Roof Estimating Software that Works!®

Reduce Waste Reduce Errors Improve Efficiency Make More Money!

With customers in 42 countries, AppliCad knows a thing or two about roofing and cladding software.

Your business doesn't make money costing, quoting, designing, documenting, drawing, scheduling, organising and managing. These things are important.

However, you only make money supplying material and installing the roof or wall. AppliCad will significantly reduce the time spent on non-income-earning administration and significantly speed up the actual income earning task of installing roofing.

Improve the accuracy of your quotes, improve productivity and efficiency, reduce the error rate, reduce waste and increase profitability.

AppliCad software helps you make money by increasing sales!

The AppliCad Process

AppliCad helps your business because the processes are precise and more efficient. It works because it is "a defined process" and it gives you greater control over the systems within your business. The roofing software 'works' for you on different levels - it is fun and easy to use and will bring significant improvements to your roofing business.

There is no roof that we cannot model using the AppliCad software - for examples of some of these, click here - Examples

Prepare detailed reports for your solar panel customers in minutes, not hours. This SolarReport shows an example of what elements you can output and include in your solar report.

Close more sales with quality presentation materials. And do it all for less cost than you would expect.

AppliCad Mobile Updated for Windows 7

Of particular interest at this year’s International Trade Show were the upgrades AppliCad has completed that take full advantage of the new Windows 7 operating system, especially on the tablet PC configuration.  The AppliCad tablet interface was first released over 6 years ago and has remained largely unchanged since, as it just worked so well on the tablet PC.  We see this being useful for collecting measurement information and digitising roof shapes in the field.  The process is simple - Sketch a roof shape free-hand; then use the ‘auto-scale’ tools to create the actual shape and size of the roof, based on real measurements.

The latest release of the AppliCad suite of programs has seen over 12 months of enhancements and new development that is the result of feedback from the AppliCad operators in 38 countries.
