Compare: Quoting and sales

Quoter alternative: Tenvara

Quoter, now part of ScalePad, is a quoting tool many MSPs connect to their PSA, distributors and accounting package. Tenvara builds quoting into the same app as your tickets, contracts and licences. When a customer signs, recurring items go on their contract and one-off work becomes a ticket, with no hand-off between tools.

  • E-signatures, online payment and automated reminders in the client experience.
  • Manager approval workflows and cost and margin tracking.
