Easy to find the items needed > > **Cons**: Need to be able to email and easily add items that are not found. Can be a tad cumbersome > > Have used it for years and is a great tool. Customer service is good and helpful. Would like to see more features added. Has made my life easier even in the manufacturing world. ----- ### "Does exactly what it says and exactly what we need" — 4.0/5 > **Austin** | *23 August 2022* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This allows for tracking and labeling of all nutritional information. It stores and backs up all the nutritional data we need, creates ingredient labels that fit the ever changing legal requirements, and allows us to keep appropriate labeling for a large menu. > > **Cons**: The UI is a bit dated and a couple things are not a user friendly as they could be. Once you get past the learning curve, though, it works great. > > It has a bit of a learning curve, but it so much that I can't imagine operating without it. ----- ### "Using this program is a constant battle\!" — 2.0/5 > **Kate** | *19 July 2018* | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I started out loving this program. The ability to enter the exact ingredient you use and use one recipe as an ingredient in another is great. But, unfortunately, the honeymoon phase only lasted about a month because all the glitches, unexpected crashes, and limitations became glaringly obvious. > > **Cons**: At first it seems like this program has a ton of great features, but many of them don't actually work. The nutrition calculation for the most part is accurate, provided that the processing yield doesn't inexplicably change itself. I'd say the program crashes about 2-12 times a day depending on usage and how it's feeling. We've got about 700 recipes to keep track of and I think that's just too much for this program. The cost analysis also sounded great at the beginning, but can be inaccurate and attempting to use the overhead calculator crashes my system every time. There is a Yahoo group run by the developer that you can join which I think would be helpful for learning the basic functions of the program. Although they are quick to respond, it doesn't help with the big issues like the constant crashing and unexpected changes the recipes seem to make "themselves." Sounds great but still needs lots of work and development before I'd consider it a decent product. > > Forced me to learn coding so that I could build my own data management system. ----- ### "Good program for FDA nutritional label compliance" — 5.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *19 August 2022* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: This program has a learning curve, and quirks, but once you learn it (like all software) it's very easy to navigate and get what you need. > > **Cons**: The UX (interface) is very 1990s, and there are some simple things that are irritating. But this is the case in just about all software. > > I have used this program for many years, and rely on it extensively. Additionally, when I've needed support, it's been quick and effective. ----- ### "Why we stay" — 4.0/5 > **Lynn** | *19 August 2022* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's very straight forward to use and is very accurate. It has a great database and functionality. > > **Cons**: It's not very sexy in today's software world. I wish it had some of the functions I've seen in other similar software. > > We are reviewing the possibility of using nutraCoster to track many of the costs we have been using spreadsheets to capture ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/258518/nutracoster?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/258518/nutracoster) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
