Detailed Review
Simplicate is a Dutch service-business platform founded in 2014 and based in Groningen, with a second office in Amsterdam. Rather than selling quoting as a standalone product, it bundles a custom-styled quote editor (“offertes in eigen huisstijl”) into a full service-business suite covering CRM, sales, projects, hours, invoicing and HR, published across three tiers: Organize at €24.50 a user a month, Rise at €26, and Optimize at €27, each with a 15% discount for annual billing.
The quote editor itself is included in every tier rather than gated behind the top plan, and quotes flow directly into the rest of the platform — an accepted quote can move straight into project delivery, time tracking and invoicing without leaving the system. What separates the tiers is mostly reporting depth and support: Rise adds advanced reporting, productivity targets and price agreements, while Optimize adds a dedicated customer success manager, priority support and industry benchmarking.
Because quoting is one module inside a broader PSA/CRM suite rather than the product itself, Simplicate is not a fit for a team that only wants a dedicated proposal tool — and the three tiers sit close together in price (€24.50 to €27 a user a month), with the real differentiation happening in support and reporting rather than in the quoting feature set.
For a Dutch or EU service business that wants quotes tied directly to project delivery and billing in one system, that bundling is the appeal.
What Simplicate does well
- Quote editor included in every tier, not gated behind a premium plan
- Transparent per-user pricing published for all three tiers
- 14-day free trial with no credit card required
- Quotes flow directly into project delivery, time tracking and invoicing in the same suite
Where Simplicate falls short
- Not a dedicated proposal tool — quoting is one module inside a broader PSA/CRM suite
- The three pricing tiers sit close together (€24.50 to €27/user/month), with differentiation mostly in reporting and support rather than quoting features
- No named security certification published on the pages reviewed
Standout feature. A custom-styled quote editor included in every tier of a full service-business suite, so an accepted quote moves straight into project delivery and invoicing without switching tools.
