Enquiries Management & Bookings Diary

A simple to use enquiry management system helps you to create and follow-up the sales leads from either existing customers or new customers. Setup automated reminders to chase the customers and turn the leads in to business. You can use our plugin to get enquiries directly from your website.

Bespoke Event Proposals

Send the stylish and informative event proposals to the customers with a single click of a button. Setup multiple templates based on the type of event and personalise with customer details & requirements.

Design to suit your branding.

Pricing Calculation Tools

CaterSOFT offers 5 varieties of automated quoting tools. Whether you quote your customer as a package, or price individually for each item - we got tools to help you. We have developed templates for packages, and separate tools for selecting Food Items, Drinks and Equipment Hire. Plus a separate tool for staffing provision.

Payment Schedule & Tracking

CaterSOFT has made the payment system very easy. You can ask for a one-off payment for the smaller events. Or take multiple deposits upfront and a final balance before the event. And it is completely flexible. You can ask for a percentage or fixed value.

And CaterSOFT will send you the reminders when the payments are due.

Built-in Invoicing

CaterSOFT allows you to raise an invoice and send it to your customer straight from the system. There are invoice templates available that you can personalise to suit your branding.

* Or you can use our automated invoicing system to schedule your daily or weekly invoicing. Scheduler will raise and email the invoices to your customers.

Event Sheet Printing

This is a neat little module that'll help you plan everything you need to run an event. CaterSOFT will automate an event plan that will tell you the schedule, guest seating, staff uniforms, seating, service equipment required and so on. So, no more scribblings, word documents and excel sheets – it'll all be there at the click of a button.

Tasks & Alerts

Create appointments such as customer meetings, venue visits, tasting sessions or even automate these regular tasks with the built-in Task Scheduler and receive the auto reminders.

Also you can create custom reminders for you and your staff.

Staff Scheduling

CaterSOFT helps you to strongly associate your fulltime and part-time staff to your business and utilise them in the best possible manner.

Create unlimited staff accounts for all your chefs, waiters and part-time staff. Find & allocate staff to events and automatically email or SMS their shift details.

Catersoft is Amazing! And Great Value for Money. We have worked with Catersoft for six years, the software has developed over time and many features have been Bespoke to us, Invoicing customers is fast and just a few clicks of a button- Great for managing multiple customer accounts. Setting up customers on the system is easy. The online customer Ordering Portal Saves loads of time and errors.

This software has helped our business save so much time to organise customer orders from initial order through to delivery and final invoicing. Catersoft team provide training and full ongoing support.

We would highly recommend this Software.

Our company was looking to upgrade its existing booking system with something that was more modern and met the needs of our business. We came across CaterSOFT and invited them for a demonstration. It soon became apparent that CaterSOFT was a perfect fit for our business and it was affordable too. CaterSOFT is completely customisable and works well for us.

Catersoft team is extremely approachable and responds well to our requests and has tailored the system to meet the needs of our business. Support was great during the planning and implementation phase and has carried out numerous training and support sessions with the team.

We have been working with CaterSOFT for five and half years and have not regretted it. The Event Co-ordinators who organise events find it easy to work with and the read-only access (no-charge) is a great facility for the chefs and front of house team who run the events.

I would not hesitate to recommend CaterSOFT and the service from team.

"As an owner of a hospitality company with multiple sites and event venues, having the ability to access all event orders at each venue on one platform has given us unprecedented ability to make decisions quickly and efficiently. The Catersoft cloud based program means our staff can get access anytime, anywhere and respond to our client needs. I thoroughly support and recommend Catersoft for your business"

Steven Holland

Director
Just Inspire Hospitality & Event Management

Selecting software for our business took months but when we found this option not only was it the most cost effective, we have found it to be the best having done many trials in the beginning before selecting Catersoft as our chosen provider.

I have worked with the team at Catersoft for over seven years and I manage all of my catering, venue’s (including room diaries) and external events business through it. I have total confidence in Catersoft and even on the odd occasion when there has been a small glitch the team at Catersoft have always been quick to rectify any problems.

I should mention that at times when my business model has changed, Bhanu has always had a system change up his sleeve ready to roll out that has made my life easier, having access to the team who are based in Birmingham has been a real bonus. They have even been out to my offices to see me at times which is unusual for this type of software service in my experience.

So to be clear we take online enquiries through our website that fall straight into our Catersoft back office and manage the sales pipeline through this system, then each event that we build is fully costed from Menu’s, Staffing, Drinks & Venue Hire giving us a full P&L for every job before we quote the Client, the automatic CRM style emails that we have set up also save many man hours of repetitive jobs for my whole team.

We can look at our sakes forecasts by month, year or by when the sales were made and by who.

If you are thinking of using a system to manage your catering, venue or events business I am doing this right now and am delighted to be able to write this testimonial for a business that helps me every day to deliver great service to my clients and keep my team organised.

Thank you so much to the Catersoft Team…..

This is just a quick note to thank you for putting together such a fantastic booking system for us. Taking bookings and putting together schedules has never been easier. All our staff have complimented the system and are more than impressed with the way they can view bookings with ease.

Paul and I now have more time to concentrate on sales, safe in the knowledge that all bookings / client details are on a system which keeps things organised, and offers reports whenever needed.

We are particularly happy with the diary. Now, when the weekend approaches, we can view all our bookings at the click of a switch. Thanks again for all your hard work! You really have made business run a lot more smoothly. It's hard to imagine how we coped without catersoft.

Paul & I would both be pleased to recommend you to other catering companies.

"Superb software for events!"
I came across Catersoft after a long search over many months for the perfect piece of software that would fit my niece hospitality business. My experience with other software before I found Catersoft wasn't great, I found that other software was over complicated, very expensive, difficult to set up. Then I found Catersoft, this piece of software is literally amazing, the set up was very straightforward, it is reasonably priced, and is packed full of features.

Pros: Catersoft is the ideal software solution for my busy events business. I love how easy it is to set up and use, the features are plentiful and brilliant, and the simple monthly subscription price is affordable. 5 stars!!

Cons: There are no negatives about this software.
