EagleView Alternative for Roofers

Looking for an EagleView alternative?

EagleView sells expertly produced aerial measurement reports. QuoteCore+ is quoting software where you measure your own plans — PDF takeoff, AI Scan Assist, automatic materials and pricing — and own the whole estimate. Different tools for different jobs.

Need another aerial measurement provider? QuoteCore+ isn't one. Already have plans or usable imagery and want to stop paying per report? That's where QuoteCore+ fits.

Browser-based, nothing to install. 14-day free trial, no credit card.

Can QuoteCore+ replace EagleView?

Not as an aerial provider

No for aerial reports; yes for measuring suitable plans or images yourself and carrying the result through to a quote.

QuoteCore+ is not a replacement for EagleView's aerial imagery or property-intelligence reports. It is an alternative when the job already has a PDF plan, drawing, or usable image and you want to own the takeoff instead of paying for a report. You measure or run AI Scan Assist, verify the geometry, and let Smart Components apply materials, waste, labour and pricing before the quote goes out. If the roof is unsafe to access or the customer needs an address-based report before a site visit, EagleView remains the better fit.

  • Own the plan-based takeoff

    Upload plans or images, measure roofing geometry yourself, and correct the result before pricing it.

  • Turn measurement into a quote

    Smart Components apply materials, waste, labour and margins; the same data continues to order and invoice.

  • Avoid a report fee where plans exist

    QuoteCore+ plans run from free to $59/mo with no per-report charge.

  • Aerial imagery and property intelligence

    EagleView's core strength. QuoteCore+ does not provide flown reports, solar data, wall data or property intelligence.

  • Remote or unsafe properties

    When you cannot access the roof or need a measurement before visiting, an EagleView report may be exactly what you need.

The short answer

EagleView is a reports business: you pay per report ($32.75–$89.50 for construction reports at list price, with volume tiers) and receive a professionally measured roof report. QuoteCore+ does not generate aerial reports — it's estimating software where you measure your own PDF plans or images (AI Scan Assist speeds this up), and Smart Components turn every measurement into materials, labour, waste and a priced quote. If you want externally flown measurements, EagleView does that well. If you want to stop paying per roof and run measure-to-quote yourself, that's what QuoteCore+ is built for. Some businesses use both.

Reports vs owning the workflow

Two different ways to get from "customer calls" to "quote sent".

01

Get the roof measurements

EagleView: place a report order for the address and receive a measured report — construction reports list from $32.75 to $89.50 depending on size and tier. QuoteCore+: upload the PDF plan or image, run AI Scan Assist to detect areas, ridges, hips, valleys, barges and spouting, verify and adjust. You hold the measurement, not a per-report invoice.

02

Turn measurements into materials

EagleView: reports include measurement detail you can price from — typically in a spreadsheet or estimating tool. QuoteCore+: measurements flow straight into Smart Components, which apply stored materials, coverage, pack sizes, waste and labour automatically.

03

Send the quote

EagleView: the report is the deliverable — quoting typically continues in your own tools. QuoteCore+: a branded quote goes to the customer with accept/decline tracking, then converts to a material order and invoice when approved.

04

Next job, and every job after

EagleView: each new property is a new report order. QuoteCore+: your components and pricing rules carry over — every roof after the first quotes faster, at no extra per-roof cost.

EagleView vs QuoteCore+ pricing

Which one fits your business?

An honest starting point — both tools are good at what they do.

Choose EagleView if…

  • You want a measured report without visiting the site

    EagleView flies and measures the property, delivering a report you can quote from — no ladder, no site visit needed.

  • You quote high volume and value speed

    Ordering a report off an address can be faster than any takeoff when you're quoting many roofs a week.

  • You need property data beyond the roof

    EagleView's property-intelligence products cover walls, solar and gutters — a data business, not just a roof tool.

Choose QuoteCore+ if…

  • You want to stop paying per roof

    QuoteCore+ is a subscription from free to $59/mo — no per-report fees, no matter how many roofs you measure.

  • You already have the plans

    If the architect's PDF or your site photos exist, AI Scan Assist and digital takeoff turn them into measurements in minutes.

  • You want measurements that become quotes automatically

    Smart Components apply your materials, waste, labour and margins to every measurement — the takeoff prices itself.

  • You want one workflow, not report + spreadsheet

    Takeoff, quote, material order and invoice stay connected — the measurement isn't a PDF that dies in a folder.

From plan to quote, without ordering a report

See a PDF plan become a fully priced roofing quote in one workflow — the alternative to report-plus-spreadsheet.

When an EagleView report is the better choice

We're not going to pretend every roofer should drop aerial reports. Here's when EagleView genuinely wins:

You can't access the roof

Two-storey, steep, or unsafe roofs are exactly what flown measurement reports are for. Safety beats software.

You're quoting a property you can't visit yet

If the customer wants a number before you can get on site, an address-based report is the fastest honest route.

You need property data beyond roofing

EagleView's property intelligence spans walls, solar and gutters. QuoteCore+ doesn't do any of that — and won't pretend to.

Measure a roof yourself, free

Try the takeoff workflow that replaces per-report ordering. The free roof takeoff builder measures areas, ridges, hips and valleys from your plan — right in your browser, no account needed.

Common questions

How much do EagleView reports cost?

EagleView's official pricing (checked August 2026) lists construction reports from $32.75 (small roof) to $87.00 (large roof) at list price, gutter reports at $13.75, and Full House™ reports at $105. Volume tiers (Silver/Gold/Platinum) reduce per-report prices. See eagleview.com for current pricing.

Is QuoteCore+ cheaper than EagleView?

They use different models, so it depends on volume. EagleView charges per report ($13.75–$105 each). QuoteCore+ is a subscription from free to $59/month with no per-roof cost. At 5+ roofs a month, QuoteCore+ is usually significantly cheaper — but if you need aerial measurements you can't take yourself, a report may be worth paying for.

Does QuoteCore+ generate aerial measurement reports?

No — and we won't pretend otherwise. QuoteCore+ measures from plans and images you supply (with AI Scan Assist to speed up detection). If you need externally flown aerial reports, EagleView does that. Some contractors use both: reports for remote properties, QuoteCore+ for everything they can measure themselves.

Can I do takeoffs from PDF plans instead of ordering reports?

Yes — that's exactly what QuoteCore+ is built for. Upload the architect's PDF or your own photos, calibrate scale, measure or AI-scan the roof geometry, and the measurements flow straight into priced quotes. The free roof takeoff builder lets you try the workflow with no account.

Does QuoteCore+ calculate material quantities like a report does?

Yes, and further — Smart Components convert each measurement into material quantities with waste, labour and your pricing rules applied, producing a customer-ready quote rather than just a measurement document.
