Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about IntelliQuote with their answers.
IntelliQuote was written by a computer programmer with more than 25 years of experience writing programs for the precision metal fabrication industry. IntelliQuote will especially fill the needs of the person who has to submit accurate quotes to customers in this industry. However, since there are many professionals in a variety of fields desiring a way to quickly produce accurate cost estimates, IntelliQuote has been designed to be completely customizable. Now, carpenters, plumbers, painters, and even florists can use IntelliQuote to submit their requests for price quotations.
Certainly not!. Although it appears very compact in size, it has many levels of menus each with many options. It is designed around a unique user interface that does not unnecessarily clutter your computer screen. Shortly after using this program you will appreciate the power hidden inside its small form. IntelliQuote is a good testimony to the fact that sometimes "big things come in small packages".
When a potential customer receives the quote report created automatically by IntelliQuote, they immediately appreciate the effort that has gone into giving them a price quotation.

Since all quotes are saved, you can easily find old quotes when your customer asks for a re-quote. If the new quote only involves changing the quantity of parts desired, you can generate a new quote in a matter of seconds.
