QuoteIQ lists all five plan prices publicly — $29.99 to $699 a month — with estimating, invoicing, scheduling, AI and field tools included in the tier you buy. FieldPulse sells on a quote basis, so this page shows you exactly what QuoteIQ costs and gives you the checklist to price any competing platform fairly.
QuoteIQ is an all-in-one field service CRM with five published price points — Essentials at $29.99, Beginner at $74.99, Pro at $149.99, Elite at $299 and Max at $699 per month — covering 1, 2, 4, 10 and unlimited users respectively. Every plan carries a 14-day free trial with full access to the features of the plan you choose. FieldPulse quotes its pricing through a sales conversation rather than a published rate card, so a like-for-like comparison starts with getting its terms in writing. Use the twelve-question checklist further down this page to do that, then set the answers next to QuoteIQ’s published pricing.
TL;DR: QuoteIQ publishes all five plan prices — $29.99, $74.99, $149.99, $299 and $699 a month — and each tier includes a 14-day free trial with full access to the features of that plan. FieldPulse is quote-based, so the fair way to compare is to request written terms and set them beside QuoteIQ’s public card. Estimating, invoicing, scheduling, ClientHub calling and texting, MapMeasure Pro, route optimization, pipelines and EmployeeHub are plan features rather than bolt-ons. Federal data on HVAC technicians and electricians shows why crews want software that scales without per-seat surprises.
Two vendors can look similar in a feature grid and land very far apart on the invoice. The difference is usually what you were told before you signed.
QuoteIQ does not publish estimates, guesses or third-party figures for FieldPulse. FieldPulse sells through a demo and quote process, and its terms can differ by team size, trade and contract length, so any number we printed here could be wrong the day you read it. Ask FieldPulse directly for a written quote that names the base subscription, any per-user or per-vehicle charges, every optional module, the contract length, the renewal terms and how payment processing is billed. Then compare that document line by line against QuoteIQ’s published pricing page, which shows the same five numbers to every visitor.
QuoteIQ prices by plan, not per seat. Pro covers four users at $149.99, Elite covers ten at $299 and Max removes the seat cap at $699. When you compare, work out the cost at the crew size you expect in eighteen months, not the one you have today.
Ask every vendor which capabilities sit inside the subscription and which are sold alongside it. On QuoteIQ, things like inspection forms, job costing and route density are included in the tier that lists them, and the full feature index shows where each one lands.
Renewal date, notice period, data export and cancellation should all be in the quote before you sign. QuoteIQ lets every plan export its own data, and the comparison hub lists the other platforms contractors weigh against it.
No sales call required to see this table. Annual billing runs at ten times the monthly rate, which is how the two free months work.
| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Users | IQ Credits / mo | Built for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essentials | $29.99 | $299.99 | 1 | 500 | Owner-operators quoting and invoicing solo |
| Beginner | $74.99 | $749.99 | 2 | 1,500 | A second set of hands, plus measurement and photo tools |
| Pro | $149.99 | $1,499.99 | 4 | 3,000 | Small crews that need a business line and automations |
| Elite | $299 | $2,990 | 10 | 5,000 | Multi-truck operations with routing, inventory and GPS |
| Max | $699 | $6,990 | Unlimited | 8,000 | Large teams, crews and multiple businesses |
IQ Credits are the in-app currency for AI actions, and they arrive with the plan — 500 a month on Essentials up to 8,000 on Max — resetting each billing cycle with no separate AI subscription. Sending a proposal draws 100 credits and is free on the trial, Elite and Max. Property and parcel lookups draw 50, an AI AutoMeasure run draws 100, and the Virtual Call Team bills 125 credits per minute of call handling, which is why call answering is minute-limited on the lower tiers rather than open-ended. Every AI action shows its credit cost and asks for confirmation before it runs, so there is no surprise draw. Credits carry no cash value and are not refundable once consumed, and the core CRM never requires you to buy more.
This is the part most comparison pages skip. Here is where each capability lands, so you can price the tier you genuinely need rather than the one on the billboard.
All four estimate types ship here — standard, quick, good/better/best options and packages — alongside invoicing, recurring invoice subscriptions, tips at checkout, e-signatures, scheduling, the customer database, consumer financing, business calculators and full mobile and web parity. Proposals are available on every plan and draw IQ Credits per send.
Adds MapMeasure Pro satellite measurement inside estimate creation, Property Street View, Zillow Quick Access, QuoteIQ Cam with 4K storage, inspection forms, the before and after photo editor, expense tracking, contract attachments, mass invoicing, advanced business analytics and custom branding.
Adds ClientHub — a dedicated business number with two-way calling and texting synced across devices — plus event-triggered email and text automations, on-the-way texts, website contact forms, the Client Portal, job costing that subtracts labor and expenses from price automatically, the hourly rate calculator and the QuickBooks Online integration.
Adds InstaQuote self-quoting, InstaSchedule self-booking against live availability, Pipelines and Deals with probability-weighted forecasting (up to five pipelines), mass text and email campaigns, inventory management, route optimization, route density and EmployeeHub with GPS location tracking and Time Tracker Pro.
Everything in Elite plus unlimited user seats at a flat price, the Sales Team Tracker with per-rep commission percentages and year-to-date leaderboards, crew creation, tracking and scheduling with crew-level analytics and routing, unlimited pipelines, the AI Website Builder included rather than added on, four additional businesses sharing one credit pool, and priority support. Roles and permissions got a full overhaul in the August 2026 release, with calendar permissions separated out properly.
These are QuoteIQ’s own numbers only. We deliberately do not model a competitor’s total, because modelling somebody else’s undisclosed terms is guesswork dressed up as analysis.
$29.99/mo · $299.99/yr on Essentials. One user, 500 IQ Credits, every estimate type, invoicing and scheduling. For a one-truck handyman or appliance repair operation, that is the entire software line on the P&L.
$149.99/mo · $1,499.99/yr on Pro. Four users, a business phone number, automations and job costing. Divide it out and the tooling runs under $38 per person per month at full seat use — worth checking against a job-level cost model.
$299/mo · $2,990/yr on Elite. Ten users with routing, inventory, GPS and pipelines. Route optimization alone cuts drive time by 15–30%, which for a fleet burning fuel daily is the kind of saving that shows up in expense tracking within a quarter.
Software is rarely the expensive part of a service business — labor is. The Bureau of Labor Statistics puts the median annual wage for plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters at $62,970 as of May 2024, with roughly 44,000 openings projected each year through 2034. Against a payroll like that, the question is not whether a CRM costs $150 or $300 a month; it is how many billable hours it hands back. That is why GPS clock-in and clock-out, per-job profit reporting and tighter routing matter more than the sticker price on either platform. Note that QuoteIQ does not calculate overtime automatically and has no native payroll — hours export to whatever payroll system you already run.
Take this list into your FieldPulse demo, into any other demo, and into a QuoteIQ trial. QuoteIQ’s answers are printed under each question so you have a fixed reference point to compare against. Ask for the other vendor’s answers in writing.
QuoteIQ: five tiers at $29.99, $74.99, $149.99, $299 and $699 a month, listed publicly on the pricing page and on each individual plan page. Annual billing is ten times the monthly figure. If a vendor will not put its number on a public page, get it on letterhead instead.
QuoteIQ: seats are bundled — 1 on Essentials, 2 on Beginner, 4 on Pro, 10 on Elite and unlimited on Max. Adding people moves you up a tier rather than adding a line item, and mid-cycle upgrades are prorated with credits jumping immediately.
QuoteIQ: everything listed on a plan page is in that plan. The one paid extra is the AI Website Builder at $34.99 a month, which is included on Max. Optional IQ Credit top-up packs exist for heavy AI use. The feature index shows where each capability lands.
QuoteIQ: a 14-day free trial on every plan, granting full access to the features of the plan you choose — not a stripped demo and not a different tier. One trial per person, per business, per payment method, cancellable any time before it converts. Start it from the pricing page.
QuoteIQ: customers pay by credit or debit card, ACH bank transfer, Apple Pay and Google Pay online, with cash and cheque recorded in the app. Processing fees vary by method, configuration, risk profile, industry and volume, so ask any vendor — including us — for your specific rate rather than trusting a blog figure. See online payments.
QuoteIQ: consumer financing is on every plan including the trial. Affirm covers up to $30,000 a job across 3–36 months, with Klarna and Afterpay handling shorter instalment plans. The customer applies at checkout in about thirty seconds, you are paid in full upfront, and the provider carries collections and default risk.
QuoteIQ: customers own their data and export is available on all plans, not just the expensive ones. Card numbers are never stored by QuoteIQ — the processor holds them. Ask every vendor whether export is gated behind a tier, and whether it includes job history and photos or only the contact list.
QuoteIQ: AI Smart Import takes a CSV from Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan or any other CRM and maps the columns automatically, and you can pull contacts straight from your phone. A paid Done-For-You setup exists at $299.99 and $999.99 covering contact import, price book build and a one-to-one onboarding session.
QuoteIQ: iOS, Android and web run at full parity — Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge on the browser side. The app holds a 4.7 rating across 4,103 reviews. Ask any vendor which functions are office-only, because that gap is where field adoption quietly dies.
QuoteIQ: the QuickBooks Online integration arrives at Pro and syncs invoices, payments, customers and expense categories, with duplicate-sync locks and automatic customer creation before an estimate syncs. It is QuickBooks Online only. Ask whether an integration is two-way or a one-directional push.
QuoteIQ: inventory spans products, locations, suppliers, orders and transactions, and stock deducts when the invoice is paid — a deposit does not count as paid. That single rule changes your month-end reconciliation, so ask every vendor to state its deduction trigger precisely.
QuoteIQ: a help centre, video tutorials and live support on every plan, with priority support and faster response targets on Max. Ask whether support is included at your tier or sold as a package, and whether you get a named contact. Then read the comparison hub to see how contractors rate the alternatives.
Most platforms can produce a document. The difference shows up in how fast you build it standing in a driveway and how easily the customer says yes.
QuoteIQ ships four estimate types on every plan rather than one template with variations. Standard estimates handle line-item work. Quick estimates exist for the jobs where a full breakdown is overkill. Options estimates present good, better and best tiers side by side, which is the single most reliable way to raise an average ticket without raising a price. Package estimates bundle recurring service combinations. All four accept photos, notes, terms and conditions and your licence number on the PDF, and all four convert to an invoice in one tap.
The details that matter in the field are the ones nobody demos: draft mode with continuous autosave so a dead phone does not cost you an hour of work, sub-item hierarchies for parent-child line structures, a materials section that links to inventory products so pricing stays current, markup and discount controls including a single-action “mark up all”, the ability to hide individual line-item prices or all of them, and expiration dates so a quote written at last season’s material cost does not get accepted in March. E-signatures start at Essentials and customers sign on their own phone; editing an estimate after sending automatically voids the outstanding signature request. Contract attachments come in at Beginner.
A CRM cannot rescue a bad number. Before comparing subscriptions, run your actual job math: the home service business calculator hub collects the free tools, and there are trade-specific versions for lawn care, pressure washing, HVAC, concrete, drywall, fencing, flooring, insulation and foundation repair. Free invoice templates are available for contractors, HVAC, electrical, handyman and construction work if you want a paper baseline before you commit to a platform.
AI is the noisiest column in every 2026 comparison grid. Here is the honest version: three distinct tools that do genuinely different jobs, plus a handful of supporting features, all running on the IQ Credits your plan already includes.
AI Autopilot is conversational control of the whole CRM by voice or text, running 55 integrated tools across 13 categories. Real instructions look like “move all of today’s jobs to Friday and text every customer” or “invoice all of today’s completed jobs and send them”. Inside the app the interface is labelled Ask AI — same feature, different name.
AI Estimator analyses property photos, asks targeted follow-up questions and generates market-accurate line-item pricing for your local area. It is used once per new estimate, which keeps its credit cost predictable rather than open-ended.
AI CoPilot lives inside estimate and invoice creation: add services, set discounts, change tax, draft a client message, add a deposit. It offers quick-action cards plus free-form chat, and runs in either Auto Accept or Review mode depending on how much you want to check.
Around those three sit the supporting tools. The before-and-after image generator produces a realistic “after” preview from the actual site photo in roughly fifteen to twenty seconds and attaches to any estimate type or invoice — each regeneration draws credits again. The AI text generator writes professional messages in one tap inside ClientHub and text fields across the app, and AI auto-reply handles the routine inbound. The Virtual Call Team answers the phone around the clock, qualifies leads, filters spam, records and transcribes every call, and can run outbound campaigns — priced per minute through credits, so it is minute-limited at the lower tiers rather than unlimited. Automations can now be built by describing them in plain language instead of assembling them by hand, and the whole AI assistant package is included in plan pricing rather than sold as a separate subscription.
Since October 2024, the FTC’s rule on consumer reviews and testimonials (16 CFR Part 465) has prohibited creating, buying or disseminating fake reviews — explicitly including AI-generated ones — with civil penalties attached. If you are using any platform’s review tooling, including Review Multiplier, the requests must go to real customers who really used you. QuoteIQ’s own Review Multiplier ships both an instant post-payment redirect to your review page and an email and SMS review-request automation with four event triggers.
This is the half of the software that determines whether you finish six jobs or eight.
MapMeasure Pro measures square footage, roof dimensions, lawns, driveways, decks and fencing from satellite imagery inside estimate creation, with drawing tools for awkward shapes and measurements saved to the customer profile. Roof segments are auto-detected with colour-coded pitch, screenshots attach to the estimate as visual proof of scope, and a historical imagery timeline lets you scroll back through years of aerial photos of a property. Property Street View and Zillow Quick Access sit alongside it.
Route Density shows you where work clusters geographically so you can plan which zone gets which day. Route Optimization then sequences the stops within that day for minimum drive time, accounting for appointment windows and job duration, recalculating when a call comes in late. Density answers where; optimization answers in what order. Together they cut drive time by 15–30%.
QuoteIQ Cam captures or uploads photos organised by job and date, with before-and-after comparisons, annotations, custom inspection forms and job reports, unlimited 4K photo and video storage, and a customer documentation archive on the contact record. Customer-facing photo galleries and shareable job links mean the proof goes to the homeowner without a separate app.
GPS location tracking shows a live team map while people are clocked in, pauses on breaks and stops at clock-out. Clocked-out employees never appear on any map, no exceptions. Time Tracker Pro records GPS clock in and out, per-job hours and break durations with admin-only manual adjustments and a full edit history, and team communication keeps job chat in one place.
The IRS set the standard mileage rate at 70 cents per business mile for 2025, and Publication 334 is the reference for how a Schedule C service business deducts vehicle and equipment costs. Cutting 20% off a fleet’s daily drive time compounds across fuel, wear and billable capacity at once — and it is deductible mileage you no longer spend. Log it properly with expense tracking, then check the result against business analytics on revenue per employee and completion rate.
FieldPulse is widely used in the mechanical trades. QuoteIQ serves those and a wide spread of exterior and residential services, which matters if you run more than one revenue line.
On the mechanical side there are dedicated pages for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, general contracting, construction, remodelling, appliance repair, garage doors and septic services. On the exterior and residential side the same platform runs pressure washing, lawn care, roofing, painting, window cleaning, tree care, concrete, pool service, pest control and snow removal, with the full industry directory covering the rest. If your winter revenue and your summer revenue come from different trades, that breadth is not a marketing line — it is whether you run one system or two.
Federal data explains why crews are investing in scheduling and back-office capacity right now. The BLS reports median annual pay of $61,010 for HVAC mechanics and installers with employment projected to grow 11% and about 40,600 openings a year, and $62,350 for electricians across 818,700 jobs with roughly 81,000 openings annually. Meanwhile the Census Bureau’s construction spending series tracks total construction put in place at above a $2 trillion annual rate. Demand is not the constraint — hiring is. Software that lets ten people do the administrative work of fifteen is competing against a labour market, not against another subscription.
Rather than telling you what another platform does or does not have — which changes without notice — here is what QuoteIQ brings, so you can tick each row against whatever quote you are holding.
Four estimate types on every plan, e-signatures from Essentials, estimate templates, expiration dates, hidden line-item pricing, reminders and tasks, and branded proposals available on all plans through IQ Credits.
Invoicing, recurring subscriptions, Net 15/30/60/90 terms, partial payments and deposits, tips at checkout, embedded on-page checkout with no redirect, mass invoicing and consumer financing.
InstaQuote for instant self-quoting, InstaSchedule booking against live availability, the Client Portal, and Google Reserve booking from Search and Maps.
MapMeasure Pro, historical aerial imagery, roof and pitch measurement, Street View and Zillow Quick Access — measured scope before anyone drives out.

EmployeeHub, Time Tracker Pro, crews, the Sales Team Tracker and granular roles and permissions. Hours export to your existing payroll system.
