Who Housecall Pro Fits
What Housecall Pro Is Built For
Housecall Pro fits a home-service company that wants scheduling, dispatching, invoicing, card payments, review requests, and marketing automation in one place, with an easy learning curve. It publishes tiered pricing, offers a free trial, and runs on iOS and Android.
What Makes ProField Different
Where ProField Goes Its Own Way
- The report is the product. ProField has ready-made checklists for common trades, or you build your own in minutes, plus an AI-written narrative, photos next to findings, on-screen signature, and a branded PDF. Housecall Pro offers checklists and photo reports from its Essentials plan; it does not market AI-written inspection reports.
- Every feature on the first subscription. ProField has one plan: $19.99/mo owner seat, $9.99/mo per tech, $10/mo per extra location. Housecall Pro gates features by tier and quotes multi-location and franchise pricing on request. See the price comparison below.
- Multiple businesses under one login. Switch between the companies you own in two taps.
- Commercial customers, automatically. Mark a customer commercial and techs see only the address — no name, phone, email, price, or invoice.
- Zero-fee payment options. Zelle or Venmo QR on every invoice next to the card link; card payments land in your own account (Stripe fee + 0.5% platform fee). Cash and check are recorded with a receipt photo.
