Running a small pizzeria exploring inventory software for expansion. R365’s steep fees raise concerns. Seeking cost-effective, QuickBooks-compatible alternatives for COGS, usage, labor, forecasting, and theft prevention.
I have experimented with various QuickBooks-compatible inventory systems as my business grew. I found that transitioning away from expensive solutions like R365 can be challenging but rewarding. A system that accurately tracks COGS, labor, and usage while offering flexible forecasting is crucial. In my experience, investing time upfront to tailor the software to specific business needs can drastically improve inventory accuracy and mitigate theft. It is important to evaluate the total cost of ownership including device integration, training, and potential growing pains as you scale your operations.
