Advice for contractorOur Ongoing Commitment to Contractors: A Partnership with Elper
Elper was founded in 2016 by two Quebec-based entrepreneurs under the brand name Hoptimize Pro, representing the willingness to become an everyday partner in managing construction businesses. In 2024, the company changed its name to Elper, which was essentially a play on words with the well-known expression “helper.”
Elper is an innovative management software specifically designed to meet the needs of construction industry contractors. Developed by a team of experts who have an in-depth understanding of construction industry challenges, Elper is meant to streamline and optimize project management, quoting, and invoicing processes.
Hence, we’re proud to announce our partnership with them.
