59 Crunchtime Testimonials

“Someone who has never written an order can go into CrunchTime and order products for the week. Since our business relies primarily on fresh products, it is essential to our success that we have an accurate and efficient ordering system.”

“We were in a very reactionary mode, and needed a system to assist operators with holding their teams accountable, and that was a driving force toward Zenput. With Zenput, we went from reactionary to proactive.”

"It was important for us to find a company that had the skill set where we could implement on time and they had a lot of people who had experience in restaurants as well as in technology to make that happen."

“And that changed a little bit and it forced us to take a look at the systems and training we have in place versus just institutional knowledge. We were able to use Zenput to help us bring management employees on a little bit quicker–get them focused back on those operational excellence points, but blend training and modeling together.”

“I believe right now in the technology world in restaurants, we're kind of in the dot-com era of the late 90s where everybody has a shiny ball. You have to be really careful with what you're doing with that shiny ball.”

“By leveraging Crunchtime’s advanced labor and scheduling tools, our managers have reduced the average time spent writing schedules by almost 50%.”

“Zenput has been so well received that other divisions within Alshaya Group have started expressing interest in implementing the tool and undergoing pilots.”

“We’d spend hours and hours sifting through the paper. And then you would realize that there’s incomplete information, and have to go back to find that information. Now, it’s almost instant—I just sit in front of my laptop. I have all the information I need to track the work at the stores, and I know that the store and area managers are aware of all the important issues."

“The head office is aware of all the tasks that are happening at the restaurant. And we are able to assist the restaurant where they need assistance before issues become larger issues that affect our customers.”

“Because the cooks take photos of their finished product, they want to show off their work. This, along with regular feedback from the audits, improved each cook’s process, resulting in a drastic improvement in both product quality and taste of the chicken."

"For our financial team and our CFO, for example, they were really impressed with the amount of consolidation [of platforms] we were able to do."
