    When each one is the right call

    Tradify

    Best fit. Best if you want a clean job-card and invoicing tool and don't need lead capture or AI admin.

    Gap. No built-in review requests, no AI follow-ups, lead capture is light.

    BigChange

    Best fit. Best for larger field-service operations with fleets, depots and dispatch complexity.

    Gap. Heavy onboarding, opaque pricing and overkill for a 1–25 person trades business.

    ServiceM8

    Best fit. Best for solo operators already on Apple devices who want a lightweight job app.

    Gap. Pricing in USD, US-style payments, weaker fit for UK VAT-led quoting and chasers.
