Description
Been using Joist Invoices for Contractors for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that helps you create professional estimates and invoices for your contracting business. Pretty solid if you’re a tradie who’s tired of the paperwork hassle.
Here’s what you can do – you can quickly build estimates and invoices by picking from your pre-loaded lists of materials and labor rates. There’s also a way to accept payments right in the app, which is pretty convenient. And the business reports feature is useful for keeping track of your projects.
Look, if you’re a contractor who wants to streamline your billing and invoicing, you’ll probably dig this app. It’s not perfect – the interface can be a little clunky at times – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you want to save time and look more professional.
Editor Opinion
So here's my take on Joist Invoices for Contractors. I've tested a bunch of invoicing and billing apps for contractors, and this one's one of the better ones I've used. The estimating and invoicing features work really well, and I like how you can customize your materials and labor lists. And the payment processing is a nice bonus too. On the downside, the design could be a bit more polished, and I wish there were more advanced reporting features. But overall, it's a pretty solid option if you're in the trades.
