Most field-service software is designed and priced for teams — seats, dispatch boards, per-technician fees — and charges extra for the basics. Crewless is the opposite: one flat price for one person, with everything a solo contractor actually needs and nothing they don't.
The honest math
Other field-service software sells seats, dispatch boards, and "team" features a solo never opens — and often charges extra for the basics, like review requests. Here's the honest math for one person.
| CRM | Starts at (1 person) | Auto reviews | Built for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crewless | $29/mo flat | +$9/mo | One person |
| Jobber | from $29/mo | +$39/mo | Teams (5–10 seats) |
| Housecall Pro | from $59/mo | Basic included | Teams |
| Markate | from ~$40/mo* | +$10/mo | Teams (+$5/seat) |
| Workiz | Free up to 2 users, then ~$187/mo | Varies | Teams |
| ServiceTitan | Quote only | — | Enterprise crews |
A solo who wants automatic reviews pays $38/mo on Crewless ($29 + $9) — vs $68 on Jobber ($29 + $39) or $59 on Housecall Pro.
*Markate adds $5/employee. Figures are each company's published list pricing for a one-person setup as of June 2026 — team tiers cost more; check their sites for current pricing.
We're not cheaper because we do less — we do exactly what one person needs, and skip the crew tools you'd never open.
How each one stacks up
Each of these products is solid. The question isn't quality — it's fit. Here's an honest take on who each one is really built for.
A great product — built for growing teams. Its entry plan matches ours, but the tools a solo actually wants (automations, two-way text, review requests) live on the $99–$149 tiers built for 5–10 employees, and Reviews is a separate $39/mo add-on. One person ends up paying toward seats they won't fill.
Powerful for teams, but it starts at $59/mo for one person and is designed around dispatching a crew. The feature set is deep — which is great if you have employees to dispatch, and more than you need if it's just you.
Closest to us on price — but the à-la-carte add-ons stack up quickly (reviews +$10, lead form +$10, online booking +$10) and it's billed per employee. A solo with a few extras can end up well above the base rate.
Enterprise software for large operations — you can't even see a price without a sales call, and it runs hundreds of dollars per technician. The feature depth is impressive if you're running a multi-truck outfit. For a solo, it's overkill by a wide margin.
Common questions
Yes — for solo contractors. Jobber is a great product built for growing teams with multiple employees. If you're a one-person operation, Crewless gives you the same core tools (scheduling, estimates, invoices, payments) at a price and complexity level designed for exactly one person, not a crew of five.
No. Crewless is designed specifically for one-person field service businesses. There are no seats to buy, no dispatching screens to navigate, no "add a technician" setup — just the tools a solo operator actually uses every day.
Crewless is purpose-built to run a one-person business well — and most solo operators never need more than that. If you do hire a crew down the road, the team-focused tools at Jobber, Housecall Pro, or ServiceTitan start to make more sense. We're honest about that. Right now, if it's just you, you shouldn't be paying for seats you'll never fill.
Yes. Crewless supports CRM import so you can bring your existing client list over when you switch. Reach out to support@usecrewless.com and we'll walk you through it.
