Alternatively, If you don't have the time (or can't be bothered!) we can do it for you! Send us your spec and we can give you a quote.

We offer packages ranging from 2 to 10 devices. Use Find Plan £ to get a package tailored to your business! In the past, the licences did not renew automatically. Now with Focus40 this isn't the case. It will renew automatically depending on the length of your previously agreed contract. If you have any other questions regarding licences feel free to contact us!

Andy Young, Kingdom Rooms
"I have worked with Windowlink for many years now, originally using window and conservatory pricing software. These programs undoubtedly helped us grow our business with a product that gave clear and detailed information to customers and our whole team alike. Windowlink's understanding of this industry and skill set helped us improve bottomline by working to avoid mistakes and time delays and helped us achieve enviably high customer reviews too."
Ryan Schofield, Thames Valley Windows
"We have worked with Windowlink for over 13 years and Focus is intrinsically linked to our sales processes and documentation including survey paperwork. We have spent a lot of time keeping our product ranges up to date within the program and this has paid dividends to our organisation and smooth order processing. When we have left products outside of Focus this has led to errors and issues but once they are brought in to the program we have much more consistency in specification. Their support team are very helpful and their understanding of the industry and its products makes customisation and development much easier than working with typical ‘software’ companies."
