Our verdict on QuoteSoft
QuoteSoft is desktop estimating software for plumbing, piping, HVAC, ductwork, and other mechanical contractors. Its digital takeoff tools work with PDFs, CAD drawings, BIM files, and other electronic plans, while labor-hour and material-cost visibility supports estimating during takeoff. Customizable material databases, specifications, and assemblies help contractors shape estimates around project requirements. Bid preparation, modification, and what-if scenarios extend the product beyond measurement alone.
Pricing is sales-led, so buyers begin with a contact process rather than choosing from published tiers. The product is designed for Windows workstations and can support multi-user installation over a company network. Its ecosystem connects with Dexter + Chaney, Microsoft Project, Microsoft Excel, AutoCAD, Revit, and Navisworks. Excel, CSV, database, and XML exports provide additional ways to move estimate data into other workflows. Phone, web, training, and documentation support are available from the vendor.
The standout depth is its mechanical takeoff focus: automatic pipe generation, pipe-length spooling, and ductwork calculations for rectangular, round, and oval systems address specialized estimating needs. Project-based and on-the-fly assembly creation, specification-driven estimating, and customizable databases add flexibility for recurring trade workflows. QuoteSoft suits MEP estimators who need detailed takeoff and cost visibility tied to CAD and BIM processes. Contractors seeking browser-based access, a broader general-construction focus, or transparent plan pricing should consider alternatives with those characteristics.
