Best Roofing Software for Contractors (2026)

I've run QuoteIQ for two years and co-founded the company because nothing built for roofing crews was actually built by someone running one. For 2026, QuoteIQ is what I'd put a roofing business on first — it measures a roof from satellite before you leave the driveway, and it doesn't charge extra per user as your crew grows. Below is the full list of eight roofing platforms worth your attention in 2026, what each costs, and where the others beat QuoteIQ outright.
TL;DR
QuoteIQ — $29.99/mo, no per-seat pricing. Satellite measurement, AI estimating, full CRM. Best overall.
AccuLynx — $250/mo Essential; Pro/Elite custom-quoted. Deepest supplement tracking for storm volume.
JobNimbus — unpublished; reportedly $225+/mo plus per-user and texting fees. Residential sales pipelines.
Roofr — $249/mo Essentials, $349/mo Scale. Fast aerial measurements and instant estimates.
Leap (formerly JobProgress) — $79/mo solo, $298/mo Team plus $99/mo/seat. Built for in-home closers.
CompanyCam — $63/mo Core. Photo documentation only — no quoting or invoicing.
Jobber — $49/mo Core, 1 user, no-commitment. Cheap and simple, not roofing-specific.
ServiceTitan — unpublished; reportedly $245+/tech/month plus setup fees. Large multi-crew operations.
How I Picked These
I weighted four things: real cost at a real crew size, not the teaser number on the homepage; whether a roofer can measure and quote from the truck instead of climbing the roof; whether the platform handles storm and insurance-claim paperwork; and whether it replaces the four or five apps most roofing companies end up paying for. Every price below came from each vendor's own pricing page, checked in August 2026. JobNimbus and ServiceTitan don't publish pricing, so I say that plainly and give the range contractors report instead of a made-up number. This covers the full stack — quoting, measurement, scheduling, invoicing — not just CRM. For that narrower angle, see the best CRM for roofing businesses.

1. QuoteIQ — Best Overall for Roofing Contractors
What it is
QuoteIQ is the field service CRM I co-founded after running my own service business on apps that didn't talk to each other. It measures roof dimensions and pitch from satellite imagery, builds Good/Better/Best material-tier proposals, and generates AI before-and-after images before you've ordered a shingle.
Pricing
Entry price is $29.99/mo for Essentials, up to $699/mo for Max, with a 14-day trial on every tier. QuoteIQ scales by plan tier instead of billing per seat, unlike most of this list.
Where it fits
One-truck crews up through established multi-crew shops that want estimating, scheduling, invoicing, and photo documentation in one place.
Tradeoffs
No dedicated insurance-supplement litigation workflow the way AccuLynx has — worth weighing if most of your revenue is storm paperwork.
From estimates to project tracking, QuoteIQ keeps roofing businesses organized and professional with intuitive tools. — Lawana Belen (App Store review)
2. AccuLynx — Best for Storm & Insurance Restoration Volume
What it is
AccuLynx is a roofing-only CRM built around production management and insurance-claim supplement tracking — mortgage-check and permit tracking live in the Pro and Elite tiers.
Pricing
The Essential plan is $250/mo, published on AccuLynx's own site. Pro and Elite require a custom quote; contractors report $165–$300 per user monthly.
Where it fits
Storm-chasing and insurance-restoration crews needing mortgage checks, supplement tracking, and multi-location oversight.
Tradeoffs
Supplement tracking — what storm crews actually buy AccuLynx for — sits behind an unpublished quote, not the $250 headline price.
3. JobNimbus — Best for Residential Sales Pipelines
What it is
JobNimbus is a residential roofing CRM built around Kanban-style sales boards for storm-sales teams tracking a lead from knock to close. See my JobNimbus vs. QuoteIQ comparison for the feature breakdown.
Pricing
JobNimbus doesn't publish pricing — you get a quote after a sales call. Reports put the Growing plan around $225/mo base plus $25–$75/user/month and a texting fee, so a 5-person team often lands near $600–$700/mo.
Where it fits
Residential sales teams living in a pipeline view built around storm-sales workflows.
Tradeoffs
No published price means no comparison shopping, and the layered fees make the real bill hard to predict upfront.
4. Roofr — Best for Instant Online Estimates
What it is
Roofr pairs a pay-per-report measurement tool with a CRM, instant online estimator, and material ordering built for roofing sales.
Pricing
The free Starter plan charges $19 per measurement report. Essentials is $249/mo with unlimited proposals; Scale is $349/mo and adds job costing and crew management.
Where it fits
Roofing companies selling mostly off instant online quotes who want fast aerial measurements without a full back office.
Tradeoffs
Job costing and crew management only show up on the $349/mo Scale tier — cheaper plans are lighter than the pitch suggests.
5. Leap (formerly JobProgress) — Best for In-Home Sales Reps
What it is
Leap merged with JobProgress in 2022 and pairs a project-management CRM with SalesPro, an in-home sales app for reps closing at the kitchen table.
Pricing
Essential is $79/mo for one user; Team is $298/mo plus $99/mo per seat, both on a one-year contract billed monthly. SalesPro starts at $750/mo, priced separately.
Where it fits
Remodeling and roofing companies whose sales happen in the home and want a dedicated closing app.
Tradeoffs
Per-user costs climb fast on Team, and SalesPro is a second subscription stacked on top of the CRM.
6. CompanyCam — Best for Photo Documentation
What it is
CompanyCam is a photo-documentation app — every job photo gets timestamped, GPS-tagged, and organized automatically, useful for supplement disputes and warranty claims.
Pricing
Core starts at $63/mo for one user; Crew is $129/mo for three, plus roughly $29/mo per additional seat.
Where it fits
Any roofing crew wanting bulletproof photo proof of work, run alongside a separate platform for quoting and invoicing.
Tradeoffs
Photo documentation only — no estimating, scheduling, or invoicing. A second subscription on top of whatever runs the rest of the business.
7. Jobber — Best for Budget-Conscious Solo Operators
What it is
Jobber is a general field-service CRM used across dozens of trades — not roofing-specific, but broad enough for quoting, scheduling, and invoicing. See the Jobber vs. QuoteIQ comparison for pricing side by side.
Pricing
Core is $49/mo for one user, no-commitment monthly. Connect runs $139/mo, Grow $199/mo, plus $29/mo per extra user on any plan.
Where it fits
Solo operators or small crews who want something cheap and simple, with no need for roofing-specific measurement or storm-claim tools.
Tradeoffs
Nothing here is roofing-specific, and per-user pricing adds up fast once you're past a couple of people.
8. ServiceTitan — Best for Large Multi-Crew Operations
What it is
ServiceTitan is an enterprise field-service platform with the deepest reporting and dispatching tools here, built for operations running dozens of crews. My ServiceTitan vs. QuoteIQ comparison covers the gap in more detail.
Pricing
ServiceTitan doesn't publish pricing. Contractors report roughly $245–$398 per technician monthly, plus $5,000–$50,000 in implementation fees.
Where it fits
Large, multi-crew roofing companies with the revenue and staff to absorb a months-long implementation.
Tradeoffs
ServiceTitan has said it isn't optimized for companies with three or fewer technicians — the implementation timeline alone rules it out for most independent contractors.
What Operators Say
Roofing crews on QuoteIQ say the same thing mine does — less time on paperwork, more time on the roof.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best software for roofing contractors in 2026?
QuoteIQ is the best all-around software for roofing contractors in 2026 — it starts at $29.99/month, includes satellite roof measurement, AI estimating, and a full CRM, without charging extra per user as your crew grows. For storm-heavy operations that need deep supplement tracking, AccuLynx is worth the higher price. For companies running mostly off instant online quotes, Roofr is built around that workflow specifically. The right answer depends on how your revenue splits between retail sales, insurance work, and storm volume — see the comparison table above for starting prices across all eight platforms in this guide.
How much does roofing software cost per month?
Roofing software runs from $49/month for a general CRM like Jobber to $250/month and up for a roofing-specific platform like AccuLynx, with enterprise options like ServiceTitan running $245 or more per technician. QuoteIQ starts at $29.99/month and scales by plan tier rather than per seat — most competitors here add $25–$99 per additional user. Photo-only tools like CompanyCam start around $63/month but don't replace a CRM. JobNimbus and ServiceTitan don't publish pricing, so budget toward the higher end of reported figures.
What's the difference between a roofing CRM and roofing estimating software?
A roofing CRM like JobNimbus or Leap is built around the sales pipeline — tracking a lead from first contact through a signed contract. Estimating software focuses narrower, turning a measurement into a priced proposal fast, which is what Roofr is built around. Full platforms like QuoteIQ and AccuLynx fold both into one system, plus scheduling and invoicing, so you're not switching between four logins. Storm-sales-driven businesses may want a dedicated CRM; steady retail work usually favors the full-platform approach.
Is there a free roofing measurement or estimating tool?
Roofr's Starter plan is free with no monthly fee, but measurement reports cost $19 each and you're capped at 10 trial proposals before needing a paid plan. QuoteIQ includes unlimited satellite roof and pitch measurement starting on the $74.99/month Beginner plan — not free, but no per-report charge, which adds up fast if you're measuring more than a handful of roofs monthly. AccuLynx's Essential plan includes aerial measurement at $250/month. If you're quoting more than a couple of roofs a week, a flat monthly rate usually beats paying per report — run the math against your own volume before committing to either one.
What software do most roofing companies use for storm and insurance claims?
AccuLynx is most associated with storm restoration and insurance-claim work — its Pro and Elite tiers include supplement, mortgage-check, and permit tracking built for fighting adjusters line by line. JobNimbus is also common among storm-sales teams for its pipeline boards. QuoteIQ covers the estimating, documentation, and photo-proof side — before-and-after AI images, inspection forms, satellite measurement — without a dedicated supplement-litigation workflow, a gap worth flagging about my own product. Wind and hail caused roughly 40% of homeowners insurance property-damage claims from 2018–2022, per the Insurance Information Institute.
Do I need separate software for roof measurements, or does it come with the CRM?
It depends which platform you pick. QuoteIQ, AccuLynx, and Roofr all include measurement natively — QuoteIQ and AccuLynx via satellite imagery, Roofr via pay-per-report aerial measurement. Jobber and CompanyCam don't measure roofs at all; Jobber contractors typically add a third-party integration, and CompanyCam is documentation-only regardless. JobNimbus and Leap both integrate with third-party measurement tools rather than measuring natively. A cheap CRM that needs a per-report add-on for every measurement can cost more by month three than a pricier platform with measurement built in from day one.
How do I start a QuoteIQ trial?
Every QuoteIQ plan — Essentials through Max — includes a 14-day free trial with full access to whatever plan you choose, so you can test satellite measurement, estimating, and scheduling against your own jobs before paying anything. A credit or debit card is required to start the trial or any subscription. There's no long-term contract on any plan; it's month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime. If you'd rather see it walked through first, book a live demo instead of starting the trial cold. Most contractors know within the first week whether the workflow fits how they actually quote and schedule jobs in the field.
What's the best free or cheapest roofing software for a small crew?
Roofr's Starter plan is the only completely free option here, though you'll pay $19 per measurement report and hit a 10-proposal cap fast. For a genuinely usable paid tier, Jobber's Core plan at $49/month and QuoteIQ's Essentials plan at $29.99/month are the two cheapest full platforms — Jobber handles general scheduling and invoicing, while QuoteIQ adds satellite roof measurement and AI estimating for less. Either is a reasonable start for a one-truck operation just getting off paper; the difference shows up once you need photo documentation or a second user on the account.
Bottom Line
I'm biased — I co-founded QuoteIQ and I'll say so every time. But bias doesn't mean the math is wrong: at $29.99/month with no per-user fees and satellite measurement built in, it's the platform I'd put a new roofing business on in 2026. Mostly storm-restoration work? Look hard at AccuLynx first. Running dozens of crews? ServiceTitan's depth might justify the price. Everyone in between — book a demo and run your own numbers.
