Description

PLEXXIS is a subcontractor solution uniting project management, accounting, estimating, takeoff and mobile apps on a single tech stack. Plexxis also provides 100% in-house implementation and support services and PLAIN LANGUAGE agreements that PROTECT SUBCONTRACTORS FROM; 1) UNFAIR SUBSCRIPTIONS: Lack of transparency of total cost to onboard, and/or misrepresentation of products and services while failing to provide fair options for cancellation. 2) CLOUD CUFFING: When software vendors charge license or subscription fees BEFORE the client is LIVE while also keeping client data hostage in order to extort additional payments. 3) SMOKE STACKING: When software vendors oversell the level of integration of products in a tech stack. 4) OVERAGES: When software vendor provides just service rates and non-committal plan or suggested cost to onboard in a way that sets the client up for change orders
