

Apicbase provided us with a modular platform to manage many of our backoffice challenges when it comes to F&B management: we used Restaurant Management, Inventory, Procurement and BI but also were looking at HACCP & Tasks as well as Menu planning. For companies which have a high level of automatization as well as their suppliers, the program offers huge potential in saving on costs and time by gaining much more insight. The team from Apicbase is very driven to get the best out of the system for their clients and are constantly looking for improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

We work with local suppliers which aren't always able (or willing) to connect to the Apicbase platform. Connecting them to the platform is fundamental to the success for a small but rapidly scaling operation like ours or else it will require to much patching and workarounds to have this resolved. So both on the suppliers end as well as with Apicbase being able to connect suppliers to the platform more easy is crucial for the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Apicbase review"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

Apicbase are true professionals holding an advanced piece of software. It enables us to track the flow of our goods all the way from procurement to sale. Besides keeping complete track of our inventory, Apicbase provides us with great insights into how our cost of goods sold develops. As the inflationary environment forces us to be very keen on the cost of our goods versus our pricing point, Apicbase provides all the features to maintain a profitable business. Besides having the software solution to manage your inventory, Apicbase are experts in handling their customers and always seek to return your inquiries with a solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

The only thing we have been missing is a bit more flexible integration setup with our POS provider. The issue can't solely be attributed to Apicbase though, as it was mainly set up by our POS provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Anke Artois of Apicbase

We always take feedback into consideration, so many thanks for your review!

"Amazing team and Cutting Edge Product"
What do you like best about Apicbase?

Apicbase has an amazing partnerships & customer support team, and our mutual customers speak very highly of the tool and how it's helped them reduce food waste and be more efficient with their inventory management.

Communicating with them on deals that need support or coordinating marketing & Business development initiatives is seamless and effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apicbase?

Apicbase is a growing company like ours and I only wish they had more on the ground global teams to support local customers in each region. I believe this will happen in time and we face similar challenges but we hope to see them continue growing their global footprint in the near future! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great way to organise stock and track recipies.

Clear system - easy to use - layout is simple. Tess is super helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes we find a slow response on chat. No cancel button on orders available - makes the process longer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
