Questions you might have
I don’t really have a system. Is that okay?
Yes. Most people start with their customers, the services they offer, and one upcoming job. We’ll help you put those basics in place.
Do I have to use every feature?
No. Use what you need. If you work alone or don’t sell products, you can skip the team and stock features and still send your first estimate today.
Will I need to move my old jobs?
No. Let current jobs finish where they are. We’ll help you start your next new job in Portara.
Do my clients need an account?
No. They review, sign, and pay from a secure link. No account, no password.
Can my team use it from their phones?
Yes. Portara works on any phone, tablet, or computer. Your team gets work offers, job briefings, and enters their hours from their phones.
What happens after the 14‑day trial?
Pick a plan if you want to keep going. There’s no credit card needed to start, so you’ll never be charged by surprise.
