Wraptor vs Spreadsheets
The most common 'system' for wrap shops. A spreadsheet for jobs, another for customers, another for inventory. It works until it doesn't. One missed row, one outdated cell, and jobs fall through the cracks.

Questions to ask when evaluating Spreadsheets
No automation. Everything is manual data entry.
No real-time status updates. Data goes stale immediately.
No invoicing, no payments, no customer portal.
No collaboration. Two people editing = merge conflicts.
No AI, no intelligence, no alerts.
Scales terribly. 50+ jobs and it becomes unmanageable.
