Optimum Control
Optimum Control (by TracRite Software) is a desktop and mobile restaurant inventory and food-cost management system covering inventory counts, recipe costing, purchasing and 70+ reports. It is aimed at independent restaurants, bars and small multi-unit operators that want detailed ideal-vs-actual cost control. TracRite was acquired by Buyers Edge Platform in 2021.
Our verdict
Mature, detail-rich inventory and food-cost tool with very broad POS, accounting and distributor integrations, published per-plan pricing and a strong ideal-vs-actual reporting suite; its Capterra rating is high (4.8) but on a very small review count, and the desktop-rooted architecture feels less modern than cloud-native rivals, which tempers the score.
