FieldPulse keeps its pricing behind a sales call and was built primarily for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades. QuoteIQ Elite gives roofing contractors satellite roof measurement, route optimization, AI tools, and real-time crew GPS for a published price of $299/month — no quote request required.
Published April 2026 · Updated September 2026
FieldPulse does not publish pricing and was designed primarily for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades rather than roofing. For roofing contractors specifically, QuoteIQ is the stronger fit: satellite roof measurement with MapMeasure Pro, route optimization, AI-powered estimating, and a published Elite plan at $299/month for up to 10 users. FieldPulse’s genuine advantages are built-in Wisetack financing and QuickBooks Desktop support — both real reasons some roofing contractors should stay put.
TL;DR: FieldPulse hides its pricing behind a sales call and was built primarily for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work, not roofing. QuoteIQ publishes all five plan prices on its pricing page, with roofing-specific tools built in natively: satellite roof measurement, route optimization, inspection photo documentation, and AI-assisted estimating. QuoteIQ Elite runs $299/month for up to 10 users with no per-vehicle GPS fees. FieldPulse’s real advantages — built-in Wisetack consumer financing and QuickBooks Desktop sync — are covered honestly below, along with who should stay on FieldPulse instead of switching.
FieldPulse works well enough for service-call trades like HVAC and plumbing — the ones it was designed for. But roofing is a different animal. Roofing contractors deal with multi-day tear-off-and-replace projects, insurance supplement workflows, material ordering for hundreds of squares, and crews that split across job sites every morning. Independent reviewers who have evaluated FieldPulse for roofing specifically note it lacks native support for those workflows, since the platform’s workflow engine was designed around the schedule-inspect-invoice pattern common to mechanical trades. According to the National Roofing Contractors Association, running a professional roofing business in 2026 requires precise estimating, documented safety compliance, and airtight job tracking — demands a generalist field service platform can struggle to meet out of the box.
That is exactly where QuoteIQ was built to fit. Founded by contractors Mike Vidan and Justin Rogers, QuoteIQ was designed with trades like roofing in mind from day one. MapMeasure Pro lets you measure an entire roof from satellite imagery before your truck leaves the yard. QuoteIQ Cam captures inspection photos, builds custom inspection forms, and generates AI-enhanced before-and-after marketing images on every job. Route optimization sequences your crew across storm-damage neighborhoods automatically. And QuoteIQ’s plan pricing is published in full on its pricing page — no sales call required to find out what you’ll pay.

Roofing remains one of the more in-demand construction trades: BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook data puts total roofer employment at 166,900 in 2025, projects 5% growth through 2035 (faster than the average occupation), and estimates about 12,000 openings a year as the workforce turns over. For contractors chasing that demand, the software question is simple: does your CRM slow you down in the field, or speed you up? The comparison below covers costs, features, and — honestly — the two areas where FieldPulse still has a real edge.
FieldPulse does not publish pricing on its website — you have to request a custom quote based on team size and features. QuoteIQ publishes all five plan prices directly. Here’s what each vendor actually discloses.

The honest comparison: because FieldPulse doesn’t publish a rate card, there’s no way to state a true side-by-side dollar total without contacting their sales team directly — and any number quoted here could be stale by the time you read it. What can be verified: satellite roof measurement, route optimization, customer self-quoting, and AI-powered estimating are not part of FieldPulse’s published feature list, while all four are included natively on QuoteIQ. Get FieldPulse’s current quote from their site before comparing totals.
QuoteIQ Elite is $299/month for up to 10 users, published on the website, with satellite roof measurement, route optimization, customer self-quoting, and AI estimating built in. FieldPulse requires a sales conversation to get a number at all, and several of the tools roofing crews rely on most — measurement, routing, self-quoting — are not part of what FieldPulse publishes as included.
Every plan includes a 14-day free trial with full access to the features of the chosen plan. A credit or debit card is required to start. Most roofing crews land on Elite for route optimization and InstaQuote, but here’s the full ladder.

QuoteIQ wins on features that are hard to bolt on later: satellite roof measurement, route optimization, whole-CRM AI control (55 tools), and customer self-quoting — none of which are part of FieldPulse’s published feature set. FieldPulse’s genuine, verifiable advantages are built-in Wisetack financing and QuickBooks Desktop sync, both covered honestly in the “Where FieldPulse Wins” section below.
Being transparent: here is the complete case for choosing FieldPulse over QuoteIQ. Two points — genuine product advantages, not marketing spin.
Custom workflows and job stages are more granular. FieldPulse was designed around customizable multi-stage job workflows. If your roofing operation has a complex pipeline — lead → inspection → supplement → material order → tear-off → install → final inspection → close — FieldPulse lets you build that exact sequence with custom statuses. QuoteIQ’s Pipelines & Deals module handles sales pipeline management well, but FieldPulse’s workflow engine gives more granular control over operational job stages specifically.
Wisetack consumer financing and QuickBooks Desktop sync are both built in. FieldPulse integrates directly with Wisetack, letting homeowners finance roofing projects through the platform — a real advantage for high-ticket storm-damage replacement jobs where financing at the kitchen table closes deals. FieldPulse also syncs with QuickBooks Desktop as well as QuickBooks Online. QuoteIQ does not currently offer a consumer financing integration, and its QuickBooks sync is Online-only. If your roofing business depends on either of these today, that’s a genuine reason to stay with FieldPulse.

These are paraphrased from third-party review platforms, not cherry-picked testimonials.
One verified reviewer described seeing different totals on the edit-estimate screen, the client-facing online estimate, and the exported PDF for the same job — a discrepancy serious enough to affect customer trust, not just a cosmetic display issue.
Verified Capterra Reviewer · Field Service Business Pain point: Estimate accuracy across viewsAnother reviewer said permission settings were too restrictive to let team managers create forms on their own, and found the Operator AI feature less accurate in practice than the marketing suggested.
Verified Capterra Reviewer · Consumer Services Pain point: Permissions and AI accuracyAn independent review noted that FieldPulse is not purpose-built for roofing: multi-day jobs, material ordering, and subcontractor coordination are workflows the platform was not designed around, since it targets HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades primarily.
Independent Third-Party Review Pain point: Roofing-specific workflows missing4.7 stars across 4,100+ verified reviews on the App Store and Google Play.
“I recently started up a roof and gutter cleaning business and this app has everything in one place. I can send estimates over the phone without even going to the house. It saves me time, and time is money.”

Mike Vidan built QuoteIQ after running his own service business and experiencing firsthand the frustration of software that wasn’t built for fieldwork. His approach to roofing software is simple: if a contractor needs to leave the app to do something — measure a roof, track a truck, send a review request — it should be built in natively. That philosophy drove the development of MapMeasure Pro, which lets roofing contractors measure roof planes from satellite imagery without a separate measurement-service subscription. Mike works directly with roofing contractors to identify workflow gaps and build features that eliminate them.
Read Mike’s insights →Justin Rogers brings deep experience in field service operations and business growth strategy to QuoteIQ. His focus is on making sure every feature actually works the way a roofing contractor needs it to work in the field — not just in a demo. Justin was instrumental in building AI Autopilot, which gives roofing contractors natural-language control over their entire CRM across 55 integrated tools. Instead of tapping through a dozen screens to reschedule a crew, you tell QuoteIQ what you need and it handles the rest. According to SBA guidance on managing a small business, operational efficiency is one of the biggest levers available to a growing contracting business — and that is exactly what Justin optimizes for.
Read Justin’s insights →Not every roofing contractor should switch. Here is who FieldPulse still makes sense for.
You depend on Wisetack consumer financing to close high-ticket roofing jobs. If offering financing at the kitchen table is a core part of your sales process, FieldPulse’s built-in Wisetack integration is a genuine advantage. QuoteIQ does not currently have a consumer financing partner.
Your operation depends on QuickBooks Desktop. FieldPulse syncs with both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop. QuoteIQ syncs with QuickBooks Online only. If migrating off Desktop isn’t an option right now, that alone is a reason to stay.
You have already built complex custom workflows in FieldPulse that are working well. If you’ve spent months configuring multi-stage job workflows — lead → inspection → supplement → approval → material order → tear-off → install → punch list → close — and they’re working, the switching cost is real. FieldPulse’s workflow engine offers more granular operational control than QuoteIQ’s Pipelines module.
The strongest reasons to stay with FieldPulse are Wisetack financing, QuickBooks Desktop sync, and pre-built custom workflows you don’t want to rebuild. All three are legitimate. Everything else — measurement, routing, GPS, AI, phone, reviews, and transparent published pricing — QuoteIQ does natively at a known, published cost.
FieldPulse does not publish pricing — you need a sales call to get a number, and that number varies by team size and add-ons.
QuoteIQ publishes all five plans on its pricing page: Essentials $29.99, Beginner $74.99, Pro $149.99, Elite $299, Max $699/month.
Satellite roof measurement, route optimization, and customer self-quoting are not part of FieldPulse’s published feature set — all three are native on QuoteIQ Elite.
FieldPulse’s genuine advantages are built-in Wisetack financing and QuickBooks Desktop sync — real reasons some contractors should stay.
QuoteIQ’s AI Autopilot spans 55 tools across 13 categories, all included in every plan’s monthly IQ Credit allotment.
Migrating data from FieldPulse to QuoteIQ takes most contractors under an hour using AI Smart Import’s automatic CSV field mapping.
QuoteIQ Elite gives your roofing crew satellite roof measurement, route optimization, real-time GPS, AI estimating, automated review requests, and a dedicated business phone — for a published $299/month. No sales call required to see the price.
