30 platforms, tested the same way every single time.
Full platform reviews, trade-fit checks, mobile app tests, and add-on reviews, all built from real trial accounts rather than vendor demos.
Every platform, one honest review each
One review per platform, forever. Each one covers a real trial account, tested workflows, and who should not buy.
Same platform, tested per trade
A general review tells you how a platform performs overall. These check whether it actually fits a specific trade’s workflow.

iOS & Android testedWorth the extra line on your invoice?
Paid upgrades sold on top of a platform you may already use. We test whether the extra cost earns its keep.
The scoring scale, in plain terms
Every score comes from the same 8-criteria test, whether the platform is a $29-a-month solo tool or an enterprise contract.
Strong across all 8 criteria with no real weak point we could find in testing.
Solid choice with one or two areas that fall short of the very best.
Does the job for the right use case, but shop around before committing.
We have not published a platform below this line. If we test one, it will say so plainly.

Before you trust a score
How is a FieldServicesHQ review different from a vendor demo?
We open a real trial account under our own name, pay for it like a business would, and run the actual workflow. A vendor demo shows you their best-case script. We show you what we actually hit.
What does the score out of 10 actually measure?
The same 8 criteria on every review: scheduling, mobile app, invoicing, reporting, integrations, support, pricing honesty, and setup effort.
Why are there reviews for the same platform aimed at different trades?
A platform that works well for HVAC does not automatically work well for landscaping. The trade-fit reviews test against a specific trade’s actual workflow rather than repeating the general review.
Do you review the mobile app separately from the main platform?
Yes, for the most-used platforms. The mobile app is what a technician actually touches in the field, so it gets tested on both iOS and Android as its own review.
What counts as an add-on review versus a full platform review?
Add-ons are paid upgrades sold on top of a platform you likely already use. We review whether the extra cost is worth it separately from the core platform score.
