MaxiManage combines HR management, workforce scheduling, attendance, sales tools, and real-time business reporting in a cloud-based platform. It is aimed at restaurants, cafés, salons, retail, and hospitality businesses in Ireland and the UK, and runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Employee Management is free forever, while businesses can add separate modules. The attendance app records clock-ins and clock-outs offline, then syncs them when connectivity returns. Smart Roster builds department schedules, notifies employees, and supports changes from anywhere. HR tools store employee records, contracts, documents, and performance reviews, and support document e-signatures. Businesses can manage locations separately, with distinct staff, rosters, and reporting.

Gift Vouchers tracks balances, redemptions, and activity, including partial redemption. Listed annual module prices are €220 a year for KDS & Kitchen Operations, €307.50 a year for Gift Vouchers, and €615 a year for MaxiManage POS. Gift Vouchers and POS prices include 23% VAT.
