Improveit 360 vs. Leap: Which One Actually Fits Your Window & Door Installation Company?
These two aren't competing on features — they're built for different points on the growth curve. The right pick comes down to how many locations you run and where you sit relative to each platform's employee ceiling, not which one has a nicer tablet UI.
Improveit 360 ($400/mo, 5-150 employees) vs. Leap ($350/mo, 3-100 employees) — the $50/mo gap barely matters at 15 employees
Both cover in-home financed estimates — the right pick depends on how many locations you run and where you sit relative to each platform's employee ceiling.
Improveit 360 and Leap solve the same job — a rep needs to walk into a homeowner's living room, build a quote, and run a financing application before they leave — but they were built for different points on a dealer's growth curve. Leap is the leaner, mobile-first build for a single-location shop that wants a fast tablet workflow without Salesforce underneath it; Improveit 360 carries that Salesforce backbone specifically because larger, multi-location or franchise-style dealers want the reporting and admin control that comes with it, and they're willing to pay $50/mo more per account for it. At 15 employees, most shops sit squarely inside both platforms' supported ranges, which means the decision isn't really about price.
Where your shop sits on the growth curve — not raw headcount — is what actually separates these two.
Monthly price comparison
Improveit 360: $400/mo — built for 5-150 employees, with Salesforce underneath
A Salesforce-based CRM built for window, door, and other home-improvement dealers, covering lead intake, in-home estimate appointments, and installed-sale pipeline tracking. The Salesforce foundation is what justifies the $50/mo premium once a dealer is running multiple crews or locations and actually needs the deeper reporting and permission control that comes with it.
Leap: $350/mo — built for 3-100 employees, mobile-first
Mobile-first sales and proposal software generating in-home, financing-integrated estimates on a tablet. It skips the Salesforce backbone entirely, which keeps the price lower and the setup simpler for a single-location shop that doesn't need cross-location reporting yet.
Fit comparison
| Criterion | Improveit 360 | Leap |
|---|---|---|
| Employee range | 5-150 | 3-100 |
| Monthly cost | $400 | $350 |
| Salesforce-based | ||
| Native Mailchimp sync | ||
| Best-fit sales structure | Multi-location / franchise | Single-location |
The real risk at 15 employees isn't picking the "worse" platform — both are capable — it's paying the Salesforce premium before you actually need multi-location reporting, or picking the lighter platform right before you open a second branch.
The actual decision rule
- Single location, under 100 employees: Leap is comfortably in-range and $50/mo cheaper — there's no reason to pay for Salesforce overhead you're not using yet.
- At or above 100 employees: you've left Leap's supported range entirely — Improveit 360 (5-150) is the only one of the two still built for your headcount.
- Above 150 employees: neither platform's stated range covers you — that's an enterprise-CRM conversation, not a fit-between-these-two one.
- Planning a second location within the next year: consider paying the Salesforce premium now — migrating CRM platforms mid-growth costs more in retraining and lost pipeline data than $50/mo ever will.
Team-size fit, not feature depth, decides this: Leap wins under Improveit 360's Salesforce-premium territory; Improveit 360 only earns its price once you're running multiple locations or approaching its own ceiling.
Worth naming directly: a lot of "best window and door installation software" content online is written by, or paid by, whichever platform has the bigger affiliate budget — which tends to be the pricier one. That's exactly the incentive our engine is built to ignore; it ranks on your team-size and location-count fit, not on which vendor pays the largest bounty.
