Menuthere vs Soft Restaurant
Soft Restaurant is a Mexican restaurant POS, sold as Soft Restaurant 12 (Windows, works without internet) and Soft Restaurant Cloud (an Android app with a web admin). Online ordering comes from the e-Delivery add-on, which gives the restaurant its own delivery and pickup ordering site, and e-Menu QR lets diners order and pay from a QR menu. It charges a monthly or annual subscription in Mexican pesos, with e-Delivery and the other add-ons bought separately at unpublished prices; Soft Restaurant says e-Delivery takes 0% commission per order.

| Commission per order | 0% | Argentina and Chile: the first 25 Tu Delivery sales are free, then 1.90% + VAT per sale (shown as 50% off a list rate of 3.90%). The restaurant can pass some or all of it to the customer. Mexico: the June 2026 Tu Delivery page listed the same 1.90% + VAT, but the help centre (September 2026) says Tu Delivery is free in Mexico until 1 January 2028. Colombia, Peru and the international site sell Tu Delivery as a monthly module. Fudo's older 'Venta on-line' pages still say the online store has no commissions. | 0% | 0% | 0% | No per-order commission on its own online store or QR menu. But the Chile, Colombia and Peru plans add a share of the restaurant's total monthly net sales (0.7% Básico, 0.5% Avanzado, 0.35% Corporativo in Chile and 0.3% in Peru, plus tax) on top of the monthly fee. The Mexico and Argentina pages show a flat monthly fee only. |
| Contract | Month to month; 7-day free trial on Lite and Pro | Month to month (manual or automatic monthly payment), or 6 or 12 months paid ahead. Payment is due in advance between the 1st and 5th of each month, and unpaid accounts are blocked. The sign-up page says no credit card is needed and you can cancel any time. | No fixed term: the site FAQ says you are not bound to a minimum period and pay month by month ('mes trabajado es mes pagado'). The 2023 booklet also listed an annual fee. | No signed contract required: Poster works under a public offer (a written contract is optional); billing is annual or month to month, and the plan can be changed at any time. | Prepaid plans of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months; the headline prices need the 12-month plan paid upfront. Automatic renewal can be switched off with one click (pricing page FAQ). | Billed monthly in arrears. The terms say the restaurant can cancel at any time after paying what it owes. |
