Procore vs SubmitX for a Quebec SMB: which one to choose in 2026?

Procore is an established construction management platform, available in French (Canada), with annual quote-based pricing. SubmitX is a younger ERP built for Quebec SMBs, with published prices, CCQ payroll and SEAO tender monitoring. Here is what each one does, backed by verified facts, and who each one suits.

Methodology and transparency: this article is written by the SubmitX team, so we are both judge and party. Every fact about a competitor was checked on October 1, 2026 on its official website, help centre or app store listings (sources at the end of the article). "Not published" means absent from the official website on that date, not that it does not exist. SubmitX launched publicly in June 2026: it is a young company, with less track record than most of the tools compared here.

What Procore does well

Procore is a platform for owners, general contractors, specialty contractors and governments [1]. Its verifiable strengths:

Pricing: on quote, based on construction volume

Procore does not publish its prices. According to its pricing page, the price is an annual contract based on annual construction volume, the products chosen and the type of company [1]. We therefore quote no amount: ask Procore for a quote for your situation.

SubmitX provides its prices on request, depending on the plan: Free · Starter (3 users) · Pro (25 users) · Ultra (25 users and more). Permanent Free plan (unlimited quotes, 0 AI credits) + 7-day trial of the paid plans, no card.

Language and data

Procore can be used in French (Canada) [2]. Its files are stored in a US zone by default, but a Canadian data zone can be selected [3]. SubmitX's database is hosted in Canada (Montréal); some SubmitX subprocessors are in the United States (Anthropic for AI, Vercel, Stripe, Resend, etc.). In both cases, Law 25 (Quebec's privacy law) requires you to assess transfers of personal information outside Quebec.

CCQ payroll and SEAO

Procore's website and help centre mention neither CCQ payroll (CCQ: Commission de la construction du Québec) nor monitoring of SEAO, Quebec's public tendering system (checked on October 1, 2026). SubmitX includes CCQ payroll and SEAO tender monitoring.
