Trace vs Texting Clients Yourself

A text answers one question. A timeline answers the next ten. When you text updates by hand, photos get buried in a thread, dates live in your head, and every "when's the tile coming?" lands on your phone. With Trace, your client has one link with the whole job on it: every stage, its date and its photos.

Side by side

  • Texting: the update lives in a thread. Trace: it lands on the stage it belongs to
  • Texting: the dates live in your head. Trace: every stage shows its date
  • Texting: photos get buried. Trace: each stage keeps its photos, in order
  • Texting: one person sees it. Trace: they can share the link with the rest of the household

Trace still texts for you

When you post an update, your client gets a short text with the link. Their messages come back to the job, so you can reply from there.
