## Reviews

### "BUYER BEWARE" — 2.0/5

> **Susan** | *5 January 2016*
> 
> Do not buy this product. It's antiquated and crashes regularly. The company does not stand behind their product and will ask you to pay hundreds of dollars per hour for any type of customer support.

### "The data I get from CostGuard has been a real boon." — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *9 February 2016*
> 
> I've been using CostGuard for the last 9 years and each year it's gotten better. I use the automator to import my POS sales mix over night, and I use VendorTransport to import my order guides and invoices. It's a great tool to allow me to keep up with my usage and prices. But I really love the variance reports. I can get my chef and accountant together to look at the numbers. I am a real stickler for numbers\! I also can't stand it when my vendor sends me the inventory I order but in a different form. The substitutions function has been the best. I don't have to manually change my recipes, CostGuard does it for me. 
There is a learning curve, but I use a lot of software (reservations, POS etc) and everything has a learning curve. Their webinar training is great and has helped to get our new employees up and running quickly.

### "Huge time saver, cut food costs by 9%" — 5.0/5

> **Isaac** | *20 August 2015*
> 
> I was happy when I upgraded from my shoebox-full-of-paper system to Excel spreadsheets, but CostGuard helped us take our organizational system to the next level. To be honest, the initial setup takes some time so I was a little wary at first (that's the only reason it got 4 stars for ease of use), but the time savings make up for that within a few days. There are no more stupid arithmetic errors like there were in Excel, I get alerted about price changes without having to pull out old invoices, and the program helped me pinpoint waste. It's one of the only piece of restaurant software I've used that actually helps me spend more time in the kitchen and less in the office.
