One thing I’ve been thinking about with the “you’re not charging enough” conversation is how contractors actually know when a price is enough. Raising prices is one thing, but if you don’t know the fully loaded cost behind the job, it’s still possible to raise the price and have less margin than you think. And a quote that looks fine initially can change pretty quickly when materials run over, labour takes longer, or the customer asks for a discount.

I’ve been testing a simple free calculator around this — you enter the job costs and target margin, then stress-test the quote against things like discounts and cost overruns. Full disclosure: I’m involved in testing it. There’s no signup or payment. I’m mainly trying to see whether contractors actually find this useful before taking it any further.

Contractor Job Cost & Profit Calculator — Job Profit Stress Test

Calculate what to charge for a job, then stress-test your profit against discounts, material increases and extra labour.

First picture added to project automatically gets set as cover photo.

Hey, Cody! I sent you a PM!

The feature to filter the map based on projects is limited to the web-app. Since most users are mobile users, this feature seems to be biased on non-field users. Please consider making that change for users not sitting at a desk all day.

Hello peers,

Does anyone use QUO for managing a company phone number? We are improving our client facing communication and sharing coverage of the main phone - we need to move beyond having to physically possess the main line (iPhone) to communicate from it.

Open to suggestions too! As of now looking for pretty basic functionality.

Thanks,
Cody

Can you add the ability to minimize the blue sidebar on the web app? It takes up valuable real estate on the page when viewing project photos, creating reports, etc. I've seen the functionality on other web apps, so I'd imagine it's technically possible.

Next time you clock in on a project, snap a photo while you're at it.

It gets tagged with "clock in," stamped with the date and time, and dropped right onto your timesheet next to your hours. So instead of a row of numbers, you've got a visual record of the job. A few ways crews are already using it: a shot of the truck in the driveway to start the day, a quick crew photo when everyone shows up, or a photo of the finished area to clock out.

Takes one extra second and turns your timesheet into proof of the work.

You have early access to Time Tracking, no cost to you while we fine-tune things. We'll give you a heads-up before pricing kicks in.

How are you using the clock-in photo on your jobs? Drop a screenshot or tell us your routine below.

Hey Maria!

Thanks for this one, it's a great call out. Right now, Collaborators are tied to individual projects, so there's no way to save a group of people and pull them into a new project without sending a fresh invite each time. If you're working with the same subs over and over, I can see how re-inviting them on every Project gets old.

We don't have a saved Collaborator list like you're describing just yet, but it's exactly the kind of thing our product team wants to see, so I've passed your request along to them.

Requests like this one genuinely help the team figure out what to build next, so thanks for taking the time to write it up. Keep 'em coming!

I love the Invoice feature already. Here's my #1 request, though. Item quantities should allow decimal values, and allow less than one. Labor is the #1 line item we'd need it for, but for us as electricians, we'll bill partials for pulling lube, silicone, phase tape, etc.

Hey, Decimals are supported on mobile so if you need to send an invoice with decimals please use mobile. We will update web today to support decimals. Thank you for flagging this!

Let us add regular collaborators instead of having to invite them to each project they collaborate in. As in, let us keep a collaborator database and choose from there when adding collaborators to a project.

Hi again!

We hear you on the urgency, and we've made sure this is with our product team along with your other note about photos in Proposal. And please let us know if you have any other suggestions! We want Proposals to be as smooth a process as possible for our Users.

Megan M. · Aug 20, 2026

Hi there,

Thanks so much for taking the time to share this! That's a really valid pain point, and we completely understand why jumping back and forth between the project and Proposals to edit a photo feels tedious, especially when you're trying to get something out to a client quickly.

I've passed this along to our product team. While I don't have a timeline to share right now, feedback like yours is exactly what helps shape what we build next, so it's genuinely helpful to hear how this fits into your workflow.

If anything changes on this front, we'll be sure to update this thread. Thanks again for flagging it!

I desperately need the ability to do this! How soon can y'all get it working?

jdavila20 · Aug 19, 2026

I would love the ability to be able to edit photos while in proposals so that I can quickly send over to a client. I am finding it very tedious to have to go back and do a project and edit the photo to then come back to proposals for uploading and organizing prior to sending it. Anyway, this functionality will be available soon?

Dustin-CC-Payments · Aug 19, 2026

Hi there. I'm the product manager who is working on the price book and quick follow-up question for you. Are you wanting to hide the price book items for standard and restricted users who are creating proposals, or do you want to hide pricing from standard and restricted users who do not need to create proposals or have access to proposals?

anonymous · Aug 19, 2026

Right now there isn’t a setting to hide Price Book pricing from Standard or Restricted users. So my company is not able to use it. However, a toggle button to hide from other users would be helpful and make it more appealing.

thank you!

I like this update request as well with a slight tweak. In the Projects section of the website I want to be able to search by "Assigned Projects." With one click I want to see the projects that have been assigned to me.

Inspired Closets South Fl · Aug 19, 2026

Hello! We would like to have the option to tag a group on a task. The function would look the same way you can tag a group on a project conversation.

haileyWRE · Aug 18, 2026

Great! Yes, this was for advanced checklists. It looks like Classic Checklists are able to do what I was looking for, but with a less of the capabilities I was needing with advanced. I look forward to that possibility in the future! Thank you.

Shayla C. · Aug 18, 2026

Hi, Hailey!

I'm curious: are you and your team using Advanced Checklists instead of Classic Checklists? I ask because we're still actively developing this feature, and this functionality might not be available yet.

I've gone ahead and passed your feedback on to our team, who are improving Advanced Checklists. If you have anything else to share, please feel free to reply, and I'll pass it along!

Do you have an update on when we will see the "My Stuff" section on the desktop version of the software?

haileyWRE · Aug 17, 2026

Hello,

I am a Project Manager using Company Cam and have a checklist template I need to complete for each audit. It would be really helpful to be able to see the progress of that checklist from the Group Overview page. However, as I can see now, checklist templates do not show up on that page. Is this something that can be integrated there? Thank you!

I'm honestly surprised this isn't already a feature.

The mobile app should have a toggle for taking photos with a handheld 360 camera that is bluetooth connected to the mobile device. I should be able to select my Insta360 camera as the source of photos. Then, the desktop website would need to add support for viewing/interacting with 360 photos.

Looking for solutions to doing jobsite walkthroughs with a 360 camera. We already subscribe to companycam and would love it if this was in the product offering. I don't want another subscription.

Another facet of this could be to add support for drawing sets. Going on a site walk?

1. Create new companycam project
2. Upload drawing set
3. Walk through job with 360 camera, taking photos and mapping them to the drawing set.
4. Review drawing set back at a computer and view the 360 photos, mapped to specific locations on the drawing set.

Real-estate agents do this, and I think companycam should as well.

Hey there, thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you're excited about using Boards as your Project pipeline!

Good news: you don't need to touch your browser zoom at all. On the web app, you can navigate horizontally between columns using the arrow buttons in the top right of the Board view. Just click through them to move across your Board stage by stage, no matter how many columns you've got set up. I'm sharing an attachment showing where those arrows are located.

That should get you back to viewing everything at a comfortable, readable size while still having full visibility into every stage of your pipeline.

That said, your feedback about comparing the desktop experience to the Android app genuinely helps shape where we take the feature next. So thank you for taking the time to lay it out so clearly.

Let us know how that's working for you. We're always excited to see how teams are putting Boards to use!
