Contractor+ is an operating system for a contracting company: CRM, dispatch, a business phone, a client portal, and a photo-capable estimator called Estimatic that meters credits by plan. SimplyWise turns a jobsite photo into an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds and opens every app in its suite on one flat price. Here is what each one is actually for.<\/p>\n<div style=\"display:flex;gap:12px;margin-bottom:16px;flex-wrap:wrap\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/swcostestimator.app.link\/ce-ai\" style=\"display:inline-flex;align-items:center;padding:16px 28px;border-radius:10px;font-size:16px;font-weight:600;background:#2563eb;color:#fff;text-decoration:none;box-shadow:0 6px 20px rgba(37,99,235,0.35)\">Try SimplyWise Free &rarr;<\/a><br \/>\n      <a href=\"#comparison\" style=\"display:inline-flex;align-items:center;padding:16px 28px;border-radius:10px;font-size:16px;font-weight:600;background:#1e293b;color:#e2e8f0;text-decoration:none;border:1px solid #334155\">Jump to the table<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size:14px;color:#94a3b8;margin:0\">&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733; 4.8 on the App Store &nbsp;&bull;&nbsp; 7-day free trial<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"flex:0 0 460px\">\n<div style=\"background:#fff;padding:28px 32px;border-radius:16px;box-shadow:0 20px 40px rgba(0,0,0,0.25)\">\n<div style=\"font-size:11px;font-weight:700;color:#2563eb;letter-spacing:0.16em;margin-bottom:6px\">THE VERDICT<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:26px;font-weight:800;color:#0f172a;letter-spacing:-0.01em;margin-bottom:6px\">SimplyWise leads 4 of 14<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:13.5px;color:#64748b;line-height:1.55;margin-bottom:20px\">A side by side read on SimplyWise and Contractor+ across the jobs a working contractor does every week.<\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e6e9ee;margin:0 0 20px 0\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-direction:column;gap:14px\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;font-size:13.5px;margin-bottom:6px\"><span style=\"font-weight:600;color:#0f172a\">SimplyWise wins<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:800;color:#15803d\">4<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#f1f5f9;height:8px;border-radius:999px;overflow:hidden\">\n<div style=\"background:#15803d;width:29%;height:8px;border-radius:999px\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;font-size:13.5px;margin-bottom:6px\"><span style=\"font-weight:600;color:#0f172a\">Features tied<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:800;color:#64748b\">6<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#f1f5f9;height:8px;border-radius:999px;overflow:hidden\">\n<div style=\"background:#64748b;width:43%;height:8px;border-radius:999px\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;font-size:13.5px;margin-bottom:6px\"><span style=\"font-weight:600;color:#0f172a\">Contractor+ wins<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:800;color:#64748b\">4<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"background:#f1f5f9;height:8px;border-radius:999px;overflow:hidden\">\n<div style=\"background:#94a3b8;width:29%;height:8px;border-radius:999px\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e6e9ee;margin:20px 0 16px 0\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display:flex;justify-content:flex-start;align-items:center\"><span style=\"font-size:12px;color:#64748b;font-weight:500\">Verified live: September 2026<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div style=\"background:#f8fafc;padding:20px 120px;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;gap:36px;flex-wrap:wrap;border-bottom:1px solid #e2e8f0;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%\">\n  <span style=\"display:inline-flex;align-items:center;gap:10px;font-size:13.5px;color:#475569;font-weight:500;white-space:nowrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/platform-logo-appstore-v3.svg\" alt=\"App Store\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" style=\"display:block\"\/><span style=\"color:#f59e0b;letter-spacing:1px\">&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;<\/span><span>4.8 on the App Store<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n  <span style=\"display:inline-flex;align-items:center;gap:10px;font-size:13.5px;color:#475569;font-weight:500;white-space:nowrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simplywise.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/platform-logo-trustpilot-icon-v4.svg\" alt=\"Trustpilot\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" style=\"display:block\"\/><span style=\"color:#f59e0b;letter-spacing:1px\">&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;<\/span><span>4.7 on Trustpilot<\/span><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<section style=\"padding:96px 120px;background:#fff;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%\">\n<div style=\"max-width:780px;margin-bottom:48px\">\n<div style=\"font-size:13px;font-weight:700;color:#2563eb;letter-spacing:0.12em;margin-bottom:14px\">WHY CONTRACTORS SWITCH<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:42px;font-weight:800;color:#0f172a;line-height:1.15;letter-spacing:-0.015em;margin:0 0 14px 0\">Three things Contractor+ does not do<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-size:17px;color:#475569;line-height:1.6;margin:0\">Every advantage below traces back to how SimplyWise was built. Mobile first, for a contractor standing in a kitchen with a phone and ten minutes. SimplyWise Cost Estimator turns a jobsite photo into an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds. It is free to try, then $29.99 a month, or $239.99 a year on the annual plan.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:20px;width:100%;box-sizing:border-box\">\n<div style=\"flex:1 1 280px;min-width:280px;background:#f8fafc;border:1px solid #e2e8f0;border-radius:14px;padding:32px;box-sizing:border-box\">\n<div style=\"font-size:13px;font-weight:800;color:#2563eb;letter-spacing:0.1em;margin-bottom:16px\">01<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size:21px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin:0 0 10px 0;line-height:1.25\">Room measurement from the phone<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:15.5px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65;margin:0 0 18px 0\">SimplyWise reads room dimensions off the LiDAR sensor on a Pro iPhone. The measurements land in the estimate with no tape and no plan set. Contractor+ takes measurements the other way. You type them into Estimatic, or you upload an EagleView or Hover report.

SimplyWise will not replace it. If your days run on walk throughs and bids, SimplyWise is faster at the one job that wins work, and it does not meter the estimate.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">Can I run SimplyWise and Contractor+ together?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">Yes. Price the job in SimplyWise on site and send the branded quote. Then carry the approved scope into Contractor+ for scheduling, the client portal and job costing.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">How much does Contractor+ cost?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">Their pricing page, read on September 2, 2026, lists a free FREEDOM plan capped at 5 estimates or invoices a month. PRO is $29 a month on annual billing or $49 month to month for one user. PRO TEAM is $58 a month on annual billing or $98 month to month, with two users included and $20 a month for each additional user on annual billing. MAX is $597 month to month or $499.75 a month on annual billing, with unlimited users. Annual contracts are billed upfront in one invoice.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">How much does SimplyWise cost?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">SimplyWise Cost Estimator is $29.99 a month. On the annual plan it is $239.99 a year, about $20\/mo. There is a 7-day free trial, and one subscription opens every app in the SimplyWise suite.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">Does Contractor+ do photo estimating?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">Yes. Their Estimatic page says you can upload jobsite photos, blueprints and drawings when you create an estimate, and their FAQ says a complete draft comes back in a couple minutes. It is listed from the PRO plan up, metered at 10 credits a month, and unmetered on PRO TEAM. SimplyWise takes the photo as the primary input and returns an itemized estimate in about 6 seconds, on every plan.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">Can I measure a room with my phone instead of a tape?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">In SimplyWise, yes, on a Pro iPhone. The room scan reads the LiDAR sensor and drops the dimensions into the estimate. Contractor+ takes typed measurements or an uploaded EagleView or Hover report. A phone scan is not listed on their site.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">Which one is right for a solo contractor?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">SimplyWise, in most cases. Contractor+ has a free plan, but it caps you at 5 estimates or invoices a month and does not list Estimatic. The moment you price more than five jobs, you are on PRO at $29 a month on annual billing with a 10 credit meter on the photo estimator. SimplyWise is $29.99 a month, every feature on, no meter.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:1px;background:#e2e8f0\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#0f172a;margin-bottom:6px\">Does either one handle change orders?<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:15px;color:#475569;line-height:1.65\">Contractor+ lists change orders and living invoices on its App Store page. SimplyWise does not have a change order feature yet. The workaround is duplicating the estimate and resending it. That is a real gap. It is the honest reason some contractors run both.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section style=\"padding:96px 120px;background:#0f172a;text-align:center;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%\">\n<h2 style=\"font-size:48px;font-weight:800;color:#fff;line-height:1.15;letter-spacing:-0.02em;margin:0 0 16px 0\">See it on your next estimate<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-size:19px;color:#cbd5e1;margin:0 auto 32px auto;max-width:640px\">Start a free 7-day SimplyWise trial.
