MarginEdge is built around back-office accounting workflows—invoice processing, bill pay and accounting sync. 86’d focuses on running the shift: manager log and handoff, tasks and checklists, nightly close and tip-out statements, BEOs, employee report cards and an employee app, with invoice capture and recipe costing in Operations Pro. 86’d does not pay bills or sync to accounting. 86’d doesn’t pay bills or sync to accounting; those stay in an accounting/AP system.
Compare your monthly cost

Blank or negative amounts count as $0. Enter what you actually pay; published vendor prices are listed below for reference only.
Hypothetical. Excludes taxes, setup, training and payment-processing fees. It is not a promise of savings.
