System 7x

A website shows people what you do. System 7x is where the work happens once they decide: your customers sign in to their own portal, and you run the business behind it from the same system.

It is deployed for one business at a time, with its own database. Not a shared application with your records in somebody else's table.

Our platform

Quotes, invoices, appointments and documents in one place. Metrolux runs on it every day.

The plans compared

The planned plan lineup. Anything marked Coming soon is not available yet.

Two-factor login is on every plan and is never a paid extra. Add-ons on any plan: industry modules, extra users and accountant access, and extra bank accounts (coming soon).

What your customers get

• Invoices they can read and download.
• Quotes they can read, and a way to request a new one.
• Appointments they book themselves, against your real availability.
• Service reports and documents, kept where they can find them again.
• A way to pay by card, landing in your own Stripe account rather than ours.
• Warranty coverage, without having to ask you what it covers.
• A stock list they can request a quote against, for the clients you enable it for.

What you run behind it

• Invoicing and quotes, clients, payments, expenses, bills and recurring invoices.
• Inventory, purchases, purchase orders, supplier quotes and stock locations.
• Projects, tasks and time tracking.
• Appointments, service reports, warranty tracking and technician accounts.
• Card payments, once you connect your own Stripe account. We walk you through that connection; the money goes straight to you and never passes through us.
• Every one of those is a switch. A deployment carries what you turn on and nothing else, per client where it makes sense.

Who this is for

• A business whose customers keep phoning to ask where their invoice, their quote or their appointment is.
• A business running its books in one place, its jobs in another and its documents in an inbox.
• A business that wants its customers to serve themselves without handing them a third-party account.

Who this is not for

You want an online shop

This is not one. There is no public product catalogue, no cart and no checkout. Customers request quotes against what you have; they do not buy from it. A storefront is website work, and it is priced as one.

You want it to replace your website

It will not. System 7x is the back office and the customer portal; the website stays the website, and the two are linked rather than merged.

You want one shared account for several businesses

Each business gets its own deployment and its own database. That is deliberate, and it is why your records are not in a table with somebody else's.
