Quadra
About Quadra
Quadra is a cloud-based estimating and purchase automation tool, which assists businesses in industries such as HVAC, manufacturing, oil, and gas, with the creation and modification of service contracts and quotes. Key features include bid management, invoicing, role-based permissions, task approvals, and job expense tracking.
With Quadra, professionals can prepare custom estimates or quotes based on location, perform bulk updates, and add approved bids in job cost systems automatically. Users can access equipment and task libraries to build and update contracts and adjust parameters, such as gross margin, cost, material, and sales commission in real-time. Using the vendor requisition module, businesses can generate pricing sheets and import new items and quantities from suppliers in order to compare costs and prepare purchase orders for selected vendors.
Quadra seamlessly integrates with most leading ERP systems, allowing for a more efficient, accurate and automated sales process. Integrated systems eliminate duplicate entries, minimize keying errors, reduce pricing discrepancies and enable version control – among many other advantages.
Quadra offers integration with WennSoft Job Cost and GP Financials, which helps users automate purchasing and invoicing processes. Plus, the solution also comes with a project management module designed to enable supervisors to assign tasks to team members and receive configurable alerts about job progress.

The overall experience was very positive as the implementation was handled by a dedicated person that transitioned to the support team who have provided superior customer support.
Pros
The biggest benefit for us was that Quadra is a sales tool that is database driven which is integrated with our MS Dynamics/Key2Act Service ERP business systems. Quadra allowed the team to move away from an Excel based system to a single source of truth that takes advantage of sharing information with all systems reducing re-entry of like data.
Cons
Since we were early adopters the early releases lacked some basic manipulation functions however ERTH kept a vigorous update and development effort and today many of the missing features are included.

Quadra Streamlined Manual Excel Quoting process

The Quadra team has been great to work with and the software has been adapted nicely by the client to where we are ready to add additional modules.
Pros
The integration of Quadra estimating and quoting functionality with purchasing automation allowed my client to move away from Excel spreadsheets and a complicated integration tool. It not only simplified the process of quoting and tracking jobs but removed the need to create additional records in the system.
Cons
Because it is a web-based application, it does have some limitations on import some types of records, and removing 'bad' records in the system (The wrong job request or job was created) without using the Quadra support. Additional reporting functionalities would be nice to have. Also, customizations are limited because change requests are global, which means it has to be a system change that benefits all Quadra clients. That said, there hasn't been a request made that wasn't achievable.

-Time consuming to navigate and complete a quote
-We've seen many little bugs that make it frustrating to write quotes
Pros
I like how much I can customize a quote for each individual customer.
Cons
We have run across lots of issues that affect our quote writing efficiency. While your team is always working on improving them, it can be a time consuming process to write a quote, and to format the quote letter to be understandable to the customer.

Fantastic! If you are looking for an easy to use platform to manage ordering and contracts, ERTH really delivers!
Pros
Ease of installation and use. Very flexible formats and a GREAT team to help customize Quadra to our needs. Extremely stable and reliable.
Cons
Only real downside is after hours support. However, the Account management team is great in responding on holidays or weekends if mission critical and helping get issues resolved,...which are very rare.
