ServiceM8 prices by workload rather than headcount. The free plan covers one user and 30 new jobs a month. Starter costs $29 a month with unlimited users and 50 jobs, Growing $79 for 150 jobs, Premium $149 for 500 and Premium Plus $349 for 1,500 or more. Each paid tier carries the same core feature list, so the choice is mostly about volume. That list is broad for the price: scheduling with push notifications, quotes and invoices clients open online, card payments in the app, online bookings with instant pricing, checklists, before and after photos, recurring jobs, asset tracking, digital forms and certificates, job costing and accounting sync. Customer messaging includes on the way texts with an arrival estimate, a live arrival tracker and booking reminders. The model suits a crew of five doing two jobs a day, which fits inside a low tier with every tech logged in. A high-volume pest control or cleaning route business would outgrow the job caps and should compare per-route pricing elsewhere.
Who it is for
Small trade businesses with a handful of jobs a day that want unlimited staff logins and a free starting point.
