Frequently asked questions
What is the best PSA alternative for restoration contractors in 2026?
riivet is the most modern PSA (Canam Systems) alternative for restoration contractors in 2026. PSA has deep industry roots and a wide legacy feature set, but it is built on older technology with a steeper learning curve. riivet offers everything PSA covers plus AI estimating, AI carrier negotiations, LiDAR scanning, BOS, training, and chat — in a modern interface.
Can I import my data from PSA to riivet?
Yes. riivet handles full data migration from PSA. The onboarding team processes any export format. Clients, properties, jobs, financials, and historical records land in riivet on Day 1 with nothing missing.
Does riivet support the same carrier network as PSA?
Yes. riivet supports carrier integrations and includes an AI carrier negotiations engine that works directly with adjusters from your work email to maximize claim recovery on every job.
Is riivet easier to learn than PSA?
Significantly. PSA is often described as having a steep learning curve. riivet uses a modern, opinionated interface and ships with a built-in AI training assistant that answers any question instantly. Most early access partners report new hires getting up to speed quickly, often within their first couple of weeks.
How much does a restoration company save by switching from PSA to riivet?
PSA users often also pay for tools like scanning, modern messaging, analytics, automations, and a separate BDR / marketing tool. riivet replaces all of those add-ons in one platform, typically saving an estimated $50,000+ per year in combined software costs alone.
Does riivet include AI estimating, AI negotiations, and LiDAR scanning?
Yes. riivet ships all three natively — AI estimating, AI carrier negotiations, and built-in LiDAR scanning. Older, legacy restoration platforms often stop at project management and job costing; riivet builds these modern capabilities in.
