ConnectWise Sell is now ConnectWise CPQ, and it still does product quoting well. Teams look for an alternative for one of two reasons. Some want a different product quoting tool. Others are quoting projects, and Sell has no way to estimate the hours. The right alternative depends on which of those you are fixing. We build ScopeStack for the labor side, and we say below which tools fit the product side better than we do.
TL;DR
The Marketplace listing calls it "ConnectWise CPQ™ (formerly ConnectWise Sell)." Old Sell URLs now redirect to the CPQ product page, which describes it as "automated quote and proposal software."
It's strong on products. The listing says you can "instantly search and compare product pricing and availability from all major distributors like Arrow, Tech Data, Ingram Micro, Dell Amazon Business, and Synnex." It places e-orders, sends renewal and warranty alerts, and has e-signature. Quotes start from the client details already in the PSA.
Labor goes on the quote as line items. What its pages don't describe is working out those hours. We found no mention of tasks, roles, rate cards or statement of work generation on the CPQ page or its Marketplace listing. There are no published CPQ prices; the pricing page asks you to request a quote.
| Tool | Best at | PSA sync | Distributor pricing | Labor and SOW |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CPQ (Sell) | Products, renewals, e-orders | Built in | Arrow, Tech Data, Ingram Micro, Synnex and more | Line items. No effort model described |
| QuoteWerks | Product quotes with deep PSA write-back | Projects, agreements, tickets | Pax8, TD SYNNEX, Ingram Micro, D&H | Labor lines |
| ScalePad Quoter | MSP quoting with unlimited users | Contacts, deals, win or loss | Ingram Micro, TD SYNNEX, D&H | Labor as a line group |
| Salesbuildr | Quotes that become agreements | Deal lines, agreements, tickets | "Over 50 distributor feeds" | Labor roles come from the PSA |
| Kaseya Quote Manager | Hardware and procurement on Kaseya | Deals and tickets | Ingram Micro, TD SYNNEX | Not described |
| Zomentum | Proposal to payment | Clients, contacts, deals, quote lines | Ingram Micro, TechData, D&H | Not described |
| Scopable | Quotes from client data | Reads records; writes deal fields only | Ingram Micro, Pax8 | Labor lines, scope sections |
| ScopeStack | Project labor and the SOW | Native. Builds the project from the scope | None | Rate cards by role, approvals, SOW from the scope |
If you like how Sell quotes products and just want a better tool for it, these two are the closest swaps.
QuoteWerks names more PSA record types than any other tool here. Its ConnectWise integration page says you can "turn approved quotes into Projects, Agreements, Tickets, and Purchasing records automatically inside ConnectWise PSA." Distributor content comes with its Pinnacle plan.
ScalePad Quoter, formerly quoter.com, says it is built for MSPs. It reads your PSA contacts and deals, updates the deal when a quote is won or lost, and lists a catalog of "21M+ products." Plans are priced by how many quotes you send, with unlimited users.
Salesbuildr's pitch is "Accepted quotes land in Autotask, ConnectWise or Halo, so nobody retypes the order." From an approved quote, you can add recurring services to a ConnectWise agreement and open a ticket.
Zomentum covers similar ground from proposal to payment. Its help center maps clients, contacts, deals and quote lines between Zomentum and ConnectWise.
Kaseya Quote Manager is "cloud-based quoting software for MSPs" focused on hardware and procurement. It says you can "sync proposals to opportunities and assign sales orders to PSA tickets without added effort." Its help docs name both Autotask and ConnectWise. Kaseya doesn't publish a price for it alone. It's part of Kaseya 365 Ops, listed at $129 per user per month with a three-user minimum.
Scopable calls itself "MSP quoting software from client data." It reads companies, contacts, deals and configurations from the PSA and adds Microsoft 365 and RMM context. Quotes carry labor lines and written scope sections, and its MCP server is in beta.
The trade-off is the PSA. Scopable says "write-back is limited to quote-linked opportunity fields," so projects and agreements stay a manual step. Its site doesn't describe Autotask.
Bring a real deal and watch the scope become an SOW and a PSA project.
Get a demoA firewall has a list price. A migration doesn't. Someone has to decide the tasks, the hours and who does them. Sell's pages don't describe that step.
After rolling out ScopeStack, Computacenter cut contract turnaround by 75%, from 8 days to under 2. We're rated 4.9 out of 5 on G2.
We don't do distributor pricing or renewal alerts. If you quote hardware too, keep a product tool for it.
You don't have to replace Sell to fix project quoting. Hardware and licenses can stay in Sell with its distributor feeds. The project scope, hours and SOW come from ScopeStack, and both feed the PSA. We have no native integration with CPQ, so the client gets two documents. Our ScopeStack vs ConnectWise CPQ comparison covers how that works.
We use credit-based pricing with unlimited users and no per-seat fees. Credits are consumed only when a project is created. Native PSA integrations for ConnectWise and Autotask are included. Our Integration Engine for other apps is priced separately. Current rates are on the pricing page.
Competitor prices below are the monthly-billing list prices on each pricing page, read in November 2026.
| Tool | What the pricing page shows |
|---|---|
| CPQ (Sell) | No published prices. Request a quote |
| QuoteWerks | From $49 a month per concurrent user. Distributor content needs Pinnacle, $99 |
| ScalePad Quoter | From $299 a month for 75 quotes, unlimited users, 12-month term |
| Salesbuildr | From $329 a month with 3 users and up to 6 distributors, plus $1,099 onboarding |
| Kaseya Quote Manager | Not sold alone on the site. Kaseya 365 Ops is $129 per user per month, three-user minimum |
| Zomentum | From $249 a month with 3 users |
| Scopable | Free plan. Pro is $39 per user per month |
Pick QuoteWerks if you want product quotes to create projects, agreements and tickets in the PSA.
Pick ScalePad Quoter if lots of people build quotes and you'd rather pay by volume than by seat.
Pick Salesbuildr if the monthly agreement is what you need to land cleanly in the PSA.
Pick Kaseya Quote Manager if you are moving to Autotask inside the Kaseya stack.
Pick Scopable if you quote mostly from what's already in a client's environment and can live with light write-back.
Pick ScopeStack if you quote projects, the hours decide your margin, and you want the SOW and the PSA project to match.
For product quoting, QuoteWerks, ScalePad Quoter and Salesbuildr are the closest swaps. For labor, ScopeStack prices hours by role, writes the SOW and builds the PSA project.
Is ConnectWise Sell the same as ConnectWise CPQ?Yes. ConnectWise's Marketplace listing calls the product "ConnectWise CPQ™ (formerly ConnectWise Sell)," and the old Sell pages redirect to the CPQ page.
Does ConnectWise CPQ handle labor and statements of work?The CPQ pages describe products, distributor pricing, renewals and e-signature. We found no mention of hours, roles, rate cards or SOW generation.
Which Sell alternative creates projects in the PSA?QuoteWerks says it can create projects, agreements and tickets from approved quotes. ScopeStack creates the project from the scoped labor, with phases, tickets and hours.
Can I keep ConnectWise Sell and add a labor scoping tool?Yes. Keep Sell for hardware and distributor pricing, and use ScopeStack for the project scope and SOW. Both feed the PSA. ScopeStack has no native integration with CPQ, so they produce separate documents.
Which ConnectWise Sell alternatives work with AI assistants?ScalePad Quoter, Zomentum and ScopeStack list MCP servers. Scopable's MCP server is in beta. The CPQ pages don't describe MCP.
ScopeStack publishes this page. Details for the other tools come from their own product, integration, help and pricing pages, read in November 2026. Kaseya's PSA details come from its help docs. Where a vendor's site is silent, we say "not described."
