Calconic alternative for service businesses
Calconic is a drag-and-drop builder for any kind of calculator: loan, shipping, product or service. You add the fields and write the formula. Quotewise only does quote forms for service businesses, so you start from a trade template with the questions and typical prices already in, and every request comes to you by email.

When Calconic is the better pick
- You need a calculator that isn't a quote, like a loan or savings calculator.
- You want the lowest monthly price and don't mind building the formula yourself.
- You want customers to pay by PayPal straight from the calculator.
When Quotewise fits better
- You run a cleaning, lawn, moving, painting or similar business and want to start from prices that already make sense.
- You want every request emailed to you with the customer's answers, including on the free plan.
- You'd rather not count impressions: the free plan limits requests, not views.

Questions
- Is Calconic free?
- Calconic has a free plan with 5 calculators and 500 impressions a month. Email notifications, order forms and PayPal are on its paid plans, which start at $5 a month billed yearly.
- Do I have to write formulas in Quotewise?
- No. Each question has a price or a percentage next to each answer, and the total adds up from those. Templates come with typical prices for the trade that you can change.
- Can I move a Calconic calculator to Quotewise?
- There's no import, but most quote forms take a few minutes to rebuild. Describe your business or paste your website address and the first version is built for you.
