"The last SaaS you will ever need - MarketMan does it all!"
What do you like most about MarketMan?
The dashboard really lays out all the financial details of your business nicely. Being in control, you'll get up-to-the-minute info to help you make smart money decisions. I like how quick and simple it is to go between different sections, and it's cool that it always asks you to save your work before you leave a section. Plus, when you're entering invoices manually, it's super straightforward to check out inventory, tweak prices, give out credits, and upload scanned invoices.
What do you dislike about MarketMan?
I feel like the only thing Market Man is missing is a way to make payments directly through it. It would be perfect for users if Market Man could include ACH or other payment options right in its software.
Would you purchase this software again?
Yes.

"Awesome for procurement, but not the best for recipe management. Support is hit or miss."
What do you like most about MarketMan?
Marketman is a strong tool for managing procurement. Setting it up takes quite a bit of effort, which you'd expect with anything sophisticated. I'm not entirely convinced that all this work pays off for kitchens and chefs. After putting in a lot of effort to get everything set up, you might hit an issue with the final steps not working as they should. This can actually make things more challenging for chefs, especially with the bugs and limited support.
What do you dislike about MarketMan?
For any kitchen, restaurant, or commercial setup, the end goal of managing procurement is to prepare dishes for customers, making recipes the main thing of why you'd use such a system. While Marketman is amazing in procurement, its recipe management, printing and all the bugs, fall short of what I would need and expect. The support team also seems to struggle, often are unhelpful. Picture investing hundreds to thousands of hours, only to have your recipe printouts become a mess. Missing components, lacking details, plagued with printing issues, and bugs. The system's recipe management and printing need serious improvement. Issues like buggy recipe sets, problematic production events, and flawed PDF printing make retrieving a simple recipe far too complicated.
Would you purchase this software again?
Not sure.
