The math doesn't lie.
Window Cleaners deal with unique challenges that generic software was not built for: Scheduling recurring cleans (quarterly, biannual) across hundreds of clients. Quoting window counts sight-unseen from phone calls. Rain cancellations cascading through the week. Tracking which homes are due for their next clean. Housecall Pro charges $99/month on top of these daily realities. The median window cleaner earns $35,000/year — $1,188/year in software subscriptions is a significant percentage of that income, paid every year, forever.
Nexa is $279 once. Invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, accounting — all connected, built for window cleaners. You own it like you own your Squeegees (multiple sizes, Ettore/Unger).
You clean 6-8 houses today. Mrs. Johnson's quarterly clean was supposed to be last week but it rained. Your 2pm cancelled because they forgot you were coming. You're trying to remember if the house on Oak Street has 24 or 28 windows for your quote callback tonight. By the end of the week you've cleaned 30 homes and half of them paid cash with no receipt trail.

For solo window cleaners and small teams, yes. invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting — all for $279 once. Housecall Pro may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.
Housecall Pro has features like Online booking for home services and GPS tracking that some businesses rely on. For most solo window cleaners, these aren't dealbreakers.
At $99/month, Nexa pays for itself in 2.8 months. After that: $1,188 saved every year.
Yes. Nexa is $279 as a one-time payment, or 3 payments of $99 ($297 total). Either way it's a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring fees ever.
