Customer Reviews


Lee Reeves
Director of Inventory Management

"CQ enables us to review pricing but also multiple scenarios depending on the customer’s requirements such as inventory on hand for quick turnaround. We also use CQ for buying. The time between getting the quote and receiving the order is sometimes weeks which means pricing and inventory positions have changed. So when we receive a customer order, we use CQ again for pricing and material availability."

Raj Vora
Manufacturing Engineer

"Our experience so far with CalcuQuote has been fantastic, the customer service is amazing but most of all what you will get out of it is a quote managment system at very bare minimum. With their low cost, even if you don't use every single feature, if you just have quote management software that can manage it at the indivisual part number level, you will already start saving money in time instantly."

Scott Regnier
Process Engineer

"The onboarding process was remarkably smooth and fast. After just a few hours of training, we were able to complete and send out our first quote."

Matthew Lund
Account Manager

"BOM Health monitoring is extremely intuitive and quick to use. It allows for me to provide my customers with a detailed health report on their BOM with the latest information from the top distributors. The value that we receive from the BOM Health reports is unmatched!"
