A Roofr alternative for contractors who want a full CRM around their measurements

Both companies publish prices and make their own roof reports. AerialReports CRM adds claims, production, permits, supplier ordering and plan-based report discounts.

What is different about AerialReports CRM

Measurements and CRM from one company

AerialReports produces the roof reports and runs the CRM. A delivered report becomes quantities, a 3D roof model and a draft estimate on the job, without exporting from one tool and importing into another.

Prices you can read before talking to anyone

Every plan, seat count and add-on price is on the pricing page. Plan tier also sets a measurement discount from 10% (Solo) to 35% (Enterprise), applied at checkout.

Roof plus siding and exterior

Order roof reports and wall reports with windows, doors and trim, then build trade-grouped estimates for roofing, siding, gutters and other exterior scopes on one job record.

Proposals that sign online

Good/Better/Best proposals with e-signature (Pro and above), co-signer and contractor countersign, and an in-person signing mode for tablets.

Honest insurance exports

Symbility XML export and an Xactimate-formatted export you review and import. When a carrier needs a real Xactimate estimate, request one from the job and our team builds it in their own Xactimate license.

Supplier ordering

Order materials through ABC Supply and QXO from the job.

Estimates built from measurements, with next-step buttons

Who should stay with Roofr

If you mainly need reports and proposals, and Roofr's free Starter or Essentials plan covers your volume at $13 to $19 per report, it may cost you less than a full CRM. AerialReports CRM pays off when you also run claims, production, permits and supplier orders, or order enough reports for the 10% to 35% plan discount to matter.
