THE SAME SMALL-BUSINESS SCENARIO

You run the business.
Five people do the jobs.

An owner plus five employees, with client records, estimates, invoices and employee scheduling. We compare normal team packages, not solo starter prices. USD, before applicable tax; processing, onboarding, payroll and optional add-ons are excluded unless noted.

OUR PLAN

CRM Openly

One owner account + five crew members on private job links.

$39/ month

$39 subscription + $0 employee fees = $39/month.

Clients, CSV import/export, estimates, invoices, job calendar, crew invitations, check-in/out with photo proof, job messages, reusable snippets and separate businesses. Crew do not need paid logins; additional owner/manager logins are not included in this comparison.

Essentials · 6 users

Housecall Pro

$289/ month

$189 plan + $100 for a sixth user

$249/mo equivalent with annual billing, assuming the same $100 extra-seat fee.

Five employees + one owner login. Essentials includes five users; the owner needs the sixth seat.

A field-service package for scheduling, dispatch, estimates, invoices and customer communication. A reasonable mid-tier comparison—not its solo Basic plan.

Planning estimate: public pricing varies by industry and package. Confirm the additional-seat price and eligibility with Housecall Pro.

Connect · 6 users

Jobber

$228/ month

$199 five-user plan + $29 extra user

$178/mo equivalent with annual billing, assuming the same $29 extra-seat fee.

Five employees + one owner login. Connect’s five-user package needs one additional seat for this scenario.

Quotes, invoices, scheduling, job management and team time tracking, with QuickBooks Online integration. A working team plan—not its one-user Core plan.

Planning estimate: richer crew collaboration, automation and reporting may require Grow or Plus. Optional add-ons are not included.

Online Plus + Time Premium

QuickBooks

$210/ month

$140 Plus + $20 Time base + (5 × $10)

Standard monthly rates, without the introductory 50% discount.

Five employee time-tracking seats plus the included Time admin. Employees use Time; they do not each need a full accounting login.

Accounting, estimates and invoices in Online Plus, paired with employee scheduling and time tracking in Time Premium.

Not a complete field-service CRM equivalent: this bundle does not reproduce Openly’s crew invite responses, required before/after checkout proof or private job-link workflow. Payroll is extra.

Custom quote

Ask for a five-technician + owner proposal

No public, verifiable five-technician subscription total.

Request five field employees, office access, implementation and any required add-ons in the written quote.

A deeper trades-management platform with dispatching, scheduling, invoicing, mobile estimates and operational reporting.

We do not substitute an unverified per-technician estimate for an actual price. A larger operation may benefit from its additional capabilities.

Sources reviewed October 6, 2026. Housecall Pro and Jobber totals are planning estimates supported by published pricing breakdowns; their live pricing pages did not expose all selected-plan prices during review. Confirm current terms before buying. ServiceMaster is a service-company brand, not a comparable CRM, so ServiceTitan is included instead.

BUY THE TOOLS YOU’LL ACTUALLY USE

Your work. Not a seat count.

  • Five crew members or fifty: the same subscription price.
  • Clients and crew use private links, not extra paid accounts.
  • Keep your PayPal, Venmo, Zelle and Cash App payment links.
  • Try it for seven days before choosing to subscribe.

Openly is not accounting or payroll software, and does not process your client’s card payments. Choose a deeper platform if you need enterprise dispatch, inventory, payroll or specialized reporting.
