Rated5 and Get Lemon both handle fridge and freezer temperatures, cooking logs, deliveries and daily checklists — that part is table stakes. Where Rated5 pulls ahead is everything built specifically on the FSA’s Safer Food Better Business structure around those daily checks: guided corrective actions that walk your team through exactly what to do when a reading goes wrong, versioned safe-methods sign-off that re-prompts staff automatically when anything changes, training records tracked to expiry, and a proper document filing cabinet for certificates and servicing records.
Get Lemon’s own published feature list doesn’t cover corrective-action workflows beyond basic issue flagging, safe methods, tamper-evident record-keeping, or team roles — areas where Rated5 has dedicated, structured functionality built in from day one.
On price, Rated5 is £14.99/month (or £144/year, working out at £12/month) per premises — lower than Get Lemon’s £19/location/month flat rate — while covering considerably more ground.
