EGS CALCMENU Software Review



The food industry professionals understand that it is certainly imperative to use a software for food and recipe management with other information that goes along each item and ingredient. It would nearly impossible to accomplish without using software, though it may still seem as a challenge for some to deal with technical basics. In reality, most chefs would still rather enjoy cooking and preparation rather than organizing recipe collections with a software that confuses the technical with their cooking functionality and artistry.

Recipe software should therefore be easy and pleasant to use, eliminating the challenge of actually entering data and optimizing the information of the stored data. CALCMENU is a software that makes it very convenient with more features to offer: shopping lists, automated recipe calculation, exportation of recipes to an external web service, unit conversion, etc.

EGS has developed CALCMENU - a suite of Recipe and Back Office Management Solution for the foodservice professionals who need to control their food costs, keep track of their inventory levels and costs and at the same time, keep the standards and quality of their menus. To be able to achieve our goal of gaining and retaining valuable customers, we have created a survey on our customer satisfaction that can assist in decision making, developing strategies, identifying strengths and weaknesses to bring out the best of our products.
