Frequently asked questions

How much does Pool Office Manager cost?

The linked vendor page accessed August 20, 2026, lists $125 per month for the first active user and $25 per month for each additional active user, with no contract. A previous PoolFlow comparison listed $30 per technician; that price was outdated and has been removed.

Does Pool Office Manager include chemical and inventory tools?

Yes. Pool Office Manager documents a chemical calculator, chemical and parts inventory, and reporting on chemical costs and customer profitability. Those capabilities are now credited in the comparison.

Does Pool Office Manager have an LSI calculator?

Its public page describes a chemical calculator but does not clearly label it as an LSI calculator. The comparison therefore marks chemical dosing as documented and LSI as not verified.

Which product includes invoicing and QuickBooks sync?

Pool Office Manager documents invoicing, payment processing, and two-way QuickBooks Online sync. PoolFlow does not currently claim invoicing or QuickBooks sync.
