Operations tools compared
From each vendor's own pages, re-checked every two months. Of 18 tools we checked, 3 of 4 that state a policy don't train AI on your content, and 7 hold SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
How to choose operations tools
Start with the job, because this category covers three different kinds of software. Field service tools such as Jobber, Housecall Pro and FieldEdge are built for trade and home service businesses. Maintenance tools such as MaintainX, UpKeep and Limble manage work orders and assets. Supply chain platforms such as Kinaxis RapidResponse, Blue Yonder and o9 Solutions focus on planning.
Then compare the options on three points:
- Pricing model: Most supply chain and enterprise-focused tools ask you to contact sales. Published starting prices run from $20/mo (MaintainX) to $80/mo (Salesforce Field Service), and MaintainX and Fiix are the two freemium options.
- Platform: If your technicians work from phones, check for mobile apps. Jobber, QuoteIQ, Fabrico, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service and Salesforce Field Service list iOS and Android, while many others list web only.
- API: If you need to connect a tool to your other systems, Fiix, MaintainX, UpKeep, Limble, Tractian and Flexport all list an API.
We haven't tested these tools, so confirm the details with each vendor.
Frequently asked questions
Are there free operations tools?
Fiix and MaintainX are freemium, and both are CMMS tools for maintenance teams. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service, QuoteIQ, Housecall Pro, Jobber and UpKeep offer free trials rather than a free plan. We didn't find a freemium option among the listed field service or supply chain tools.
How much do these tools cost?
Published starting prices are $20/mo for MaintainX, $21/mo for Jobber, $24/mo for UpKeep, $29.99/mo for QuoteIQ, $45/mo for Fiix, $50/mo for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service, $59/mo for Housecall Pro and $80/mo for Salesforce Field Service. Most of the others, including ServiceTitan, Blue Yonder and Kinaxis RapidResponse, require contacting the vendor. We don't have pricing information for Altana AI.
What should I look for in an operations tool?
First, match the tool to your work: field service, maintenance or supply chain planning. Then check whether it suits your type of business, since FieldEdge targets multi-truck HVAC, plumbing and electrical firms, while Kinaxis RapidResponse targets large manufacturers. After that, compare pricing, mobile apps and API access.
What are the alternatives to ServiceTitan?
For trade and home service businesses, the closest listed alternatives are FieldEdge, Housecall Pro, Jobber and QuoteIQ. FieldEdge also requires contacting the vendor for pricing, while Housecall Pro, Jobber and QuoteIQ publish starting prices and offer free trials. For larger field service teams, you could also compare Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service and Salesforce Field Service.
