About
SumoQuote is a powerful sales and quoting tool designed specifically for roofing contractors and construction professionals. It enables sales teams to build stunning, branded quotes in minutes rather than hours, giving businesses a competitive edge in winning new jobs. The platform allows contractors to add their logo and brand colors to generate professional cover pages, attach inspection photos directly to quotes, and integrate their pricelist for fast, accurate estimates. Customers can review and sign quotes digitally from anywhere using built-in eSigning capabilities, and financing options can be offered to budget-sensitive clients right within the quote. SumoQuote integrates seamlessly with popular CRMs and other industry tools, making it easy to standardize the quoting process across entire sales teams — including new hires. The platform's consistency-focused design ensures every quote reflects the company's professionalism, regardless of who creates it. Key outcomes reported by users include an average of $2,078 in additional upgrades sold per signed quote, a 64% average increase in competitive close rates, and same-day quote delivery. The tool is designed so that just one closed job can pay off an entire year's subscription. Now acquired by JobNimbus, SumoQuote is part of a broader ecosystem providing contractors with an end-to-end solution for managing and accelerating their sales pipeline. It's ideal for roofing companies, restoration contractors, and solar installers looking to professionalize and scale their sales operations.
