MEEZ for culinary classroom
Comments: MEEZ has brought structure and organization to what was formerly just a bunch of files in my Google Drive. It has brought transparency, organization and easier collaboration.
Pros:
I have been very pleased with our integration of MEEZ into our workflow. Our class is built entirely around a model of entreprenuership and having software like MEEZ has facilitated collaboration and dish development. Also having nutrition built in made our NASA HUNCH menu development much easier. I hope to fully build out our food costing database to make that as easy as it should have been all along.
Cons:
There has been some confusion around sharing recipes and how to post them to specific concepts

A must for recipe and menu management
Comments: We were trying to get our COGS under control the most challenging part was quickly figuring out the cost of a recipe. Meez is awesome because you add the price of an ingredient and then that price is added to any recipe. If I need to make an adjustment to a recipe, it automatically adjusts the cost. I also like that I can easily toggle the price to see what the COGS would be. Lastly, we use Meez while cooking in the kitchen to easily scale recipes without any math. That’s a real lifesaver. Overall it’s made my recipe management and costing so much easier and for an affordable price.
Pros:
It’s easy to upload recipes into the software and easy to make adjustments.
Cons:
It’s sometimes buggy but it’s nothing major.

Good Organizational Tool
Comments: It does the job for a low cost.
Pros:
This product allows me to organize my recipes and record necessary prep steps in an easy-to-read format. Scaling recipes is made easy with their format.
Cons:
There are still a lot of limitations to how you add and convert ingredients. I don't find their conversion and yield modifiers intuitive and they lack the educational resources on their site to learn.

Great product, should only get better!
Comments: I love it. It’s the assistant I’ve never had and never could afford.
Pros:
It’s ease of use and the software’s cognitive ability to fill in information for you as it learns.
Cons:
There is no app for easier access to all of my cooks.

A chef’s dream
Comments: From the intro calls/demos to the current level of service in receiving, top notch!
Pros:
The ease of creating recipes and using the Meez database and conversion tools. Additionally, the UI is clean and easy to navigate, not too busy.
Cons:
I am hoping that the invoice scanning tool can be further enhanced, allowing me to drop XtraChef and use Meez exclusively.
