Caterer Manager vs Pxier: two Québec-made catering software, which one?
Pxier is a Montréal hospitality management platform (caterers, banquet halls, spas, salons, restaurants) available in four languages. Caterer Manager has been built in Québec City since 2011 for caterers only. Both are from Québec and bilingual; they do not approach the trade the same way.
Updated October 4, 2026In short
- CM: caterers only, nine modules from the web to the kitchen, CRM included from Professionnel, MEV-WEB through Colossale POS, from CAD $199 per month.
- Pxier: catering plan at $65 per month for the first user and $29 per additional user, 30-day trial, booking, point-of-sale and e-signature modules (Pxier eSign), integrated payment terminals.
