What is Handyman Software?

Ready for your next project? With online handyman software, you can effortlessly schedule, manage and oversee multiple jobs with one platform.

Key Benefits of Handyman Software

Custom client database

Keep track of key client information with handyman software’s in-built custom client database. Store client information, billing addresses, project notes, and more in one easily accessible location.  

In-built billing and invoicing capabilities 

Make managing your business’ finances easier with handyman software. Track upcoming expenses, create and send invoices, process payments, and automatically send reminders for overdue bills. 

Flexible booking options  

Disaster doesn’t always strike during business hours. Introduce more flexibility into your booking process and allow clients to schedule appointments in their own time with an online booking calendar. With real-time availability updates, you don’t have to worry about double-booking. 

Automated appointment reminders

Avoid missed appointments and make sure clients are home when you need them with automated appointment reminders. Send email and text message alerts about upcoming appointments, travel delays, or changes to the schedule.

Streamlined scheduling options 

With handyman software, scheduling employees is easier than ever. Manage travel times and routes, plan schedules, share with employees and accept and review vacation requests, all without leaving the platform. 

Online project management 

Create a project database within the platform to keep track of current and upcoming jobs. Store contracts, plans, project notes, timelines, and due dates in one place and easily send out employee reminders or receive real-time progress updates through the app.
