How is Enobase different from catering software (Sextan, Catermonkey, FastEvent…)?

They cover the work, but inside their own boxes: their documents, their markups, their model. When your way of working doesn't fit, you're the one who bends. With Enobase, the data model is yours, and AI is native, not a plugin.

Can I sign up and try it on my own?

Enobase is configured around your business during onboarding, and that is what makes it powerful. The demo is where you see the system running on your real cases; the trial happens in your own configured workspace.

What types of caterers benefit most?

Event caterers, from solo traiteurs to multi-site brigades: the moment you're juggling quotes, production, teams, and invoicing across several events at once.

Quotes from an email, technical sheets, insights on your numbers, orders in natural language. Always on your data, always with your approval.

Can I integrate my existing tools?

Accounting, calendars, web forms: Enobase connects to the tools you already use. We go through your integrations during onboarding.

How long until I'm up and running?

1–2 weeks for the first module, migration included. Never in peak season.

Hosted in Europe, backed up daily, role-based access. Your data stays yours.

Every event, flawlessly run

From the first client brief to the final invoice

Trusted by catering professionals

From boutique caterers to multi-site operators

Right now, your business runs on 6 tools that don't talk to each other.

Excel for the quotes, Word for the recipe sheets, WhatsApp for the schedule, the inbox for everything else. Each one works. Together, they make you retype the same event three or four times.

A week of work lost to one formula
Quotes lost in inboxes
Licenses for tools nobody uses
The real order buried in a thread

Four versions of one spreadsheet
Manual invoices
Notes cut off from accounting
Sales and logistics out of sync

Paper orders entered twice
Plans that never match reality
One broken integration stops everything
Six months of history gone

Same week. Same team. A different set of problems.

Drag across the week. Every notification stays where it is: only what it says about your operation changes.

Running a catering business stops meaning juggling everything, every day.

No more gut-feel quoting

Quotes are built from your recipe database: the real food cost per portion flows in automatically, and your margin shows before you hit send. Forward the client's email and AI drafts the first version.

The time and the margin you stop losing.

Four things a catering team gets back once the whole operation runs in one place.

Off every quote cycle: 3 days
Of margin, recovered: 4 pts
Documents chased after a change: 0

Caterers, in their own words

From solo traiteurs to multi-site brigades, teams run their entire operation on one shared workspace, and don't look back.

“We just wanted our invoices and quotes to look like us. Instead, we had to pay $10K to make Odoo stop looking like Odoo.”

Julien Loriers

Founder @ JML

“My ERP thinks I'm selling tables. I sell ginger. Now I've got to pretend my products are 'parts' and 'assemblies'? I just want to run my business, not translate it into furniture.”

Jérôme Degrave

Founder @ Jérôme Degrave

“We want an ERP that doesn't require us to pay at every version update.”

Jérémie Lambin

Founder @ Freddy Met Curry

“Our workflow is what makes us different, but running it on Airtable and Notion is getting messy as we grow. Generic ERPs just don't get us, and we don't want to force our team to change everything.”

Arnaud Tabery

Director @ Foodlovers

“We switched from Notion to Odoo as we scaled, but everything is locked in. I need something that works like we do.”

Patrick Celeghin

Chef Traiteur @ Paulus

“I find out what an event actually cost weeks later, once the invoices land. By then I've already quoted the next one.”

Switching tools has burned you before?We've seen it too.

That's why we built the start differently. Live in one to two weeks, alongside a team that knows the trade.

Migration done for you

Clients, recipes, technical sheets, history: we import from your spreadsheets and your old software. You rebuild nothing.

One module at a time

We start with whatever hurts most, usually quoting, and only widen once that part runs.

Never in peak season

The start is scheduled around your quiet period. We're the ones who insist.

Odoo has a strong opinion on how your company should run: products and orders. Your business runs on events: a date, a venue, covers, a team, a margin. Enobase is built around the event and adapts to your rules, not the other way around.
