Bring your customers, jobs and invoices across from 12 rival systems
The reason people stay on software they dislike is the thought of moving. Gaffer imports customers, jobs, quotes, invoices and line items directly from twelve competitor systems — or from a CSV if you are coming off a spreadsheet — so switching is an afternoon, not a quarter.
Replaces a phone contacts list and someone's memory. Anyone in the office can pick up any call and know exactly what happened last time.

Every customer, every site, every job — one record.
Full history per customer with multiple sites, notes, tags, certificates and the complete timeline of quotes, jobs, invoices and messages. Import from your old software in one click.

Step 01 of the job: enquiry
A customer fills in your booking form at 9pm. Gaffer creates the lead, texts them back within seconds, tells you where the enquiry came from, and puts it in your pipeline before you have even seen it.
Import from your old software is one part of that step. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →

What does import from your old software replace?
For most trade businesses, a phone contacts list and someone's memory. Anyone in the office can pick up any call and know exactly what happened last time.
Does import from your old software work on a phone, and offline?
Yes. The mobile app is offline-first: records created on site are stored on the device and synced automatically, in order, when signal returns. Lofts, plant rooms and rural sites were the design brief.
Which plan is it on?
Every paid plan. Import from your old software is included for unlimited users at no extra cost — the monthly, annual and lifetime plans differ only in how you pay.
How long does it take to start using?
Minutes. Start a 14-day free trial with no card, pick your trades at sign-up, and import from your old software is switched on with your trade's templates already in place.
