CompanyCam documents the job. It doesn’t quote it, invoice it, schedule it, or answer the phone when a lead calls. This guide breaks down what each platform actually does, what CompanyCam’s newly restructured plans cost in 2026, and why most contractors end up paying for two subscriptions when one all-in-one CRM would do the job for less.
Quick answer: CompanyCam is a dedicated photo and video documentation tool for contractors — it has no quoting, invoicing, scheduling, or CRM features. In 2026, CompanyCam restructured its plans into Core, Crew, and Scale, starting around $63/month billed annually for a single user with add-on seats at $29 each. QuoteIQ Cam ships inside a full field service CRM — quoting, invoicing, scheduling, ClientHub texting, and AI tools — starting at $29.99/month, so most contractors get photo documentation and everything else for close to what CompanyCam alone now costs.
TL;DR: CompanyCam does one job well — job-site photo and video documentation with GPS timestamps, before/after galleries, and shareable reports. It does not do estimates, invoicing, scheduling, or customer communication at any tier. Its 2026 pricing overhaul replaced the old Pro/Premium/Elite ladder with Core (1 user), Crew (3 users), and Scale (3 users) tiers, and folded AI features into Crew and above rather than gating them behind a top plan. QuoteIQ Cam covers the same core documentation needs — 4K photos, before/after editing, inspection forms, job reports — built into a CRM that also handles property measurement, two-way texting, and AI automation, starting at $29.99/month for one user with no separate photo-tool bill on top.
CompanyCam is a purpose-built photo and video documentation tool, and it’s genuinely good at that one job. Time-stamped, GPS-tagged photos land automatically in the right project, before/after galleries make proof of work easy to share, and reports turn a folder of images into something a customer can actually read. What it isn’t is a business platform. There’s no way to send an estimate, collect an invoice payment, put a job on a calendar, or text a customer back — for any of that, you need a second subscription running alongside it.
The real question isn’t “CompanyCam vs QuoteIQ Cam.” It’s whether you want to run photo documentation on one subscription and your quoting, invoicing, and scheduling on a second one — or get all of it, including the photo side, inside a single flat-rate CRM.
CompanyCam rebuilt its pricing structure in 2026. The old Pro/Premium/Elite ladder — which required 3 users on every plan, even for a solo operator — is gone. In its place: Core, Crew, and Scale, with the seat minimum dropped on the entry tier but AI features now bundled into the two higher plans instead of sold as an add-on. Here’s the current published structure.
| Plan | Users Included | Extra Seats | AI Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core | 1 user | $29/mo each | ✗ |
| Crew | 3 users | $29/mo each | ✓ |
| Scale | 3 users | $29/mo each | ✓ Unlimited AI credits |
| Enterprise | 50+ users | Custom quote | ✓ |
CompanyCam publishes list pricing on its site but does not display exact monthly figures without selecting a crew size on their calculator; third-party trackers report annual-billed rates starting near $63/month for Core. Marketing Suite (social posts, review management, Google Business Profile sync) is a paid add-on on every tier. Verify current figures at CompanyCam’s own pricing page before budgeting.
This is photo documentation only. Whatever CompanyCam tier you land on, you still need a separate CRM — Jobber, Housecall Pro, or similar — for quoting, invoicing, scheduling, and customer management. That’s a second bill, a second login, and data that lives in two places instead of one.
Every QuoteIQ plan includes quoting, invoicing, scheduling, and a customer database from the entry tier up — no add-ons required to run the basics of the business. Photo documentation via QuoteIQ Cam is included starting at Beginner.
Every plan includes a 14-day free trial. See the full pricing details for exact plan-by-plan inclusion.
Consider a 5-person pressure washing or roofing crew that runs CompanyCam for job documentation and a separate CRM — Jobber is the most common pairing — to handle quoting, invoicing, and scheduling. Compare that stack against switching everything to QuoteIQ.
Monthly Total: ~$528/mo
~$6,336/year — across five separate platforms and five separate logins.
Monthly Total: $149.99/mo
Save roughly $378/month — about $4,536/year — with everything in one platform.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual wage across construction and extraction occupations was $59,540 as of May 2025 — meaning a $4,500/year software-stack overlap is a meaningful chunk of a single crew member’s annual pay, recovered just by consolidating tools.
Figures below use CompanyCam’s Crew-tier annual rate plus per-seat add-ons stacked against a same-size Jobber plan, versus the equivalent QuoteIQ plan. Treat the CompanyCam-stack column as directional — CompanyCam’s calculator-based pricing means your exact number depends on selections made at checkout.
| Team Size | CompanyCam + CRM Stack | QuoteIQ All-Inclusive |
|---|---|---|
| Solo (1 user) | ~$63 CC Core + $49 Jobber Core = ~$112/mo | Essentials $29.99/mo |
| 3 Users | ~$129 CC Crew + $139 Jobber Connect = ~$268/mo | Beginner $74.99/mo |
| 5 Users | ~$187 CC + $199 Jobber Connect Team = ~$386/mo | Pro $149.99/mo |
| 10 Users | ~$332 CC + $399 Jobber Grow Team = ~$731/mo | Elite $299/mo |
| Unlimited | CC Enterprise (custom) + Jobber Plus $599+/mo | Max $699/mo (unlimited) |
Jobber figures verified against getjobber.com/pricing: Core $49/mo, Connect $139/mo, Grow $199/mo, Plus from $499/mo (monthly, no-commitment billing; annual and multi-year-commitment rates run lower).

These aren’t nice-to-haves. They’re tools most growing home service businesses touch daily — and none of them exist inside CompanyCam at any tier.

CompanyCam is a single-purpose tool. It’s genuinely good at photo documentation, but it’s one slice of the tech stack. You still need a full CRM to run quoting, invoicing, and scheduling — two subscriptions, two logins, two bills.
CompanyCam’s 2026 restructure dropped the 3-user minimum on Core but kept it on Crew and Scale — the tiers with AI features and most collaboration tools. QuoteIQ Essentials starts at $29.99/month for 1 user with no seat floor anywhere.
QuoteIQ Cam covers all core documentation needs — 4K photos, before/after editor, inspection forms, GPS stamping, and job reports — directly inside the CRM. No separate app or second login needed.
CompanyCam has no satellite property measurement. MapMeasure Pro is included from QuoteIQ Beginner and lets you measure properties without a site visit.
QuoteIQ’s AI tools go beyond photo captions. AI Autopilot, the AI Estimator, and Virtual Call Team are available on every plan starting at $29.99/month.
For most home service contractors, QuoteIQ replaces both CompanyCam and a separate CRM at a lower total cost — one subscription, one login, no data-sync headaches between platforms.
Sign up for a 14-day free trial and pick the plan that matches your team size — no calculator required.
Use AI Smart Import to pull your customer list in from a spreadsheet or your phone contacts with automatic column mapping.
Start capturing job photos directly inside QuoteIQ Cam — they attach to the job automatically, no separate app to open.
Once quotes, invoices, scheduling, and photos are all running inside QuoteIQ, cancel the separate photo tool and CRM subscriptions.
