growyze vs Millum Procurement

Growyze is an app for managing hospitality back-of-house work, from stock and purchasing to invoices, waste and recipes. Barcode scanning and digital stocksheets support stock counts; the product says this can reduce stocktake time by 60%. Automated checks compare orders, deliveries and invoices to flag discrepancies. Dashboards cover expected versus actual COGS, gross profit and item price changes. Recipe tools include costing, margin calculations and allergen details. Growyze runs on iOS, Android and desktop browsers. Its product page displays integrations for Square, Clover, Go-EPOS, Newbridge, Xero and Sage. A free plan is available, with limits on stocktakes, orders, suppliers, delivery notes, invoice validations, recipes, dishes, waste records and reports. Pro costs $79 a month and includes 25 automated invoice validations, then £0.50 per invoice. The maker also advertises a 30-day trial without requiring a card, with setup available on or off site upon request.

Millum Procurement is a purchasing system for hotels, restaurants and canteens, covering work from ordering through invoicing. It runs on Android, iOS and the web, and is designed for small and large businesses joining individually or through a purchasing organization. Users can search products, browse supplier catalogs, build shopping lists and set recurring orders. Order handling includes archives, confirmations, packing slips, goods receipt and discrepancy reporting. The Menu Bank supports recipes, costing, labeling and sharing, and can retrieve nutrition and allergen details from Matinfo. Inventory counts can be shared and completed online or offline on a mobile device or tablet; prices can be updated from supplier catalogs. Optional modules include menu planning, a CO2 calculator, food-waste tracking, free-text ordering, invoice services and Millum Insight. Integrations include Microsoft Dynamics 365, SAP, Xledger, Basware, Mashie, Izy, Matinfo and Validoo. Millum says these are tailored to customer systems, and some integration projects require customer or third-party adaptations. Pricing is on request; a trial of the purchasing module may be arranged for a few users and selected suppliers.
