Look at a third option if
You're a small team and both cost more than you want to pay. Claver is covered below. Weighing Jobber too? See Jobber vs Housecall Pro and Jobber vs ServiceTitan.
Is there a cheaper option for small teams?
Claver is one. Claver is field service software for small home-service businesses: scheduling, quotes, invoicing, payments and customer texting, with users included in one flat monthly price. Starter is $19/mo for 2 users, Crew is $39/mo for 8 and Business is $79/mo for 20.
- Where it fits. Small crews that want to see the price and start today. A dispatch board, route optimization, job costing, QuickBooks Online sync and two-way texting are on Crew. A phone system, call transcription and an AI receptionist are on Business.
- Where it's weaker. Native iOS and Android apps are coming soon, so today it runs as an installable web app. Tap to Pay is coming soon. It's a newer product with a smaller integration list than Jobber or Housecall Pro. There's no free plan. The phone system and AI receptionist are Business only, and the AI receptionist takes booking requests for you to confirm rather than booking on its own.
$1 for 14 days, then $19/mo. Crew and Business are billed at full price from day one.
