How did you write these comparisons?

Against public product pages and FSA SFBB guidance (GOV.UK, 5 June 2025). We name competitor strengths. Prices that are not on a public list are marked quote-led. We do not invent switcher quotes or hours saved.

Is System Hub EHO approved?

No. No software is. Inspectors need records that are complete, dated, and accessible. FSA lists an electronic diary as an option in England and Wales. See will an EHO accept digital food safety records.

Can I keep ResDiary and use System Hub for SFBB?

Yes. That is the usual path if yield management already works. System Hub is for the records that still live on paper. Read System Hub vs ResDiary.

How much is System Hub Food Safety?

14-day trial, no card. Then £5/week per location via Stripe. Cancel anytime. Booking is £10/week if you add it.

Pick the comparison that matches the job

Paper SFBB, Checkit, Food Alert, and ResDiary are not the same category. One is the official pack. One watches fridges with sensors. One writes HACCP with consultants. One runs the floor plan. System Hub is timestamped SFBB checks, optional fire logs, and a simpler booking diary — from £5/week, in the browser.

vs paper SFBB

The official pack is legal. It fails when it is filled in at 11pm. Same checks, on a phone during the shift.

Best if gaps start at close

vs Checkit

Checkit automates temps with wireless sensors. System Hub will not watch a fridge at 3am. Different jobs.

Best if you are choosing sensors vs a diary

vs Food Alert

Alert65 is consultant-built HACCP and a 24/7 advice line. System Hub is the diary your team fills.

Best if you need an author, not only a login

vs ResDiary

ResDiary is yield, widgets, and EPOS. Keep it if that is the job. Add Food Safety for the pack that is still paper.

Best if you already have a booking system
