QuoteCloud vs Quotient
Keep the client-friendly online quote, and add designed proposals, certified eSignatures, built-in payments, AI and your CRM.
The short answer. QuoteCloud is the better Quotient alternative when you need more than a simple quote. Both let clients pick optional items and change quantities, but QuoteCloud adds a free plan, eIDAS-compliant eSignatures with a certificate of authenticity on every plan, Stripe and PayPal payments, a drag-and-drop design editor, AI Co-Worker and CRM integrations. Quotient, from US$28 a month, suits trades wanting fast, simple quotes.
