Zuper vs stack 1

We are Now Recommending Zuper to all our Roofers. Learn what led to our decision.

Roofers deserve tools that serve them—not the other way around. When SumoQuote changed course and began disadvantaging contractors who chose not to run on JobNimbus, we started looking for an alternative that would protect our customers’ freedom to choose. We even invested roughly $50,000 building our own configure‑price‑quote solution to bridge the gap, because doing right by our clients matters more than convenience.

After years of evaluation, we selected Zuper because they built a full SumoQuote replacement into their platform.

Which lets us consolidate three separate tools into one, reduce logins, and speed up proposal‑to‑production. Zuper is not a CRM, and we will keep treating your CRM as the source of truth for pipeline, reporting, and marketing while Zuper handles quoting, field operations, and service workflows. This keeps the stack simple where it should be and powerful where it must be.

The result is faster proposals, clearer job costing, and fewer points of failure—without forcing you into a system you didn’t choose.

We will migrate thoughtfully and in phases to avoid disrupting what already works, because saving a few dollars is never worth risking hundreds of thousands in revenue.

Our standard is stewardship: fewer vendors, better data, and a workflow your team can trust on busy roofing days. Zuper is the best fit for that standard today, and it positions our customers to compete harder and grow with confidence.

Too Many Tools? Or Too Few?
Most roofing companies reach a crossroads as they grow.

On one side are “tool stacks” — SumoQuote for proposals, CompanyCam for photos, and Arrivy for scheduling. Each one is powerful on its own, but together they create a maze of logins, data sync issues, and gaps between sales and operations.

On the other side are “all-in-one platforms” like Zuper — simpler, more connected, but not as deeply specialized in each function.

The real challenge for roofers is finding the balance:

❌Too many tools, and your team wastes hours keeping them connected.
❌Too few, and you sacrifice the specialized features your sales or field teams rely on.

This guide breaks down how Zuper vs. SumoQuote + CompanyCam + Arrivy stack compare when it comes to running a modern roofing business.

Migrating to Zuper

Why roofers choose this path:

Roofing companies that feel stretched between four or five logins often consolidate into Zuper to simplify operations and get better visibility between sales, scheduling, and field work.

What the migration involves:

  • Data consolidation: Import customer records, quotes, and active jobs from HubSpot, SumoQuote, and Arrivy into one Zuper instance.
  • Workflow mapping: Translate your existing deal stages and scheduling triggers into Zuper’s built-in CRM and job modules.
  • Integration setup: Optional light HubSpot integration for lead capture and reporting continuity.
  • Team rollout: Train office and field users on one mobile-first platform instead of four.

What you’ll gain:

  • ✅ One dashboard for sales, dispatch, and crew performance.
  • ✅ Real-time job status and time-tracking in the same place.
  • ✅ Faster onboarding for new team members.
  • ✅ Fewer integration points to maintain.

What to watch for:

  • Less quoting customization than SumoQuote’s visual templates.
  • Possible need to rebuild some HubSpot automations directly in Zuper.

Migrating to a Stack

Why roofers choose this path:

Teams that want deeper sales and marketing automation — or roofing-specific quoting and photo tools — sometimes migrate from Zuper to a connected HubSpot + SumoQuote + CompanyCam + Arrivy setup.

What the migration involves:

  • Data export: Pull customers, quotes, and work orders from Zuper to import into HubSpot CRM and SumoQuote.
  • Integration network: Connect HubSpot with SumoQuote (quotes), CompanyCam (photos), and Arrivy (scheduling) via API or Zapier.
  • Field hand-off: Sync job updates from Arrivy or CompanyCam back to HubSpot for real-time visibility.
  • Automation design: Build HubSpot workflows for sales, reminders, and follow-ups that Zuper handled natively.

What you’ll gain:

  • Best-in-class functionality for each step of the customer journey.
  • Highly customizable automation and reporting through HubSpot.
  • More vendor flexibility as your business scales.

What to watch for:

  • Requires coordination between multiple vendors or a marketing partner to maintain integrations.
  • Separate user training for each app.
  • Higher overall subscription and maintenance cost.

Which Delivers More Value for Roofers?

It’s not just about cost — it’s about lead conversion, team efficiency, and growth.

When comparing platforms, roofing companies often focus on subscription costs — but that’s only half the equation. The real question is: how much time and margin does each system give back to your business?

Real-World Takeaway

  • Smaller Roofing Businesses (<$3M revenue) often see faster ROI with Zuper, because the simplicity and unified workflows eliminate overhead and confusion.
  • Mid-Market Roofers ($3–$5M) can benefit from integrating Zuper with Hubspot — for efficiency and more marketing power.
  • Large Multi-Crew Companies ($5M+) should choose Zuper combined with Hubspot, especially if they already have internal staff managing CRM and automation.
Bottom Line:

✅ Zuper wins on operational simplicity and cost efficiency.

✅ The Stack wins on granular customization and potential savings when burdened with large operational teams that only need certain feature sets.

The best ROI comes from matching your platform to your stage of growth.
