General Features & Benefits

Carb Manager is a strong contender in the market because they offer some features that just aren’t available anywhere else. 

First of all, they have both free and paid plans available, so you can try out their service without having to worry about a commitment. They also have a database of foods that’s incredibly useful while following a keto diet in your day-to-day life. It contains information on the net carb counts, macros and micronutrients of over 1 million foods.

Customization

In terms of customization, Carb Manager keto diet plans work a little bit differently than the other services we’ve covered so far. Instead of having an intake quiz, Carb Manager has both free and premium plans available. This allows users to try out their services for free and decide what works best for them before committing to a paid plan. 

Even though their lack of intake quiz is a drawback, Carb Manager still offers a degree of customization through preference selection. They also have one of the world’s most comprehensive and accurate databases of foods and over 1000 exclusive low-carb recipes from their test kitchen.

Recipes

Carb Manager recipes are absolutely delicious and simple to prepare. They have an exclusive library of over 1000 low-carb recipes straight from their test kitchen. The good stuff doesn’t stop there, however. You can also access their library of over 10,000 user-submitted recipes and 350,000 web recipes.

Carb Manager also provides lots of additional information about their recipes such as calories, carb content, protein content, fiber content, fat content and more.

Ease of Use

Carb Manager meal plans are easy to follow and their recipes are simple and delicious. In that sense, the tool is relatively easy to use. However, their information and complementary resources could be better organized. It’s difficult to search through their website to find exactly what you’re looking for, and their app needs certain bug fixes. If their system was easier to use, they’d land higher on our list.

Complementary Resources

Carb Manager provides ample additional resources for their users. Of course, paid plan users have access to more complementary resources than free plan users, but both have access to a good variety. 

To name a few, there’s Carb Manager’s impressive database of foods, their wide variety of app integrations, their advanced tracking, reporting and analysis features, their database of articles and more.
