Fourth (HotSchedules)
Fourth is a hospitality operations platform best known for HotSchedules workforce management, with an inventory and back-office suite (purchasing, recipe/menu engineering, production, food cost and the Adaco hotel inventory product). It is aimed at multi-unit restaurants and hotels that want labor and inventory in one ecosystem.
Our verdict
Broad, enterprise-grade suite that unifies inventory, purchasing, recipe/menu engineering and production with market-leading HotSchedules labor management and strong scale; pricing is fully custom and the most visible independent rating (Capterra 4.4 from 444+ reviews) is primarily for the workforce product rather than the inventory module, with some reviewers citing complexity, which limits the inventory-specific score.
