Looking for a Foodics alternative for your restaurant or café? Snad is a complete alternative built for the Saudi market
Foodics is a specialized restaurant management system well known in Saudi Arabia; general accounting in it is usually handled through integrations with accounting systems, and its published plans start at about SAR 423 per month for the quick-service tier (392 with annual billing) per its official pricing page (July 2026). For small and mid-sized restaurants and cafés, Snad offers a single integrated platform: cashier POS + full accounting + inventory + HR + ZATCA compliance, starting at SAR 149 per month with no restrictive contracts. Competitor information last verified: July 2026.
Why move from Foodics to Snad?
Foodics is a good product; Snad offers deeper integration with the Saudi market.
Accounting built into the cashier
Every sale at the cashier is posted automatically to the books and updates inventory immediately. You do not need separate accounting software or manual links between systems.
HR and payroll for the restaurant in the same system
Manage staff salaries, attendance and leave in line with the Saudi Labor Law — all integrated with accounting, with no separate HR subscription.
Inventory and raw material management
Track raw material consumption automatically with every order, get reorder alerts when stock runs low, and see dish cost reports.
One subscription instead of several
Instead of combining a cashier system, a separate accounting subscription and a separate payroll system, Snad brings them all together from SAR 149 per month, with a 30-day free trial and no credit card.
