Estimate portal - Tired of following up on your estimates and chasing deposits? With Commusoft's estimates portal, your customers review and accept an estimate online with a few easy clicks, straight from their email. If there's an initial deposit due, you can even take the payment right then and there. Advanced invoicing and payment tracking.
Invoice portal – With customer journey being as important as it is today, the online invoice portal reduces non-payments by giving customers convenient ways to pay bills. With just a few clicks, a customer can pay their invoice via credit or debit card from anywhere - Read more on our website here.
Consolidated invoicing - When completing many jobs for one customer, it seems unnecessary to send multiple separate invoices. This is likely unappreciated by your customers and could result in an invoice or payment getting missed. Consolidated invoices solve this problem by allowing you to combine many invoices into one. Each individual invoice, job, and price is listed and totalled, so the full amount can be paid off in one go. This is ideal when working with property maintenance companies and estate agents as you can invoice multiple jobs across their properties at once.
Onsite payments – Using our integration with SumUp, you can take a card payment while out in the field, completely removing the headache of chasing for late or non-payments
More advanced scheduling - Our customisable shift patterns display directly on the diary, allowing office staff to instantly see when engineers are available, unavailable, or in an overtime shift so you can easily send the right person for the job. Additionally, our intelligent scheduling software improves efficiency by automating the complex process of routing and scheduling jobs. With powerful route optimisation, you can maximise your engineer utilisation, decrease driving time and fuel costs, and reduce the admin burden.
Your new package also offers more flexibility by providing integrations with a wider range of services, including:
Payment integrations
Calendar integrations
NaturalForms
MailChimp
Zapier
In addition to all of these features, you will also get 30Gb of data online storage per license as well as phone support from our helpdesk.
