Now we have full transparency. We know what every tech has, what’s moving, and what needs to be replenished. It’s organized, it’s efficient, and it actually works.

Signed up with Ply about a month ago. They made onboarding easy. We have had someone to speak with every step of the way and it has been so helpful having an actual person that understands our needs on our side!

What is so great about Ply that I loved so much and that I brag about all the time is that they are so personal and so close in communication that you can always reach out with questions.

Very excited about finding Ply! Our billing system has been a challenge with every tech calling the same part by different names. Now we’ll be able to bill on the spot, spend less time billing large projects, and solve several problems in one app!

My wife and I own A&B Plumbing in North Carolina. We have been testing and using Ply with HCP integration for about a year. After multiple printers tested and over 1000 barcodes printed, I can now tell you exactly where that fitting is, no matter which location it’s at.
