“UpRate has replaced many of our manual processes, allowing us to manage everything in one centralised system.”
Alan McCaigHire Desk ManagerForsyth of Denny · Scotland
I have found the Uprate Resource Management System to be an extremely useful tool for managing our resources and day-to-day operations. The onboarding process was straightforward, with clear guidance and support that made it easy to get up and running quickly. Even for new users, the system is easy to learn and doesn't require extensive training. UpRate has replaced many of our manual processes, allowing us to manage everything in one centralised system.
One of the biggest benefits is how responsive the platform is to updates and amendments. Changes can be made quickly and are reflected immediately, helping to keep projects and resource schedules accurate and up to date. This flexibility has made it much easier to adapt to the ever-changing requirements of our customers.
The invoicing functionality is another major advantage. The ability to generate and manage invoices directly within the system, combined with seamless integration with Xero, has significantly streamlined our financial processes. The direct link to Xero reduces duplicate data entry, improves accuracy, and saves valuable administrative time.
Overall, Uprate has become an integral part of our business. It is easy to use, reliable, and continues to evolve through practical updates and improvements. The combination of resource management, invoicing, rapid amendments, and Xero integration has helped us work more efficiently, reduce administration, and maintain greater control across our operations.

Frequently asked questions
Sales Manager is free for exactly 1 user. Larger teams buy the next user-capacity band: 2 users £50, up to 5 £100, up to 10 £200, up to 15 £300, up to 20 £400, up to 30 £550 and up to 50 £800 per month, all + VAT. Contact us above 50 users.

Yes. Add Invoice Manager to Sales Manager without Resource Manager. Invoice Manager starts at £58 + VAT for 20 invoices per month. Capacity rounds up in blocks of 20, up to 3,000. Each successive block has a 5% lower per-invoice rate, down to £0.60; earlier blocks keep their rates. Selecting it buys at least 20 invoices, even with zero demand.
Resource Manager includes plant and labour records, assignments, scheduling and timesheets. Capacity rounds up in blocks of 20, up to 3,000 ongoing managed resources. The first block costs £100 + VAT per month; each successive block has a 5% lower per-resource rate, down to £1. Earlier blocks keep their rates. Both plant and people count as resources. Zero resources costs zero. Contact us for larger capacities.
Positive invoice and resource demand rounds up to blocks of 20. For example, 51 invoices buys 60 invoices per month for £165.45 + VAT; 51 resources buys capacity for 60 ongoing resources for £285.25 + VAT per month. Later blocks have lower per-item rates, subject to the minimum rates; earlier blocks keep their rates. User capacity and optional module charges add together.
Annual prepayment saves 10% on the complete selected subscription. The quote shows the monthly equivalent and the annual total charged in advance. Invoice allowances still reset on your monthly subscription renewal date without rollover.
