Accubar

“I’m able to uncover plenty of problems when using Profit Watch, While we have very high volume bars with cases of product consistently moving in and out, we can quickly check each location and match up what we are missing. From there we can figure out which camera to review when going back to check on bartenders if they’re over-pouring or theft.”

“I felt compelled to write you and thank you for getting us AccuBar. I know that we’ve only had it for a couple of months, but I have to tell you we love it already! We had been working with “The Beast” for almost a year and it was awful. The website and the handheld unit took forever to load, adding barcode-less products was a 4-step process, and many of our high end scotches, cognacs and wines were not recognized by their system as well as being in the wrong categories. I could not even correct any of this myself. I had to attempt to get in touch with a real person in California because even my local sales rep could not help me with those changes. Even if I got in touch with somebody to make changes no one could change the reports. They were static. So even if I changed my inventory numbers (which was a time consuming chore) the reports didn’t change. Inventory always took us between 7 and 9 hours to do, and we always had to have barcodes printed for the barcode-less items and either post them or carry them around with us. Now with AccuBar I can change anything I want to; categories of items, inventory points and even the names of my items. Barcode-less items I can just type in on the website once and we don’t have to carry around barcode sheets anymore, we can just look up our items on the handheld unit. It is so much easier it’s almost silly (but much safer since some of our products are on high shelves). Inventory now takes us about half the time it used to. The feature that I particularly love is being able to link items on the website. So now it does not matter if one manager calls an item “Cintron” and another calls it “Absolut Cintron.” Our website considers it the same item so our inventory numbers are more accurate because we do not have duplicate items. Again, I know we have only had your product for a couple of months, but the ease and simplicity of it is amazing. I’m so annoyed that we wasted over 100 hours of our time trying to make “The Beast” work for us when AccuBar was available.”

“I’ve been a fan of AccuBar for years, and I love what it does for Margaritaville. For our restaurants, the advantage of having a product like AccuBar is that it truly takes the guesswork out of our inventory process. If we have a bar manager take inventory one week and an AGM the next week, we get the same results. Another thing I like about AccuBar is that every one of our restaurants uses it in a different fashion. Some use the full system, others just take beverage inventory, and one restaurants counts every single inventory item with AccuBar, including food and other items. As for the time we’ve saved on taking inventory, if it’s not cut in half, it’s more than half. One location shaves six hours off of inventory every week. Now that AccuBar interfaces with our back-of-house systems, it takes two minutes to input and get a nice clean report. The interface team was excellent and really enabled us to hit our goals. The handheld is incredibly easy to use, and updates are always available and easy to install. We’ve had one handheld running consistently since we bought it almost a year ago and it has held up great under heavy use. Your support team has been incredible. They have been able to quickly answer any question or concern that we might have. Overall, I’m very impressed with how your company has been able to offer such a solid combination of functionality, ease of use and support.”
