The short answer

QuoteIQ is a CRM for home service companies. Its InstaQuote self-quote tool comes with the Elite plan at $299 a month, along with invoicing, scheduling and payments. Measured Bid is estimating software for exterior contractors. It measures the house from aerial roof data and prices gutters, painting, siding, roofing, permanent lighting, Christmas lights and pressure washing, from $99 a month.

Choose on what you need around the quote. QuoteIQ runs estimates, jobs, invoices and payments in one app. Measured Bid measures and prices the job, then sends the lead to the CRM you already use.
