@QuotePlus
Subcontracting Software

Designed for subcontractors

Having written software for many different industries, we long ago recognized that contractors have needs that no other industry does when it comes to software. No off-the-shelf or general contracting application will do what you need it to, so we introduced our flagship product for the contracting industry back in 1998: @QuotePlus.

Provide a bid to your client in less than a minute

@QuotePlus is designed to ease the front-end chores of subcontracting businesses, providing the ability to easily generate proposals, invoices, and work tickets without doing double or triple-entry. It also allows for quick follow through with scheduling, job costing, real-time inventory tracking, labor costing and payroll, salesperson commissions, and accounts receivable.

Designed BY Contractors

With our focus on learning how our clients work, we have been able to take the ideas and suggestions of others in your field and turn them into something you can use to manage your business effectively. You will find many of the things in @QuotePlus that up until now you could only wish for, and we are constantly adding new enhancements as our clients ask for them. Just some of the products and services our clients use @QuotePlus to manage:

Insulation

Gutters

Garage Doors

Waterproofing

Drywall

Fireplaces

Painting

Shelving

Roofing

Cultured stone

Drainage systems

Railings and fences

Making it better

One of the ways we make @QuotePlus better is by implementing interfaces to other products and systems – this further cuts down on repetitive tasks and leverages those systems' functionality to make your life that much easier. @QuotePlus can interface to various accounting packages like Quickbooks©, Peachtree©/Sage 50©, MAS90/MAS200©, and payroll services like ADP®, Paychex™ and Ceridian™. We also leverage the power of the Internet by allowing you to email bids, invoices, and statements, obtain maps and driving directions, synchronize invoice and payment info with your website's payment gateway, and much more!

The other way we improve @QuotePlus is by constantly adding new features and enhancements, and rolling them out to our customers as frequently as possible. There are always new reports, options, and functionality in the development pipeline, usually fueled by suggestions and requests from our customers, and there is usually new stuff available every month. When a feature conflicts with existing logic or functionality, we add that feature as an option – we have learned that everyone runs their businesses differently, and having many options to do things differently makes for a product that will be more likely to meet your needs.

Here are just a few features that @QuotePlus has to offer:

Estimating
With an easy-to-learn-and-use feel and powerful tools like copying, templates, kits, profit-percentage pricing, and more, you can generate a bid in as little as 30 seconds and then e-mail it directly to the client with the salesperson's signature already on it!

Leads
Input and manage your leads, import them from your web site, customize your interview criteria, e-mail appointment cards to your salespeople, and more!

Scheduling
Super-easy drag-n-drop scheduling that simulates your whiteboard, but automatically updates on every user's screen; color coding jobs, scheduling trucks, crews and employees, generating schedules, load sheets, equipment and work tickets are just the beginning!

Work Orders
show material substitutions, installer instructions for each item, automatically get driving directions in English or Spanish, show interactive maps to destinations, generate a load sheet for the truck, and even store and show photos of the job site!

Certificates
Generate certificates (aka attic cards) for all the major manufacturers, as well as different products!

Inventory
Manage multiple inventories for separate companies for different product lines, and know what's out in the warehouse right now and what's reserved for upcoming jobs!

Job Costing
Know the estimated versus actual cost of a job, including material cost, labor cost, burdens, overhead, and other costs for each phase of the job!

Labor/Payroll
Pay your employees using any combination of piecerate, flat dollar, quantity, and hourly pay methods on any job, even at the individual line item level; calculate daily and/or weekly overtime, and even feed it all directly to ADP®, Ceridian®, or Paychex®!

Commissions
Pay your salespeople commissions at flat rates or on sliding profitability scales based on job type; you can even verify the invoice has been paid by the customer first, and reduce the commission rate over time unpaid!

Invoicing
Invoice out all or parts of a job either on demand or automatically, generate progress bill or AIA invoices, and have them automatically e-mailed directly to your customers!

A/R
In addition to the expected invoices, payments, and statements, you can see the aging by salesperson, apply deposits to open jobs, apply payments between customers, and interface to third-party accounting packages like QuickBooks®, Peachtree®, MAS90® , MAS200®, and others; you can even have @QuotePlus interface to your web site to allow your customers to pay their invoices on line with credit cards!

Streamline/Organize
eliminate double or triple-entry and have information at your fingertips, e-mail reports directly or save them to view in other applications, define what your users can and can't do or see and track their activities!

Grow
Manage multiple companies and multiple product lines from fireplaces to closet shelving to waterproofing to garage doors, leverage new features monthly, and use the power of the Internet to kick your estimators out of the office and have them generating proposals on the job site from their vehicles!

Licensing
@QuotePlus for your business is as easy to do as it is to use. No complicated per-seat or per-user fees, just one fee per branch of your business. You are not limited to the number of computers in each location that have the software installed. We also back it up with unlimited support calls.

Support
The best product is made even better by the best support - while @QuotePlus is designed for reliability and ease of maintenance, included in the subscription fee for @QuotePlus is 24x7 support, simply because you never know.

Further, we have built our business around offering the best customer service in the industry, bar none. You get to talk to people who are not only knowledgeable, but nice. When was the last time you got both of those from an IT company?

Demo & References
But don't take our word for it. Contact us today to schedule a demonstration, and we will follow it up with actual insulation contractor references you can talk to. They will tell you that it's the best application for their businesses, and it can be for yours, too. You owe it to yourself and your business to join the @QuotePlus family.
