FloorIQ vs FloorWizard

FloorIQ is web-based estimating, quoting, purchasing, and job-management software for commercial flooring contractors. Its workflow covers bids, quotes, purchase orders, warehouse inventory, crew scheduling, invoicing, payroll, and job profitability. Estimates use material-cost and labor-rate libraries, live margins, revisions, branded PDF proposals, and online signatures. Takeoff exports in.xlsx,.xls, or.csv format, including MeasureSquare exports, can be converted into takeoff line items. Purchasing includes order acknowledgements, price-variance tracking, roll and lot tracking, barcode cycle counts, delivery tickets, and reorder suggestions. Crew days connect to required purchase orders, and delivery-date changes flag affected scheduled days. Weekly payroll handles regular, overtime, double-time, classifications, weekly-salary employees, printable paystubs, and exports. FloorIQ exports financial and payroll data as CSV for QuickBooks posting, but has no live two-way sync. The free plan allows five projects with no time limit; Pro costs $500 a month per company for up to 10 users.

FloorWizard is an internet-accessible system for scheduling, estimating, selling, and managing flooring jobs. It measures projects, estimates materials and labor, supports refiguring estimates around alternate materials, and includes on-site closing functions. Project tools include tracking, appointment scheduling, search, reporting, and team assignments. Projects can be accessed from internet-enabled computers and shared between remote locations through a managed central database that FloorSoft says has no additional hosting cost. User access levels can be customized by type, and administrators can control access to projects. The system can create installation documents and email documents directly to customers. Measurement workflows support a Tablet PC and Bluetooth laser, including the Leica e7100i. FloorWizard also supports takeoff measurements, material orders, installation scheduling, job costing, invoicing, and payments. FloorSoft describes it for flooring retailers, installers, restoration businesses, and renovation companies. Pricing is on request, and the product page offers a free demo. The setup guide specifies Windows XP or higher and Internet Explorer 7 or higher for desktop access; Mac access requires third-party software that replicates Windows. FloorSoft says support is available 24/7 and provides training guides and videos.
