One day with OnsiteBoard

Five things you already do. Less typing in each of them.

  1. Book.

    Customers pick a day and a window on your booking link. Or paste their text, "Door won't open, I heard a loud bang…": name, phone, address and the problem fill in. Either way it lands in the app, and you confirm the booking.

  2. Drive.

    Tap On my way. The status changes, a text to the customer opens with your message already written, and navigation opens to the address.

  3. Do the work.

    Photograph the label on the opener and the brand, model and serial are read for you. Tap Draft: service lines are proposed from your notes, priced from your list. Springs go on as a pair, $325 for torsion.

  4. Sign.

    Hand over the phone. The total sits above the pad, so the customer signs for a number they've seen. Or text the estimate with a deposit to start, and they approve it from the couch.

  5. Get paid.

    Send the invoice by text or email, with your license number on it. The customer pays by card from the link, tip included, and Stripe sends it to your bank. Cash or check? Record it on the job. Card payments run through Stripe; its standard fees apply.

Springs as a pair. The opener's label, read from a photo.

Two things a garage door invoice gets asked about: what was replaced, and on which opener. Both go on the line without retyping.

  1. Quote springs as a pair.

    Torsion springs replacement (pair) starts at $325 on your list, extension springs (pair) at $225. One line, one price, and the customer can see it covers both springs.

  2. Photograph the opener label.

    On the motor unit on the ceiling. The brand and drive type fill the Opener line, "Opener: Belt drive opener", with the model number and serial below it, on your Opener diagnostic and repair line at $125. The Door line is yours to fill in; check the reading before you save.

  3. Send it.

    The invoice shows the door, the opener, its model and serial under each line, your license number at the top, and a link the customer pays from by card. Card payments run through Stripe; its standard fees apply.

Reading a label needs a connection.

An opener label read into a service line, and your price list with springs quoted as a pair.

A Book Online button for your website.

Every account comes with its own booking page. Put the link behind a button on your website, your Google Business Profile, Facebook, Nextdoor or Yelp, and customers send a booking request for a window you're free; you confirm it with one tap.

  • Your windows. The page offers the arrival windows you set in Settings, and nothing else.
  • Only times you're really free. The page reads your schedule, including jobs you put in by hand, so a customer can't book on top of work you already have.
  • Notice you control. Set the earliest day in Settings: one day means a full 24 hours from the moment they book.
  • It lands in the app for you to confirm. Name, phone, address and what's wrong, in the arrival window they picked, with an alert on your phone. Tap Confirm booking and the customer gets their confirmation email.
  • Written for your trade. The example in the "What needs fixing?" box follows the trade you picked: "e.g. door won't close, one spring looks broken".
  • One window, one request. Two people on the page at once can't both take the same window.

The customer's booking page in Safari: fields for name, phone, email, address and what needs fixing, with the example "door won't close, one spring looks broken", and open arrival windows for the next days.

Two small things you'll use every day.

An incoming call on an iPhone showing the customer's name, Jennifer Walsh, under the number, identified by OnsiteBoard.

Know who's calling.

Your customers' names show on incoming calls, even when they're not in your contacts. Pick up knowing it's a customer, not a spam call. iPhone only.

New customer: a pasted text saying the door won't open after a loud bang and one spring looks broken, the Fill in from message button, and what it filled in: Karen Mills, her phone, address and the note "Spring — garage door won't open, broken spring. Prefers today."

A text becomes the customer.

Paste the message and tap Fill in from message. "Door won't close and one spring looks broken…" becomes the customer's name, phone and address, with the problem in the notes, written up the way a garage door tech would. Check it, save, add the job.

Same account. Bigger screen.

The browser dashboard is for the evening at the desk: the week, the quotes, and who still owes you.

  • Today at a glance. What's on today, what came in this week, what's outstanding.
  • The week as a grid. Your time windows down the side, days across. An empty cell is a free window.
  • The day's route. The stops in order, the drive between each pair in miles and minutes, and a map, all estimated from the addresses on the jobs. Hand the whole run to Google Maps in one click.
  • Needs attention. Unpaid invoices by age, jobs waiting on a part, and payments and bookings as they come in.

Nothing to install. Same sign-in as the phone. Book jobs, edit customers, send invoices, run reports and export CSV, with a keyboard.

Bring your customers and jobs with you.

Export a customer list or a job history from your old app or spreadsheet, as .xlsx or CSV, and pick it in Customers. A job history comes in too: each past job with its total and payment, so your work history and revenue reports are there from day one. OnsiteBoard works out which kind of file it is and shows you what it found before anything is imported.

It's built not to double anyone up. Every row is matched against the customers you already have — by phone number first, then by name and address. A match only gets its blank details filled in, nothing you typed is overwritten, and a repeat is skipped. Run the same file twice and you get the same customers, not two of each. Everything exports back out any time.

Questions garage door techs ask

Why are springs priced as a pair?
Replace one of two worn springs and the other one is often next. So the starting list prices them as a pair: torsion springs replacement (pair) at $325 and extension springs replacement (pair) at $225. They're starting prices; change them in Settings, or add a single-spring line if you sell one.
Can it read the opener label?
Yes. Photograph the label on the opener's motor unit and the assistant reads the brand, the drive type, the model number and the serial. The brand and drive type go on the Opener line, "Opener: Belt drive opener", with the model and serial below, on your Opener diagnostic and repair line. The Door line is yours to fill in. Look it over before you save. Reading a photo needs a connection.
Are the service prices set for me?
They're a starting point. You get sixteen common garage door services, from an $89 service call and a $99 tune-up to springs as a pair, lift cables, rollers, an off-track reset, a $595 belt-drive opener install and garage door labor at $95/hr, each with a typical price. Change the names, prices and descriptions in Settings, add your own, or delete what you don't do.
Where does my license number go?
Enter it once in Settings, under Business info, in the License # field. It prints on every estimate and invoice, next to your company name and phone.
Can I charge by the hour?
Yes. Turn on Charge by the hour on any service line and enter the hours and your rate; the line total is worked out to the cent as you type. The hours show under the line on the invoice. The garage door labor service in your list starts at $95/hr; change the rate in Settings.
Can I take a deposit before I start?
Yes, on any estimate, say a new opener or a door panel: 10% of the total, more where your state allows, or any amount. Record it as cash or check, or the customer pays it by card from the estimate link. When the estimate becomes the invoice, the deposit already counts as paid and the customer sees the balance. Some states limit deposits on home improvement work: in California, 10% of the price or $1,000, whichever is less. Check your state's rules before you set one. Card payments run through Stripe; its standard fees apply.
Does it work for other trades?
Yes. You pick your trade when you sign up: appliance repair, auto detailing, boat service, dryer vent cleaning, electrician, garage doors, gutters, handyman, house cleaning, HVAC, irrigation / sprinklers, lawn care, locksmith, pest control, pet waste removal, plumbing, pool service, pressure washing and window cleaning are supported. It sets your starting service list and how the assistant reads customer messages and drafts services. You can change it later in Settings; a service list you've edited stays unless you choose to replace it.
Do I need a card reader?
No. The customer pays from the invoice link, on their own phone or computer, on a Stripe-hosted card form. You never handle the card. Stripe's standard card processing fee applies; OnsiteBoard doesn't add a fee of its own.
Does it work offline?
In the phone app, partly. With no signal you can open your jobs, add a job and change its time; it syncs when you're back in signal. A job's services and parts open with a signal the first time; after that you can change them, and record a cash or check payment on its invoice, without one. The customer's signature, job photos, sending an estimate or invoice, card payments, the assistant (reading a message or an opener label, drafting services), the map and Street View need a connection, and so does the browser dashboard.
Can I import my customers?
Yes, from a spreadsheet (.xlsx) or a CSV file — export one from your old app and pick it in Customers. OnsiteBoard works out whether the file is a customer list or a job history and tells you what it found before anything is imported. Names, phones, emails and addresses come in. Rows are matched to customers you already have by phone, then by name and address: a match gets its blank fields filled in and nothing overwritten, a repeat is skipped — so importing the same file twice doesn't double anyone.
What about Android?
The Android app is on Google Play, with the same account as the iPhone app and the browser dashboard. One difference: Caller ID is an iPhone feature.
Can my customer pay without an account?
Yes. The invoice link opens in their browser — no app, no sign-up. They sign, add a tip if they want, and pay by card.
What happens after the trial?
Nothing is charged when the trial ends: there is no card on file. You pick monthly or yearly in the app. If you don't, nothing is deleted: your jobs, customers and invoices stay viewable and exportable. Creating new work and sending documents by email from OnsiteBoard need a plan.
Is my data mine? Can I export it?
Yes. Export your customers and your payments as CSV, save or print any estimate or invoice as a PDF, and delete your account from Settings whenever you want.
Do you track my location?
No. The app never asks for it. Drive times on the route are estimated from the addresses on your jobs, and "On my way" and "Arrived" are times you tap yourself.
Can it draft my invoice?
Tap Draft on a job and OnsiteBoard proposes the service lines from the job's notes and your own service templates, each written up as Door, Opener, Model Number, Problem and Service. Prices come only from your templates. You look it over, change anything, and save.
A customer texted me instead of booking. Do I retype it?
No. Copy the text, open a new customer or job, paste. "Door won't close and one spring looks broken…" fills in the name, phone, address and the problem, the way you'd write it down yourself. Check it and save.
