Best MeasureSquare alternatives (2026)

Short answer

MeasureSquare is a flooring-specific takeoff and estimating tool for Windows, with a separate web CRM for bids and install scheduling. The closest flooring alternative is Cyncly Flooring (RFMS, Measure and JobRunner). STACK, Togal, Kreo, PlanSwift and Bluebeam are general takeoff tools, and Vorbi (our product) adds bids, supplier ordering and installer tracking for flooring, tile, trim and cabinetry subs.

Most people searching for a MeasureSquare alternative want one of three things: cloud instead of Windows, automated takeoff, or one system past the estimate. Here's how the options line up. For flooring workflows, see Vorbi for flooring.

"Limits" are our reading of each vendor's public pages on the date checked, not a test of the software. If a feature isn't listed, ask the vendor.

How to choose

  • Decide how flooring-specific you need to be. Seam and roll optimisation matters for carpet and sheet goods. LVT and tile jobs on multifamily projects are often more about unit-type roll-ups.
  • Desktop or cloud. Windows tools suit one estimator at a desk. Cloud tools are easier when estimators, PMs and the field share the numbers.
  • Check what happens after the estimate. If quantities are re-typed into bid documents, purchase orders and delivery schedules, look at tools that carry them forward.
  • Compare total cost. Add takeoff seats, CRM or project seats, and onboarding. Per-user tools grow with headcount.
  • Test on a real bid. Run one of your current jobs through the new tool and compare it with your MeasureSquare takeoff.

Q&A

Quick answers

What is the best alternative to MeasureSquare?

For another flooring-specific suite, look at Cyncly Flooring (RFMS, Measure and JobRunner). For general cloud takeoff, STACK, Togal and Kreo. For Windows desktop takeoff, PlanSwift. For PDF measurement and markup, Bluebeam Revu. If you want takeoff, bids, supplier ordering and installer tracking in one system for flooring, tile, trim and cabinetry, Vorbi (our product).

How much does MeasureSquare cost?

MeasureSquare 8 lists Retail at $540, Multi-family at $1,640 and Commercial at $1,970 per user per year. MeasureSquare CRM is separate: $690, $990 or $1,490 per user per year (checked 2026-10-18).

Does MeasureSquare run on Mac or in the browser?

The MeasureSquare 8 desktop editions are marked "Windows Only" on the pricing page. MeasureSquare also sells a Mobile edition, and its CRM is web-based.

Can general takeoff tools replace MeasureSquare for flooring?

For areas, lengths and counts, yes. MeasureSquare adds flooring-specific layout: seam placement, roll cut sheets, pattern matching and dye-lot allocation. If those drive your material orders, test a general tool carefully before switching.

Is there a MeasureSquare alternative for multifamily flooring?

MeasureSquare's Multi-family edition duplicates a room across units. Vorbi measures each unit type once, rolls quantities up by floor and building, and carries them into the bid, batch orders and installer tracking.
