1 Fergus
$31/moTrade-first job management that emphasizes materials, profitability, and flexible month-to-month billing.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Materials, supplier documents, and job profitability sit close to the core workflow.
- Month-to-month billing and no lock-in make it easier to trial with a real crew.

2 GorillaDesk
$49/moRoute-based software built primarily for recurring pest, lawn, and cleaning work rather than technician-seat pricing.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Its route-based model fits recurring service businesses better than a generic per-technician subscription.
- Unlimited admin users and mobile devices are included at the displayed one-route price.
Limitations
- The advertised price is only for one route, so a multi-route business must recalculate the real total.
- Its industry focus is narrower than the general-purpose contractor platforms.
Plan Price Notes Basic $49/mo Displayed price is for one route. Pro $99/mo Displayed price is for one route. Growth $149/mo Displayed price is for one route. Pricing verified from:- GorillaDesk pricing — one-route Basic/Pro/Growth rates and included capabilities — retrieved 2026-08-10

3 Housecall Pro
$59/moPackage pricing with a set number of included users in each plan (1, 5 or 8) and a short setup curve, aimed squarely at small residential service businesses.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Publishes real prices for every tier, which is rarer in this category than it should be.
- Each package includes a set number of users (1 on Basic, 5 on Essentials, 8 on Max) at one published package price.
Limitations
- Each plan includes a set number of users, and only Max publishes an extra-user rate ($35/mo per additional user); Housecall Pro’s pricing page gives no price for adding a user to Basic or Essentials.
- Job costing and inventory are thinner than the enterprise tools in this list.
Plan Price Notes Basic $59/mo Billed annually. $79/mo on month-to-month billing. Essentials $149/mo Billed annually. $189/mo on month-to-month billing. Max $299/mo Billed annually. $329/mo on month-to-month billing. Additional users $35/mo each. 14-day free trial.
Pricing verified from:- Housecall Pro pricing page — Basic/Essentials/Max, 1/5/8 users included, $35/mo per extra Max user, 14-day trial — retrieved 2026-09-24

4 Jobber
$29/moA broad home-service platform with a strong quoting and client-communication workflow.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Quoting and client messaging are consistently the most praised part of the product.
- Scales down to a single operator without the setup burden of the enterprise tools.
Limitations
- Displayed prices are annual-prepaid for a single user; month-to-month billing is $49/$139/$199 and multi-user pricing sits behind the team-size selector rather than on the page.
- Inventory and job costing are lighter than Service Fusion or ServiceTitan.
Plan Price Notes Core $29/mo Billed annually. $49/mo on month-to-month billing. Single-user plan. Connect $99/mo Billed annually. $139/mo on month-to-month billing. Single-user plan. Grow $149/mo Billed annually. $199/mo on month-to-month billing. Single-user plan. 14-day free trial.

5 Kickserv
$60/moStraightforward packages with included-user allowances, aimed at service teams that want predictable headcount pricing.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Every paid tier publishes both its monthly price and included-user allowance.
- A 30-day trial gives a team more time to test real scheduling and dispatch workflows than most competitors allow.
Limitations
- QuickBooks Desktop requires the Run tier plus a separate monthly add-on.
- The feature set is more operations-focused than the deeper inventory and job-costing platforms.
Plan Price Notes Start $60/mo — Run $119/mo QuickBooks Desktop is a $50/month add-on. Scale $199/mo — 30-day free trial.
Pricing verified from:- Kickserv pricing — Start/Run/Scale, included users and 30-day trials — retrieved 2026-08-10

6 ServiceM8
$29/moA low-cost, job-volume-priced platform with unlimited users on every paid plan and an iOS-first field experience.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Unlimited users on paid plans makes it unusually friendly to teams with several office or part-time users.
- The $29 entry plan is tied with Jobber Core for the lowest verified paid starting price in this catalog, and a Free plan (1 user, 30 new jobs a month) sits below it for a solo operator.
Limitations
- Plan limits are based on new jobs per month, so a busy shop can outgrow a tier without adding staff.
- The full field app is optimized for Apple devices; Android users get the narrower ServiceM8 Lite app.
Plan Price Notes Starter $29/mo Unlimited users; 50 new jobs per month. Growing $79/mo Unlimited users; 150 new jobs per month. Premium $149/mo Unlimited users; 500 new jobs per month. Premium Plus $349/mo Unlimited users; 1,500+ new jobs per month. 14-day free trial.
