Floor Covering Soft to launch FloorEstimate Pro 2010 edition on January 24

 

January 12, 2010 (Pasadena, CA) - Floor Covering Soft will launch the FloorEstimate Pro 2010 edition (FEP2010), the next generation flooring layout and estimating program for commercial and retail flooring contractors and dealers, on Jan 24.

 

FloorEstimate Pro 2010 stands out from competing products due to its versatility as a web-based enterprise estimating application that can be collaboratively worked on, edited, and updated from any location, allowing everyone involved to share and be notified of the most current information.

 

Here are some examples of how it works:

 

Major chain store contractors: "Technological advantage is always important, especially during these tough times. Well-established companies are taking this time to deploy software solutions to streamline takeoff estimating. We have helped a major contractor of a nationwide chain by automating their daily measure estimating quotes to more than 200 stores in 2009”, said Dr. Steven Wang, PhD, chief developer and founder of Floor Covering Soft.

 

Multi-family: “We have trained and deployed it to our regional state offices nationwide in 2009, and have found this centralized enterprise-level estimating solution extremely helpful in managing estimates and diagrams of our cross-state, multi-family flooring operations, especially over the web”, said Brian Caress, Vice President of Redi Carpet.

 

Commercial: “We deployed FloorEstimate Pro in all our branches in 2009 to capitalize on our long term relationship with Floor Covering Soft for its commercial estimating solution at the enterprise level”, said Bill Koch, chief estimator at the Palm Beach branch of Acousti Engineering, a flooring contractor with 18 offices in Florida, North Carolina, and Georgia.

 

Mobile Solutions: FEP2010 has enhanced its onsite measuring features and integration with Disto Laser meters. In addition, floor and sub-floor conditions can be reported with an estimate. It also interfaces with QuickBooks, so transferring estimates to QuickBooks can be done with a single click.

 

Floor Covering Soft has been focusing on both making the estimating software easier to use and smoothing its integration with users existing IT solutions. The new program can be purchased on demand with a monthly subscription. Getting started is simple. As Dr. Wang remarked, “The FEP2010 Retail Edition starts at $49/mo, so there is no big upfront investment.”

Special show prices, live tutorials, and free trial software CDs will be available at Booth G2426 during Surfaces 2010. For additional information, contact Dr. Steven Wang at Floor Covering Soft, Tel. 626-683-9188 and visit http://www.FloorCoveringSoft.com
