What Is the Cheapest HACCP Software in the UK?
Published prices for UK HACCP software from £9.99 to £69 a month and what each band includes, so you can pick the cheapest that actually covers your kitchen.
The cheapest HACCP software in the UK is HACCP App at £9.99 a month; SFBB Pro (£24.95) and Blueroll (£24.99) are the next band. Paddl is not the cheapest at £69 per location per month, but that price includes the HACCP plan written for you, SFBB, allergens, training, COSHH, licences and the EHO audit pack, with a 30-day free trial.
Key Facts
In Detail
There are three price bands. Under £10 a month buys a HACCP checklist or an SFBB diary on a phone: HACCP App at £9.99 and SFBB+ at £4.99. Around £25 a month buys records plus some allergen and reporting features: SFBB Pro at £24.95 and Blueroll at £24.99 per site. From £38 upwards you are buying a platform: Trail from about £38 per site on a 12-month term, Paddl at £69 per location month to month, FoodDocs from $99 per site. Paddl is in the top band and is honest about it. What the extra buys is the work, not just the record: the HACCP plan and SFBB pack are drafted from your menu, the allergen matrix is built from your recipes, licences and insurance are tracked from the PDFs, staff training is recorded, and the whole lot exports as one audit pack when the EHO arrives. If all you need is somewhere to tick the fridge check, the £9.99 app is the right answer and we would say so. Watch the hidden costs at every band: onboarding fees, per-user charges, a cheaper annual price that quietly becomes a contract, and sensor hardware sold alongside the software.
What HACCP software has to do at any price
Hold the plan (hazards, critical control points, critical limits, monitoring, corrective actions, verification, records), let staff record the monitoring on a phone, flag a reading outside the limit, record what was done about it, and print or export the lot for an inspector. HACCP App does that for £9.99. What it does not do is write the plan, and that is where most small businesses actually get stuck.
Hidden costs at each band
Setup fees of £200 to £500 are common on platforms that sell by quote. Per-user pricing turns a £25 app into £100 once the kitchen team is on it. Annual billing at a discount is a 12-month commitment in disguise. Sensor bundles add £100 to £300 per fridge. Paddl charges £69 per location with 5 users included, extra users at £2.99, no setup fee and no hardware; annual billing is optional at 15% off.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I create a HACCP plan without software?
Yes. The FSA publishes guidance and small caterers can use SFBB instead, which is a HACCP-based system written for them. Software earns its keep when the plan has to be updated, monitored daily by several people and shown to an inspector on demand.
Is free HACCP software any good?
Free tools are usually templates with no monitoring, no corrective-action record and no export. Fine for drafting, not for running a kitchen. The £9.99 tier is the realistic floor for something you can show an EHO.
