Why Flooring Retailers and Installers Are Moving to Service Buddy from QFloors and Broadlume

The flooring industry is evolving rapidly, and so are the technology solutions that support it. Many flooring retailers, installers, and cleaning businesses are re-evaluating their software needs, looking for more modern, efficient, and scalable solutions. As a result, a growing number of businesses are moving away from traditional platforms like QFloors and Broadlume and switching to Service Buddy, a cloud-based, all-in-one flooring business management platform designed for speed, simplicity, and profitability.
