Pricing model
Pricing changes often and each tool prices differently (per seat, per minute, per call, or usage based). Rather than freeze a number that goes stale, we link straight to each vendor’s own pricing page so you see the current model at the source.
What customers say
Verbatim public reviews, praise and complaints both, each linked to where it was posted. We do not edit or cherry-pick for tone.
Service Fusion
4.5/5 · 88 reviews“Its an all in one platform, from making work orders, sending SMS messages, to generating and sending invoices. Its very easy to use not only for the back office, but also for the customers that would prefer to submit work orders via an online portal.”
“as time went by and our job count grew we found that performance dropped when saving work orders or doing a general global search.”
“Support was very helpful in answering all our questions and getting us set up.”
“support isnt 24/7 which means if theres issues during after hrs it most likely will not be handled until the next day.”
Workiz
4.6/5 · 26 reviews“Workiz integrates almost everything I need to run my business in one place. It functions as a CRM with built-in phone and text systems, so there's no need to jump between platforms.”
“Pricing is my biggest concern. It's expensive, and many new features come with additional costs.”
“The automations are the standout feature. Automatic text messages based on job status save a significant amount of time.”
“I don't like that phone plans charge by the minute and per text message.”
