The Coffee Shops welcome Dataforma!

Cutting-edge, all-in-one business management software designed for commercial contractors and other trade professionals.

The Coffee Shops, the award-winning online communities where the industries meet for technologies, safety, information and education for the construction trades of roofing, metal and coatings, are pleased to welcome Dataforma into their community.

In the world of the construction and trades industries, managing a business is a complex process that consists of juggling a stream of leads, service requests, bids, documents, invoices, reports and more. Founded over two decades ago, Dataforma is a software service built by contractors, for contractors to help with this. Their goal is to help commercial contractors track and manage their business so that they can find success, no matter how many employees they have or which specific industry they operate within.

Dataforma’s innovative software utilizes cloud-based features. This means that wherever you are, in the office or the field, you can keep your scheduling, reporting, payroll, invoicing and other business needs on track. And Dataforma is not just a way to manage and see data, it’s a way to enhance the productivity of your business. Here are three main ways Dataforma’s software goes beyond data management:

1. Productivity: This software is transforming how much work contractors and field service companies can accomplish in a given day. With better scheduling, reporting, invoicing, mobile apps and seamless updating, a business equipped with Dataforma can go from barely completing tasks to achieving instant success.
2. Communication: Dataforma’s web and mobile applications allow your office staff to instantly communicate between the field and office staff. Jobs are assigned from project/service managers to field technicians and field technicians can use their mobile devices to transmit photos, work descriptions, safety/job reports and even labor instantaneously. Dataforma’s software includes a customer portal that creates a smooth flow of communication between you and your customers. You can send and share files on-demand as well as reminders, notes and feedback for each customer interaction.
3. Financials: With an intuitive interface, a dashboard packed with analytics and data, plus a centralized database of all your customers’ information, there’s no need to spend hours searching for data or chasing down paperwork. It also allows you to have better control over invoices — and get paid faster.

The Coffee Shops are proud to welcome Dataforma into their community!
