StockTake Online report card
Weak · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 12, 2026
Best for restaurants that count stock and track food cost
StockTake Online does stock counts, ordering, recipes and gross profit reports for restaurants, with POS and accounting links and iOS and Android apps. No prices are published, and it is no use for retail or warehouse stock.
Who StockTake Online is for
- Fits if you run a restaurant or bar and want counts tied to recipes
- Works for groups that move stock between several sites
Who StockTake Online is not for
- Skip it if you sell retail goods or run a warehouse, as it is built for hospitality
- Not for you if you need a price to plan with, because none is published
- Skip it if you want a self-serve trial, since only a demo is offered
- Watch out: the quote depends on locations, operation type and features
Why StockTake Online gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo price is published; the vendor quotes by locations, operation type and features, which puts it in the middle.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan and no self-serve trial; the vendor offers a personalised demo.
- CFeaturesCounts, goods receiving, recipes, gross profit, transfers and POS links do the hospitality job, but it is a narrow job and a poor fit for retail.
- CEase of useNo store rating is on record, and you set up recipes and connect a POS before the numbers mean anything.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb plus iOS and Android apps, with Toast, Lightspeed, Aloha and Xero links. No computer app is on record.

Keep StockTake Online, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of StockTake Online you could make: inventory and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 45 of the 72 other inventory management tools grade higher.
What you could make
- Inventory and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, Toast, Lightspeed and Aloha EPOS among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. StockTake Online’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

Worth knowing
