Frequently asked questions
Can Ascora handle painting quotes that cover surface prep, materials and labour?
Yes. You can build detailed painting estimates that break down surface prep, paint and materials, and labour, then convert the accepted quote straight into an invoice without re-entering anything.
Can Ascora manage multi-phase drywall and painting projects with progress claims?
Yes. You can split a parent project into stages, schedule crews across each phase, and raise progress claims and retentions as the work moves from drywall and prep through to the final coats.
Does the mobile app work on site if there is no signal?
Yes. The Ascora app for iOS and Android works fully offline, so your painters can update jobs, capture before-and-after photos and record progress on any site and it syncs automatically once back in range.
How much does Ascora cost and does it integrate with my accounting software?
Pricing starts from $29 per user per month with a 14-day free trial, no lock-in contract and free data migration, and it integrates with Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks Online so invoices and payments flow through without double entry.
