Field service software for small crewsWhat Housecall Pro is
Housecall Pro is designed so a plumber can download it, set up services and take a payment the same afternoon. Scheduling, dispatch, estimates, invoicing, payments and customer messaging are all phone-first and require little training.
It is deliberately shallow on inventory and multi-location management, which is fine for the crews it targets and a ceiling for companies that grow past them.
