FlashCrafterComparison · Auto Tinting
Tint-built software and general field-service CRMs, compared on invoicing, film workflow, QuickBooks sync, users and published prices (October 2026).
Owners of independent US auto-tint shops, including solo and mobile installers and small multi-bay shops, who want quoting, invoicing and payments in one system.
Every product on this page can send an invoice and take a card payment. What separates them for a tint shop is everything around the invoice: whether you can quote by vehicle and film tier, track film rolls, collect a deposit at booking and the balance at pickup, capture a warranty signature, and push the finished invoice into QuickBooks. Two products here are built for tint shops (Tint Wiz and TintPro). Urable, Suds and Shopmonkey are built for automotive work and cover tint to varying degrees. Jobber, Housecall Pro and QuoteIQ are general home-service CRMs with solid invoicing but no tint vocabulary.
Pricing spreads widely, from QuoteIQ at $29.99 a month for one user to Suds at $249 a month at its founders' price and Shopmonkey at $239 a month. Per-user fees matter in a shop with several installers: TintPro, Urable and Suds advertise unlimited users, while Jobber charges $29 a month per extra user, Housecall Pro $35 on Max, and Shopmonkey $20. Tint Wiz's app listings advertise unlimited staff accounts, but its pricing is not clear (see below).
Be aware of the evidence limits. No independent survey of US tint-shop owners exists, and most online comparison guides are written by software vendors; one ranks its own product first. Review scores for the tint-specific products are thin or absent: TintPro and Suds have no independent ratings, and Tint Wiz has app-store ratings only. The large review bases belong to Jobber and Housecall Pro, which are also the products with no tint-specific features. Treat the picks below as a starting shortlist, and confirm prices on each vendor's page before you sign up.
Shortlist
Best for tint shops that want a tint-specific CRM with documented QuickBooks Online sync and roll inventory.
Pricing Pricing is not disclosed in the latest capture of tintwiz.com. An earlier read of the site and QuoteIQ's guide list $150/month flat with unlimited users, a 30-day free trial and no contract, but that could not be confirmed in the latest capture. Confirm with the vendor before relying on it.

Method
Invoicing and payments: whether invoices, deposits and card payments are included, and on which plan.
Tint fit: whether the vendor documents vehicle-based quoting, film or roll inventory, and warranty or signature capture.
QuickBooks and integrations: which plan unlocks QuickBooks, and where vendor pages disagree.
Published pricing: plan prices from vendor pages captured between September 25 and October 5, 2026, with conflicts between sources noted.
Users and fees: users included, extra-user charges and known add-on or processing fees.
Independent ratings: review-site and app-store scores, with the platform and count shown; products with no verified rating are marked as such.
Verdict
No product here is clearly best for every tint shop. If you want software built around tint work, shortlist Tint Wiz and TintPro. If you mainly need dependable invoicing at a low price and can live without film tools, QuoteIQ or Jobber will do it. Housecall Pro has invoicing and a large Capterra base, but its Trustpilot reviews warrant a close read of billing and cancellation terms. Shopmonkey makes sense mainly if you also do repair work. Suds is the option for larger shops that want payroll and sales tools in one suite and accept a higher price.
