QuoteWerks – More Than Just a Quoting Solution
When most people think of QuoteWerks, they immediately associate it with fast, accurate, and professional quoting. And while that’s certainly its core strength, QuoteWerks is far more than just a quoting tool. It’s a powerful business enablement platform that streamlines operations, enhances customer relationships, and integrates seamlessly with your existing systems.
In this article, we’ll explore some of the lesser-known but incredibly valuable features of QuoteWerks that can transform the way your business operates.
1. CRM and PSA Integration
QuoteWerks integrates with a wide range of CRM and PSA systems like Salesforce, Zoho, ConnectWise, Autotask, and more. This means your sales team can create quotes directly from within their CRM, eliminating double data entry and ensuring consistency across platforms. It also allows for real-time syncing of customer data, quote statuses, and follow-ups.
Benefit: Improved efficiency and data accuracy across your sales and service teams.
2. Product and Service Maintenance
Managing your product and service catalogue is a critical part of the quoting process—and QuoteWerks makes it easy. It includes a built-in product database that allows you to store and organize your offerings with detailed descriptions, pricing, and availability.
But it doesn’t stop there. QuoteWerks also gives you the flexibility to:
- Link to external databases such as your ERP or accounting system, ensuring your product data is always up to date and consistent across platforms.
- Use Etilize integration to search for real-time product information, images, and specifications from a wide range of distributors—perfect for resellers and IT providers who need accurate, current data at their fingertips.
Benefit: Centralized, accurate product and service data that reduces quoting errors and improves efficiency.
3. Procurement and Purchasing Automation
Once a quote is accepted, QuoteWerks can automatically generate purchase orders and send them to your vendors. It supports multiple distributors and can even check real-time pricing and availability from suppliers like Ingram Micro, Tech Data, and D&H.
Benefit: Faster order processing and reduced manual errors in procurement.
4. Document Automation and Customization
QuoteWerks allows you to create highly customized quote and proposal templates, complete with branding, images, and dynamic content. You can also automate the generation of related documents like cover letters, terms and conditions, and service agreements.
Benefit: Professional, consistent documentation that saves time and enhances your brand image.
5. Reporting and Forecasting
With built-in reporting tools, QuoteWerks enables you to track sales performance, monitor quote conversion rates, and forecast revenue. You can create custom reports or use pre-built templates to gain insights into your sales pipeline.
Even better, QuoteWerks features an open database, which means you can easily connect it to advanced reporting tools like Microsoft Excel or Power BI. This allows you to build dynamic dashboards, perform deeper data analysis, and visualize trends in ways that are tailored to your business needs.
Benefit: Data-driven decision-making and better visibility into business performance—with the flexibility to scale your reporting as your business grows.
6. E-Signature and Quote Acceptance
QuoteWerks supports electronic signature capture and online quote acceptance, making it easier for clients to approve quotes quickly. This speeds up the sales cycle and provides a seamless experience for your customers.
Benefit: Faster deal closures and improved customer satisfaction.
7. Recurring Revenue and Subscription Management
For businesses offering managed services or subscription-based products, QuoteWerks can handle recurring revenue models. It allows you to quote monthly, quarterly, or annual billing cycles and integrates with accounting systems for invoicing.
Benefit: Simplified management of recurring revenue streams.
8. Real-Time Collaboration and Workflow
Sales teams can collaborate on quotes in real time, assign tasks, and track progress through approval workflows. Managers can review and approve quotes before they’re sent, ensuring quality and compliance.
Benefit: Streamlined team collaboration and improved quote governance.
