SchoolCafé Frequently Asked Questions

With a new platform, naturally there may be many questions. Read through our FAQ to learn more about our game-changing software!

1. What type of school districts are the right fit for SchoolCafé?

SchoolCafé is being introduced to districts on a case-by-case basis depending on a district’s scope of operations and desired functionalities. SchoolCafé is currently suggested for smaller districts, or districts with less complex operations (for example, districts that do not require Central Warehouse or Central Kitchen) until we release additional functionalities into the solution. Request a custom demo to see if it’s the right fit for your school nutrition program.

2. What modules are available?

Available modules include Menu Planning, Inventory, Production, POS/Accountability, Eligibility, and Family Hub. The SchoolCafé platform is an all-in-one, fully integrated solution that allows all modules to communicate with each other, eliminating redundancy and improving accuracy. We have a long-term plan to continue to expand our modules and features. For example, adding Professional Standards and Financials to the SchoolCafé platform. Check out our Product Page to get more in-depth information about our offerings.

3. What does the migration, training, and implementation process look like?

SchoolCafé is equipped with built-in migration tools, ensuring a smooth process for all data to be transferred. For full details on each of these stages, please visit the Services webpage which covers training, implementation, and support.
