Qwilr alternative

The short version

Qwilr
Q
Qwilr is a page builder for proposals: blocks, widgets, layouts and styles on every page. Its reviewers on G2 put the time to implement it at a month, and Qwilr sells onboarding packages from $1,399. It's priced per person: Starter is $49 a month each.
Nusii
Nusii is simpler, on purpose. It leaves the design options out, so there's nothing to learn: set your branding once, write in sections, and your team sends its first proposal on day one. Nusii sends it for you, and three people pay $49 a month.

Choose Qwilr if you want to design every page yourself and have the time to train your team. Choose Nusii if you want everyone on your team sending on-brand proposals from their first day, at a third of the price.

Simple to get set up and use. I’ve tried other proposal tools and clients found them complicated and hard to understand. Nusii is straightforward and gives me everything that I need to get clients to proposals created and signed. Happy and thankful customer.

Why switch

Why people look for an alternative to Qwilr

Qwilr can do a lot, and every bit of it is something your team has to learn. For a team that wants proposals out quickly, the page builder, the price per person and the plan minimums get in the way.

  1. 1

    A page builder to learn

    Blocks, widgets, styles and layouts on every page. Qwilr sells onboarding packages from $1,399 and template conversions from $149.

  2. 2

    Every seat costs $49

    Starter is $49 per person a month, and it's the only plan you can pay monthly.

  3. 3

    The basics need five seats

    Your own domain, custom fonts and badge-free emails need Growth: at least five people, billed annually only.

  4. 4

    Automation is metered

    Every page created through its API, Zapier, Make or MCP costs $2.50 after the free allowance, and monthly Starter has none.

No learning curve

Nusii is much easier to use. No training required.

Learning

Productive on day one, without training

When software becomes too complex, you can't just ask anyone to use it and expect them to be productive right away. We looked at recent reviews of Qwilr on G2 and found the same recurring complaint: it was hard to use. Even in 5-star reviews. Its reviewers put the time to implement it at a month, and Qwilr sells onboarding packages to help.

Nusii is built to be learned on your first day, by you and by everyone you add to your team. On G2, reviewers rate Nusii 9.4 for ease of use and 9.5 for ease of setup, against 8.8 and 8.9 for Qwilr. You can still make stunning proposals, faster, and no training required.

Nusii for us is the effective, easy to use option, that has little training overhead.

Design

Fewer design options, on purpose

Nusii doesn't have Qwilr's design options, and that's deliberate. In Qwilr, every page is built from blocks, each with its own backgrounds, gradients and text styles to set. Every option is something your team has to learn, and one more way a proposal can come out off brand.

In Nusii, design is one settings page: your logo, a Classic or Modern layout, two fonts from a handpicked 12 and your colors. Set it once, and every proposal from everyone on your team comes out on brand, on any screen. You write; the theme takes care of the rest.

I love how I can reuse and reorder sections inside a single window. No more fooling around with typesetting, converting documents, and stressing about layout!

Maurice Cherry, Founder at 3eighteen media
Sending

Nusii sends it for you, and tells you what happens next

Qwilr doesn't send emails: you set the page live, copy its link and paste it into your own email. Nusii sends the proposal for you, from your own email domain, so it knows when your client opens the email, views the proposal, accepts and pays, and notifies you each time.

On Agency and up, automatic reminders tell you when it's time to follow up. What Nusii doesn't record is how long a client spent on each section. Qwilr does, so if that drives your follow-ups, it's a real reason to stay with it.

I can see when a prospective client opens the email and views the proposal, which is really useful for following up. And getting that notification when they accept? Yippee! That never gets old.

Russell Brown, Owner & Director at Digital Stream

Plans

The basics, without a five-person minimum

Qwilr's Starter plan is $49 per person a month, and it's the only plan you can pay monthly. Your own domain, custom fonts and emails without the Qwilr badge need Growth, billed annually only, for at least five people. Live chat support is on Scale, for at least ten.

Nusii's Agency plan gives three people your own domain, no Nusii branding, CRM integrations and automatic reminders for $49 a month, billed monthly. Chat support is on every plan.

I was looking for a simple proposal platform that wasn’t going to break the bank, that looked professional, and was easy to use. I didn’t need all the bells and whistles other platforms were trying to sell me on. I found that with Nusii. Simple. Clean. Professional.

Skot Waldron, Managing Partner at Multiple
API and AI

Automate it without paying per proposal

Qwilr's API comes with every plan, but each page it creates costs $2.50 after the yearly free allowance, and monthly Starter includes none. The same credits pay for pages made through Zapier, Make and Qwilr's MCP, with no spending cap.

Nusii's API, CLI and MCP come with every plan, with no fees per proposal. Ask Claude or ChatGPT for a draft from your template, change the pricing in a sentence, then review and send it in Nusii. Qwilr's MCP creates pages from templates too, but can't edit a page or its pricing once it's created.

Which should you use?

An honest answer: it depends on how you sell

Q Stick with Qwilr if…

  • Your proposals have to be perfectly on brand, down to the last pixel.
  • You want background images, custom fonts and a page you design block by block.
  • You want to know how long a client spent on each section, or need an ROI calculator.
  • You have the time to train your team, and the budget for Qwilr's price per person.

Good fit: A sales team with design help on hand that wants interactive web pages and the analytics behind them.

What Qwilr does well

  • Full design control, block by block
  • Time spent on each section, and who viewed on Growth and up
  • Quote blocks with an ROI calculator
  • Password, time and view limits on every plan
  • A 14-day trial without a credit card

Choose Nusii if…

  • You need your team to be productive with your proposal software right away.
  • Proposals that are on brand, but not pixel-perfect, are enough for you.
  • You want proposals sent, tracked and followed up from one place.
  • Qwilr's price per person doesn't fit your budget.

Good fit: An agency or consultancy that wants everyone sending on-brand proposals from day one, without training anyone.

The trade-offs

  • Less design control: a theme, your colors and two fonts
  • No time spent per section: you see opens, views, downloads and acceptance
  • No passwords on proposal links, only an expiry date
  • The free trial asks for a credit card (with a 60-day money-back guarantee)

Switching

Moving from Qwilr to Nusii

Your proposals come with you as content. Copy your best page in once: its blocks become sections, and the parts you repeat become templates and reusable sections.

What comes with you

Your templates
Copy your best Qwilr page into Nusii once and save it as a template. Its blocks become sections.
Your saved blocks
About us, case studies, terms and pricing become reusable sections you drop into any proposal.
Your look
Your logo, brand colors, fonts and a cover image appear on every proposal you send.

What works differently

A proposal, not a page builder
There are no blocks to style. You write in sections, and your branding settings take care of the layout.
What you track
You'll see when a client opens your email and your proposal, downloads the PDF, accepts and pays, but not how long they spent on each section.
When to switch
Qwilr's annual plans are paid upfront and seats can only be reduced at renewal, so plan the move around your renewal date.

How we help

  • Most people have their templates set up within a day.
  • We'll jump on a call to help set up your account and first template.

I can put together a polished proposal quickly without fighting the software, and my clients can review and sign it electronically, which makes it easier for them to say yes and get started.

Customers who switched

Teams who wanted something simpler

We started Jumping Rivers 10 years ago. For the first couple of years, we struggled to send, format, and track proposals. We tried a few options, then happily settled on Nusii. Simple and easy to use.

Colin GillespieCTO, Jumping Rivers

With Nusii I can get a proposal out the door in 20 minutes and they look far better than the templates I was creating with InDesign, it’s almost annoying!

Laura WilliamsFounder, client-portal.io

A few years back, we realised that we needed a more consistent approach to proposals other than a simple email. We found Nusii, and it’s been a breath of fresh air, easy for both our team and our prospective clients to use and understand.

Lee PanchbhayaFounder, Pixxel

Frequently asked questions

Nusii vs Qwilr: your questions

Is Nusii easier to use than Qwilr?

Yes. Nusii is designed for simplicity: it leaves out the page builder, so your team can start creating proposals on day one, without training. On G2, reviewers rate Nusii 9.4 for ease of use and 9.5 for ease of setup, against 8.8 and 8.9 for Qwilr, whose reviewers put its time to implement at a month. Qwilr also sells onboarding packages from $1,399.

How much cheaper is Nusii compared to Qwilr?

For a team of 3, Nusii's Agency plan is $49 a month and Qwilr Starter is $147 a month: Nusii costs a third as much. For 5 people it's $87 against $245. Qwilr's own domain and custom fonts need Growth, which is billed annually only, for at least five people. Prices as of October 2026, billed monthly.

Does Qwilr send the proposal for me?

No. Qwilr gives you a link to paste into your own email. Nusii sends the proposal for you, from your own email domain, tells you when your client opens the email and the proposal, and reminds you to follow up on the Agency and Business plans.

Can I connect AI assistants like Claude or ChatGPT to Nusii?

Yes. Nusii MCP is included in every plan, so you can connect Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot and other AI assistants to your account. Ask about your proposals, draft new ones from your templates, or rewrite sections and pricing on a draft, with no per-proposal fees. Qwilr has an MCP on every plan too: it creates pages from templates using its paid credits, but can't edit a page or its pricing once it's created.

Can Nusii show how long a client spent on each section?

No, and that's the trade-off. Nusii tells you when your client opens the email and the proposal, on which device, when they download the PDF, and when they accept and pay, with a notification for each. If time spent per section matters to you, Qwilr records it.

Does Nusii have all the features Qwilr has?

Both offer the core features you need: templates, tracking, e-signatures, interactive pricing and integrations. Qwilr adds a visual page builder for pixel-perfect designs, an ROI calculator and password-protected links. Nusii leaves the page builder out on purpose and focuses on speed and simplicity, while still producing professional proposals.

Can I migrate my proposals from Qwilr to Nusii?

While there's no automatic import, Nusii's simple editor makes it quick to recreate your proposals. Most users have their templates set up within a day. Our support team is happy to help with the transition.

Which proposal software has better customer support?

Nusii offers chat support on all plans, including the Freelancer plan. Qwilr's live chat is on its Scale plan; Starter and Growth get email support. Nusii's support team responds directly, no outsourcing.
