Software for web design business owners
A brochure site can grow into copy revisions, product entry and another round of mobile layouts. Keep the commercial agreement visible as the design changes, with tasks, time and invoices that explain what the client asked you to deliver.
Unleash your potential.
The everyday details
The client still owes photographs and service copy, but the launch date remains in the conversation. Note the dependencies and who must provide each asset so the next step is clear without reopening every message.
An extra landing page or a replacement navigation can arrive as a casual request. Compare the request with the agreed deliverables, discuss its effect on the fee and keep the revised scope connected to the work.
A plugin update, content change and troubleshooting call may happen between larger projects. Record the work while it happens if your maintenance arrangement bills time, rather than searching a calendar at invoice time.
Client review, final content checks and training can outlast the main design phase. Make them visible in the task list and distinguish work you provide from hosting or services the client buys elsewhere.

No. Use your own design, coding, testing and hosting tools for website production. Microtra supports the business records around that work, including scope, tasks, estimates, time and invoices.
Give each agreement a clear description of its deliverables and billing basis. Record maintenance tasks and time against the work they belong to, and discuss larger changes as a separate scope before adding them to an invoice.
Progress invoices can be prepared from estimates. Review the stage and amounts with the agreement before sharing the PDF; agreeing that a milestone has been met remains a conversation with your client.
Use the review channel or design tool you agree with the client. The Microtra client portal is coming soon, and Microtra does not provide website previews, code review or a design approval workspace.
The starting work labels are Job and Client, with scheduling and time entries enabled. Linked records and stock begin off; use Modules & terms if you later need to enable either module.
