Which Brewery Software Offering is Right for You?
There is a common misconception that OrchestratedBEER is either too small for large regional breweries over 100,000 bbls/year or too big for startups and "nano breweries". Some may often be under the impression that OrchestratedBEER is not scalable or robust enough for even the largest breweries. Let's set the record straight for those who may be doubting whether or not this software can meet your needs. Our solution is catered to meet the needs of any craft brewery, big or small, with the ability to scale up to 1,000 users.
If you wanted to make the case that OrchestratedBEER wasn't scalable based strictly on the fact that it is limited to 1,000 users then you may have a good point there. However, how many "craft" breweries do you know of that have more than 1,000 users?
OrchestratedBEER has 3 different solutions to accomodate any brewery whether you have multiple locations with multi-entities, multi-state distribution, barcoding, or just a small nano brewery producing less than 800 bbls/year. In fact, we have startup breweries that have implemented our software before they even started brewing because they saw the value of using brewery software and the way it can help them streamline processes. Here's a breakdown of what we have to offer starting with the entry-level package:
