A job in ORYX Console: its progress bar from To schedule to Invoiced, the visits placed on employees with their hours, and the cost lines with their subtotal.

Your day

The season is short. The paperwork isn't.

Five roofers on a roof, rain in the forecast for Thursday, and the phone ringing about a leak. Everyone's hours on the hood of the truck, the end-of-job photos spread across three phones, and the quote you promised Monday still sitting on the corner of the desk.

Today screen in the ORYX Console iPhone app: the running shift timer, the large red Punch out button, and the day's jobs underneath.

What ORYX changes

What ORYX doesn’t do

What ORYX doesn't do for a roofer

No CCQ payroll, no roof take-offs from plans, no price book per square of shingles. You enter your own lines, quantities and prices. For CCQ payroll or take-offs, keep a specialized tool: ORYX exports the hours to Excel or CSV.

Questions we get asked

No. A service call goes in as a request, with the client, the address and the on-site contact, and the main button is Create job: the quote is for the re-roof you need to price.

Every Punch in is tied to its job, and Timesheets shows one row per employee. You approve the week, then export payroll to Excel or CSV, regular and overtime hours separated.

Yes. You start with the new jobs, the old ones finish in your old system; your clients come over from an Acomba, Sage 50 or Excel file, and the 30 minutes of setup are included during the trial.
