Do these challenges sound familiar?

1
Incorrect measurements or missed details (sills, mosquito nets, opening type) leading to costly rework.
2
Installers arriving late or at the wrong address — poor routing and schedules causing downtime and unhappy clients.
3
Extra work not billed: dismantling old frames, debris removal, finishing slopes — profits lost on uncharged tasks.
4
Job reports created manually — slow, error-prone, and time-consuming.
5
Complaints about installation quality or cleanliness, with no photo proof to resolve disputes.

Planado eliminates these issues — helping your window & door business run smoother

Streamline Your Scheduling

Planado makes task management effortless, giving you full control in just a few clicks:

  • Employee schedules with live updates — instantly see who’s available, on-site, or wrapping up a job.
  • Smart planner for tasks & shifts — automate assignments and balance workloads with ease.
  • Flexible job types & scenarios — from one-time installations to recurring maintenance.

Mobile app for workers

Your measuring and installation staff receive all planned work and changes via a mobile app, as well as notifications about new tasks.

After completing the work, the employee submits a detailed customizable report, including photos and other information. The report is automatically saved in the database and sent to the office.

Turnkey Planado Setup for Your Business

We’ll configure Planado for your processes absolutely free — templates, reports, notifications, and the mobile app. You’ll get a system that’s already working for your business: just log in and start using it.

Seamless Communication Between Field Staff and Office

Automate data flow between field teams and the office to keep every step accurate and transparent.

Installers get assignments with all details — including measurements from the first visit. Once the job is done, the final report syncs instantly to the office and stays available anytime.

Raise Service Quality

When your technician starts a job, they receive a detailed checklist to ensure every step is completed properly.

After finishing, they fill out a customizable report with photos, comments, and other required fields. All reports are securely stored in the system — providing full documentation that can be used later, for example, during a warranty visit.

Track Materials, Work, and Sales

Installers log all used parts, sold items, and services right in the mobile app. Data is auto-calculated, added to reports, and instantly synced to the office — giving you full visibility and accountability.

Keep Customers in the Loop

Send automated SMS updates with technician ETAs and job details. After the job, clients get a quick feedback request — boosting satisfaction, resolving issues faster, and driving repeat business.
