Florida has no state income tax. Every dollar you save on software stays in your pocket. The $405 annual savings from switching to Nexa is real money — not reduced by state taxes.
Whether you call it payment tracking, a platform for jobs, or a invoicing system — most beekeepers in Cape Coral patch together Square, QuickBooks, FreshBooks, Wave and similar apps. That's $684/year on recurring software. In half a decade at today's prices, that bill reaches $3,420.
Nexa lets you break free from monthly fees. Your CRM, payment tracking, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — unified in one platform. One tap books a client. One tap generates an invoice. No duplicate data entry. No Zapier. Zero integration overhead. It's a no subscription — save money immediately. For beekeepers in Cape Coral weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
He drives between apiary yards because the bees aren't all in one place, and each hive is on its own inspection clock he's trying to keep in his head. He lights the smoker, suits up, and cracks the first hive with the tool, pulling frames to check the brood pattern, whether the queen's laying, how the stores look, and crucially doing a mite count because varroa will crash a colony quietly if he misses the window. A weak hive gets a feeder, a strong one gets another box. His business isn't just honey: there's a grower who's contracted his hives for almond pollination on a date set by the bloom, an order for two nucs from a new beekeeper, queens he's rearing to sell, and beeswax he renders for candle makers. He logs the inspection in a notebook that's never with him when he needs it. A grower calls to lock pollination delivery and he flips through a calendar trying to remember which yards he promised. Come spring he won't know exactly how many hives survived winter until he opens them, which makes promising nucs and rentals a guess. Evening he's invoicing a pollination contract and a wax order with two different rate structures, and the mite-treatment supply receipts are in the truck.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a beekeeper's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a beekeeper — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
