Midrung vs Spreadsheets

Most small job shops start with spreadsheets. They work — until they don't. Quotes live in one file, job status on a whiteboard, customer info in email threads, and margins are a guess until the invoice goes out.

The pain points you know too well

• Quoting takes forever because you're building each one from scratch
• No visibility into job status without walking the floor
• Margins are a surprise — you find out if you made money after the fact
• Data lives in 5 different places and none of them agree
• Version control is "which file is the latest?"
• New employees can't find anything without asking someone

How Midrung solves this

• Build quotes with saved routings and materials — minutes, not hours
• See every job's status, operation, and timeline from one screen
• Know your margin before you send the quote, not after you invoice
• One source of truth for customers, parts, jobs, and invoices
• Full audit trail — who changed what, when
• Self-explanatory interface — new hires are productive on day one

The bottom line

Spreadsheets got you here. They won't get you further. The day you lose a job because you quoted from last year's material prices, or miss a delivery because the job status was on someone's whiteboard — that's the day you know it's time.
