What do our users love most about SimplyWise?

"Used this so I wouldn’t go over budget on a renovation. The scanner knows exactly what’s in the image and gets pretty specific! I only had to change a couple things, which was no problem. You can save the project to update it as you go. Now I’m using it as an expense tracker!" - Rdfhii

"The numbers are accurate and the app lists all possible expenses, so I don’t have to worry if I missed something or if my bid was too low or too high. I know what it’s going to cost me and I can bid accordingly." - krisn001

"Has been so helpful while I’ve been doing home renovations! I’m new to a lot of the projects we’ve been working on, so it’s been so nice to be able to plan for what each phase will cost. Great app!!" - soonermom76

Ratings and reviews

Great app, exactly what I was looking for. I especially like that you can send a link to clients and have them fill out info for you and upload photos. a couple suggestions. The app has poor state management, when I need to switch between apps often times I will go back and I have to start from the beginning ,2 it would be nice to use the receipt app and be able to add them line by line to replace the cost on the estimate and then have it save that cost info as future prices of item.

Simply Wise is a good estimating app. I think there are plenty of bugs that need to be worked out. 1. I like how adjustments can be made to the estimates like quantized, price and deletion of items. 2. when transferring between the pages data is lost or randomly changes. 3. sales tax is applied to the entire order of labor and materials. 4. Mark up percentage is also applied to the entire ticket. 5. if an estimate is not accepted, where is the declined button. etc etc etc

I was skeptical at first, but this app has proven to be really helpful. There are a few downsides though. 1) when converting estimate to invoice, it changes the amount (not by much but still annoying 2) when converting estimate to an invoice it just bunches everything together - it should keep labor and materials separate 3) invoices should be more editable. 4) pricing for materials is usually not accurate - I usually shop at home depot and have to check their pricing before sending
