ServiceTitan Alternatives for Small Shops: 8 Options With Published Prices or Shorter Commitments (2026)

ServiceTitan is built for large contractors, on quotes and contracts of a year or more. Eight alternatives sized for shops with 2 to 15 trucks, with prices and trade-offs.

9 min read

For a shop with 2 to 15 trucks, the main ServiceTitan alternatives are Housecall Pro ($189 for five users) and Jobber ($199 for five users on Connect), which publish prices and need no long contract; Service Fusion for unlimited users from $245; Kickserv on a tight budget; FieldEdge, Workiz and FieldPulse on quotes; and CrewRobin, from $99, if the gap is answering and booking calls.

More on this topic: Field service software pricing and alternatives, every guide in one place.

ServiceTitan is deep software for established contractors: payroll, commissions, memberships, call-center tools and marketing attribution. Its annual report says new customers mainly sign 12 to 36 month contracts priced per technician, with onboarding sold as a paid service. If you have a few trucks and no office team, that's often more than you'll use. Prices below were checked on each vendor's page on 30 October 2026.

Key takeaways

  • ServiceTitan publishes no prices and typically signs new customers to 12 to 36 month, auto-renewing contracts. Every alternative below except FieldEdge, Workiz and FieldPulse publishes its prices.
  • Housecall Pro, Jobber, Service Fusion and CrewRobin offer month-to-month billing with no long-term contract.
  • For a ten-person team: Jobber Connect $299, Housecall Pro $399, Service Fusion from $245, CrewRobin Crew $349 (15 seats), all monthly.
  • None of these matches ServiceTitan's payroll, commission and call-center depth. That's the trade.

Disclosure: we make CrewRobin, which competes with the tools in this post. Every figure about ServiceTitan and the alternatives comes from the vendor's own public pages (or, where we say so, a dated third-party capture of them), read on 30 October 2026 and linked at the end. Where a price isn't published, we say so rather than guess.

Why do small shops look for a ServiceTitan alternative?

  • No published price. Every package and Pro add-on is "Request Pricing".
  • Commitment. The 10-K describes contracts of typically 12 to 36 months that renew automatically and are noncancelable.
  • Onboarding. Onboarding and training are sold as professional services; the fee isn't published.
  • Scale. About 10,800 "Active Customers" (those billed over $10,000 a year) make up over 97% of its annualized billings, per the 10-K.

All the details, with quotes, are in ServiceTitan pricing.

Which ServiceTitan alternatives are worth a look?

1. Housecall Pro

Best for: Residential shops that want flat-rate pricing, service plans and financing without a contract
Price: Basic $79/month (1 user); Essentials $189 (5 users); Max $329 (8 users, +$35 each); $59, $149 and $299 billed yearly

Online booking, dispatch, estimates, invoicing, payments, consumer financing, a price book, job costing and review management on every plan; GPS, routes, flat-rate pricing and QuickBooks Online sync on Essentials; recurring service plans and route optimization on Max. No long-term contract, and a 14-day trial of Max.

Where it shines: The most complete entry plan of the tools that publish prices.

Watch out for: CSR AI call answering and the Voice phone product cost extra, and CSR AI's price isn't published.

2. Jobber

Best for: Small shops that want a polished, all-round app at a published price
Price: Core $49/month (1 user); Connect $139 to $399 and Grow $199 to $499 for 1 to 15 users; Plus $499 to $699; $29 per extra user; yearly from $29

Quoting, scheduling, invoicing, online booking, a client hub and a mobile app; QuickBooks Online sync, reminders and quote follow-ups from Connect; two-way texting and job costing from Grow. Its AI Receptionist ($29 a month) answers calls and texts 24/7, books visits and texts back callers who hang up. 14-day free trial.

Where it shines: Every price is published, the monthly plan has no commitment, and AI answering is inexpensive.

Watch out for: Costs climb with each user bracket, and two-way texting and job costing need Grow.

3. Service Fusion

Best for: Growing crews that want unlimited users at a fixed monthly price
Price: Starter $245/month; Plus $382; Pro $627, all with unlimited users; 15% off billed yearly ($208, $325, $533, paid up front)

Every plan has unlimited users and no contract requirement. ServiceCall.ai (AI answering) and GPS fleet tracking are add-ons with no published price, and the pricing page offers a demo rather than a free trial.

Where it shines: No per-user fees, which favours bigger crews.

Watch out for: The highest entry price of the tools that publish, and its AI answering is priced on request.

4. FieldEdge

Best for: HVAC shops that want service agreements and sales tools with a guided, sales-led setup
Price: Quote only (Select, Premier, Elite); no free trial

Select, Premier and Elite come with 2, 4 and 6 mobile app licenses. Premier adds multi-option quotes and advanced service agreements; Elite adds call recording, Proposal Pro and two-way marketing texts. FieldEdge says pricing "can vary" with your number of technicians and add-ons.

Where it shines: HVAC-style selling tools and service agreements.

Watch out for: No trial, no published prices, and mobile licenses capped by tier.

5. Workiz

Best for: Shops that want AI answering across calls, texts and web leads
Price: Quote only (Standard, Pro, Ultimate); Genius add-ons sold separately

Scheduling, route planning, payments, QuickBooks and a mobile app, with service plans, proposals and inventory on Ultimate. Genius Answering, sold separately, handles calls, texts, email and web forms in English and Spanish. See Workiz pricing for what its page has shown this year.

Where it shines: The broadest AI answering of the field service suites.

Watch out for: Every plan and add-on is quoted, and its pricing page changed plans and prices several times in 2026.

6. FieldPulse

Best for: Shops that want a quote built around the modules they need
Price: Quote only; seat-based

Pricing is "built around what your team needs". Optional products include Operator AI and Chat AI, a price book, payments, financing and fleet tracking; its Maverick AI assistant is included on all plans.

Where it shines: You buy the modules you need rather than a fixed tier.

Watch out for: No published price for the plan or any add-on.

7. Kickserv

Best for: Small teams on a tight budget
Price: Start $75/month (5 users); Run $149 (10 users); Scale $249 (20 users); $60, $119 and $199 billed yearly

Scheduling, estimates, invoicing and payments for small teams, with a 30-day free trial. Start lists QuickBooks Online integration, and QuickBooks Desktop is $50 a month on Run. Plans get 5% off if you process a minimum in online payments each month ($1,000 on Start).

Where it shines: The lowest published price for a five-person team.

Watch out for: We found no AI call answering or phone features on its pages.

8. CrewRobin (our product)

Best for: Shops with 2 to 15 trucks that look at ServiceTitan mainly for call booking
Price: Starter $99/month (2 seats); Pro $199 (5 seats); Crew $349 (15 seats); yearly is 10× the monthly price; free until your first 10 booked jobs, no card up front

An AI receptionist that answers every call, checks the caller's ZIP and books the job on a technician's calendar, with missed-call text-back, online booking, reminders, good-better-best quotes, invoices by text, Google review requests, a price book, maintenance plans and a dispatch board on every plan. Month to month, with no setup fee.

Where it shines: AI answering and the follow-up around each job are in the plan price.

Watch out for: No native app, fleet GPS, routing, QuickBooks or Xero sync, or financing; the receptionist speaks English only; up to 15 seats; and it's new.

When is ServiceTitan still the right choice?

  • You have CSRs or a call center and dozens of technicians, or will soon.
  • You run memberships, commissions and marketing spend that need to be tracked in one system.
  • You want payroll inside your field service software.
  • You're ready for a quote, a multi-year contract and an onboarding project.

If that's you, the alternatives above will feel small. If it isn't yet, starting smaller and moving up later is a reasonable plan. See CrewRobin vs ServiceTitan for a direct comparison.

What does leaving ServiceTitan involve?

Check your contract's end date and the notice needed to stop it renewing, since the 10-K says contracts renew automatically unless cancelled in advance. Export customers, jobs and invoices before access ends.

CrewRobin imports customers, jobs and invoices from ServiceTitan export files once, with a preview and undo. See switching from Jobber, Housecall Pro or ServiceTitan.

Frequently asked questions

What is a cheaper alternative to ServiceTitan?

For a small team, Housecall Pro ($189 a month for five users), Jobber ($199 on Connect for five users) and Kickserv ($75 for five users) all publish prices. ServiceTitan doesn't, so compare against a written quote.

Is ServiceTitan too expensive for a small HVAC company?

It depends on what you'd use. It's priced per technician on contracts of typically 12 to 36 months, and built around customers billed over $10,000 a year. A few-truck shop whose main problem is missed calls may pay for depth it doesn't need.

Which ServiceTitan alternative is best for HVAC?

Housecall Pro (flat-rate pricing on Essentials, service plans on Max) and FieldEdge (service agreements and proposals) are built with HVAC selling in mind. CrewRobin suits HVAC shops whose priority is booking calls.

Do ServiceTitan alternatives require contracts?

Housecall Pro, Service Fusion and CrewRobin say they don't; Jobber offers a no-commitment monthly plan alongside discounted 1-year and prepaid yearly options.

Can I import ServiceTitan data into CrewRobin?

Yes, customers, jobs and invoices from ServiceTitan export files, as a one-time import with a preview and undo.

Try it on your own phone line

Try the smaller option on your own calls before you sign a multi-year contract. Set up your job types and hours, make a test call, and listen to how it handles a real problem. CrewRobin is free until your first 10 booked jobs, no card up front. Start free or see pricing.
