ServiceTitan ($245–$398/mo/tech) and Jobber ($169–$349/mo) penalize trade businesses for growing. A 6-technician HVAC or plumbing company bleeds $17,640–$28,650 every single year just for software licenses. Here is how SuiteCrate gives you complete operational freedom:
Never hesitate to bring on apprentices, seasonal helpers, or subbed technicians. Install once on your office LAN server, and let 5, 10, or 25 field technicians view work orders, log billable parts, and collect customer signatures on their mobile devices with zero recurring seat fees.
Stop sending single-price quotes where homeowners either say yes or shop your competitors. Present 3 clear options: Bronze Standard (Basic repair), Silver Comfort ⭐ (Efficiency upgrade — Recommended), and Gold Premium (Full replacement). Boost average ticket size by 28%.
Eliminate morning shop chaos and constant dispatch phone tag. Color-code jobs by trade specialty (HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Roofing) and technician status (En Route, In Progress, Completed). Techs pull driving directions and gate codes directly on their phones.
Most residential apps choke on commercial contracts. SuiteCrate natively includes standard AIA Document G702 Application and G703 Continuation Sheets with 10% retainage ledgers, plus statutory conditional and unconditional lien waivers for all 50 states (California §8132, Texas §53.284, Florida).
