Default Quotation Software

I'm trying to find quotation software. I have looked at other business software, but they are all very expensive and I'm already using QuickBooks which is perfect for my needs.

Do you know of any software that will only do quotes, that is affordable, around the $100 mark, for our industry? I would need all the different vendor product codes built in like Fast manager and t-quoter has.

Without the product codes and ability to price embroidery and screen printing, I could just stick to QuickBooks.

I spend most of my day doing quotations. Any help please???

Check out EstiMate. They are offering it for free with one plugin. I was pretty skeptical, but I was played with it last night with the RTA decal plugin and its pretty damn sweet. Additional plugins are $99.

Not sure what you mean by vendor product codes, but the RTA plugin has standard vinyls built in, and you plugin what you pay for a roll/yard, etc. The screenprinting plugin has a bunch of different shirts built in, based on the screenshot on their site.

I looked at it and it is not good. I think it will work well if you do mostly signs. I need software that has all the prices for Alpha, Broder, Sanmar and other vendors already in the software. I also need more flexibility to price my embroidery. They are very limited.
I liked the way Fast manager priced and I saw a video on how they can check stock with alpha, but it is expensive. Would like something like fast manager without all the accounting.

any ideas
