Software for IT support business owners

Keep the support agreement close to the hours you bill.

A workstation setup, an office visit and a migration project each need a clear business record. Microtra organizes agreed scope, client details, time and invoices around your support work. Diagnosis, remote access and monitoring belong in your specialist technical tools.

The everyday details

You know the work.
The admin adds up.

An initial request can become a larger engagement

A slow laptop conversation may expand into replacement planning or a wider office review. Establish which work is authorized and discuss additions before the invoice tells a different story from the client's request.

Short pieces of work are hard to reconstruct

Preparation, an on-site visit and follow-up testing may happen separately. Log the business effort as it occurs so the final charge does not depend on remembered calendar entries.

Useful notes can contain the wrong information

A support record should explain the accepted task without becoming a password store. Keep credentials, recovery details and sensitive system information in the secure technical processes suited to them.

How Microtra helps

Keep the business connected.

Use the tools that fit your day, with your records ready on your phone or on the web.

Keep the engagement identifiable

Record client details and concise business notes with estimates and invoices. Identify the person who can approve work and distinguish billing contacts from the people requesting support.

Put agreed tasks beside the visit

Use the work record for task lists, status and notes. Assign staff and appointments for the visits you arrange, checking your own technical prerequisites before confirming the schedule.

Explore this feature

Make service time explainable

Use a timer or manual entries for approved support tasks. Review hours and descriptions before preparing time-and-materials billing from the work record.

Quote a defined project

Prepare estimate items for setup labor, agreed equipment and other accepted services. Keep exclusions and scope changes clear rather than implying that an estimate grants unlimited support.

Retain the cost of completing the work

Enter business expenses and billable client purchases with receipt photos. Check the invoice PDF before sharing it through your device and record payment collected elsewhere.

A day in the life

From the first quote to paid.

  1. Clarify what the business has approved

    Confirm the contact, requested outcome and scope you can accept. Keep technical access and security checks in the systems your support process uses for them.

  2. Arrange the visit or work period

    Review availability, assign the work and note the agreed appointment. Record dependencies as tasks without suggesting that the app checks a network or device automatically.

  3. Log the effort and discuss additions

    Capture service time against the task. If the request expands, agree the additional work with the authorized contact and update the estimate before continuing beyond the accepted scope.

  4. Send a readable bill

    Review labor descriptions and approved purchases, then share the invoice PDF. Enter payment received through your usual channel and retain the business history for a later inquiry.

A few useful answers

Questions from IT support business owners.

Is Microtra a remote support or monitoring platform?

It does not provide remote device access, network monitoring, automated patching or a technical help desk. Use specialist technical tools while keeping the agreed business work and billing here.

Why is IT support work labeled Case?

The Law & professional services setup starts with Case and Client. Linked records are off; adjust labels or enable modules in Modules & terms if your business needs different terminology.

Can I keep customer passwords in client notes?

Use a dedicated secure credential process for passwords and recovery information. Keep ordinary notes focused on the work agreed, approvals and business contact context.

Can I bill an equipment purchase and support time together?

Use distinct invoice descriptions for the approved equipment and labor. Review quantities, time entries and billable expenses before sharing the document with the client.
