Implementing an effective food safety management system can be challenging but rewarding. It requires hard work, a dedicated team, and support from top management. This
Good day Entecom team, I wanted to pop a quick message to you and your software development team to just compliment you on your EO software FSMS system. I recently audited a site that is a client of yours and makes use of the EO system and I was super impressed. I have encountered various document management software tools used by food facilities over the past 11 years, but yours is really the first one that makes a lot of sense! The navigation of the documents was so easy, the site representative and staff were all relaxed and could easily find all the checklists requested and their document control was well organized. Although content control obviously is a thing the clients have to control, the templates and design of the system is clean, neat, logical and even their plant workers were comfortable working on the system. Just wanted to say well done! I am definitely going to tell my clients in the industry about your software, I think it has huge potential for a couple of large organizations. Thanks for all you do and keep up the good work!
“The team is new and therefore it was a new learning curve and enforced a new food safety culture. Communication is definitely made easier. EO makes it all very easy to implement. The fact that the system prompts you (on a daily basis) and makes it easy to know what tasks are due. This prevents us from getting caught up in the daily operations and forgetting the recording side of things, helping me to focus on the Managment of the system.”
“EO has met our expectations and it has been a pleasure working with you and in the future. The reporting and escalation of non-conformances is easier with EO. The users like myself have no problem completing the paperwork checks in EO. EO has definitely improved, sharpened and broadened our food safety culture and communication, making our facility a cleaner and safer area to work in.”
“The system far exceeded our expectations, in that it not only provides us with the platform to complete the requirements as per our Food Safety System, but also to customize forms according to our specifications. The functionality for reporting of non-conformances is simple. Users are ahead of schedule in completing their required checklists and no longer complain about the paperwork. What excites us the most is the ability to create checklists specific to our needs.”
Regarding Entecom Online, the Food Safety Software Solution “We started using the programme on the farms as well as one of the packhouses to try and simplify the flow of information and to test out the functionality. We are impressed. The programme works really well, for managers and general workers alike.
The flow information and ease of use makes this an extraordinary tool to use. The service is excellent, we receive prompt assistance when changing documents or adding to the programme.”
On behalf of Nando’s Feitoria, we would like to say thank you for always being there for our assistance. We appreciate your guidance and knowledge you always give.
Thank you and Regards

“I would just like to thank you for the great and easy training that you guys provide. You are always on the ball and emails don’t go a day unanswered. The training you provide is easy to follow and very informative. You guys have managed to make learning fun again for the older generation that has been out of the learning circle for a while. Anyone wishing to further their education can not go wrong with ENTECOM.
Thank you for all the help and assistance and always being friendly when I have queries (no matter how small of insignificant).
May your business continue to bloom and thrive!”
“Thank you very much for all the assistance and for facilitating the assessment.
As discussed, I am definitely interested in attaining the handbook…
Would also like to mention, that the course has been a tremendously beneficial in all aspects of food safety realisation and risk mitigation, and the systems required to make it sustainable and achievable. We are currently setting up a new commercial kitchen and are in the process of having the Health Inspector visit us for approval.
What was learnt during the course has greatly assisted in the imperative design of processes and layout of the facility.
The ease of access to complete the course through the online portal only added value to the already great content! Thank you.
“I will say I have been most impressed with your online R638 course for person in charge, that I would recommend online training to those who prefer to work this way. 4 days away is a long time where we don’t carry extra staff.”
Good Morning Janice and Entecom Team,
