The Bottom Line

QuoteIQ is an impressive, low-priced all-in-one CRM that does target hood-vent cleaning — with tiered estimates, chemical inventory, pipelines, and marketing automation, all from $29.99/mo. It produces NFPA 96 compliance documents through custom forms and photo capture. Where HoodOps separates is the compliance engine and the proof: an auto-generated, standards-grounded NFPA 96 certificate, cleaning frequency derived from cooking type per NFPA 96, structured grease-depth logging against the threshold, and EvidLY tamper-evident records. Plus unlimited users on every plan, not just the top tier.
