Switching & data portability
Know how you can leave before you decide how to join.
Customer history, estimates, invoices, job notes and photos can become more valuable than the software subscription itself. Contractor Tool Scout treats data portability as a buying criterion, not a cancellation afterthought.

“Not scored” is intentional. Contractor Tool Scout does not infer switching difficulty from marketing copy alone.
What the index will verify hands-on
- Customer and property export
- Jobs, schedules and status history
- Estimates, invoices and payment records
- Photos, attachments and field notes
- File format and data usability
- Cancellation steps and notice requirements
- Post-cancellation access and retention
- Migration assistance and documented APIs
No invented exit scores: a product does not receive a low/moderate/high switching label until Contractor Tool Scout has enough direct evidence to support it.
