What we could not confirm

FoodDocs

  • Contract minimum term and cancellation notice
  • Countries where it is sold beyond the UK and North America
  • Interface languages
  • Security certifications (none stated besides a GDPR compliance statement)
  • Customer count: the homepage says 1,200+ food safety leaders while another page says more than 30,000 customers
  • Funding, employee count and founder names
  • POS, accounting and payroll integrations (none named)

SmartFoodSafe

  • Any price or plan detail (modular, quote via demo)
  • Contract term and free trial
  • Security certifications: the homepage has a Security Certifications heading but names none in its text
  • Which 12 countries it serves
  • Interface languages (the website offers English, French, Spanish and Portuguese, but that may not apply to the product)
  • Legal entity name and number of employees
  • Named POS, accounting or other integrations
  • Founder names (the About page lists a CEO, Prasant Prusty, but does not call him a founder)
  • Whether it monitors equipment or temperatures itself: it lists no sensor hardware, so the given category Equipment Monitoring & Maintenance appears wrong
