ArchiBoard vs Houzz Pro
Houzz Pro is the broadest suite: CRM and lead generation from the Houzz marketplace, 3D floor plans, mood boards, proposals, Houzz Pay and a mobile app. ArchiBoard does not compete on marketing and 3D — it is a procurement tool: shared catalog, line economics, supplier discount split and a timeline that drives purchases.
Pick Houzz Pro if you want leads from Houzz, 3D visualisation and client payments in one place and work mostly in the US, CA, UK or AU. Pick ArchiBoard if your studio buys furniture and finishes from suppliers across Europe or Russia and needs the math of every line, not a proposal template.
