What would your office pay?
Seat rules change the real price more than the sticker does. Pick your team size and billing to see each CRM's lowest plan that fits, priced from its own pricing page.
Lowest plan that fits the team size. Contractor Foreman offers quarterly billing instead of month to month. Taxes, add-ons and onboarding extra.
Best for: contractors who lose jobs to slow callbacks and want calls, texts and follow-ups handled in the CRM.
- No per-user fee
- No estimating or takeoffs
AttackDesk covers the CRM, phone numbers, texting, calling and AI agents. It doesn't include estimating or takeoffs, so it pairs with one of the tools above or stands alone for lead follow-up. There's no monthly fee and no per-user fee on pay as you go; you pay per use, such as 3.1¢ a text and 5.8¢ a call minute.
For general contractors, builders and remodelers
These tools run the whole job: lead, estimate, contract, schedule, change orders and final invoice. The CRM part is the front end of that chain.
