Stop Funding Their Mistakes: The Financial Case for Unbundling

Let’s talk about your P&L (Profit and Loss).

If you are paying $100+ a month for inspection software, you are paying a "Bloat Tax."

The "All-in-One" Math Doesn't Add Up

Legacy companies sell you on the idea that having everything in one place is cheaper. It isn't.

• The Subscription: You pay a high monthly fee for a bundled CRM, Scheduler, and Payment processor.
• The Hidden Fees: They often tack on proprietary "processing fees" or lock you into contracts.
• The Opportunity Cost: When their "All-in-One" server goes down, your entire business stops. You can't book, you can't report, you can't get paid.

The "Specialist Stack" Math

In 2026, the smart money is on Unbundling. By using Square for your business admin, you are utilizing a multi-billion dollar platform that is largely free to use (you only pay standard processing fees when you make a sale).

• Square Booking: Free / Low Cost.
• Square Invoicing: Free.
• SwiftReporter: $39 USD/mo.

The Savings

You aren't just saving money on the monthly subscription. You are saving money by not funding the development of bad features.You stop paying for the R&D of a mediocre calendar. You stop paying for the server maintenance of a clunky CRM.

Pay for the Engine. Not the Upholstery. Run a leaner, more profitable business.
