What GlaziersEdge is

Estimating tools offer seven pricing methods and support custom product, labor, fabrication and edgework pricing. The software includes heavy glass and standard shower configurations with diagrams, as well as a product table of 2,500 common flat glass items. Work schedules can create calendar entries through MS Outlook or Google Calendars, and field staff can access job information on iPhone or Android smartphones.
