6 Reasons Mobile Crews Pick Mobile Service Sync Over fieldd

  1. Fleet Accounts, Built In

    Fleets are where a mobile crew's steadiest money comes from, so fleet accounts are built into every plan here, with a portal on Growth and Pro.

    Each fleet carries its own pricing, its PO-required rule and net-15 or net-30 terms, applied every time it books. On Growth and Pro the fleet manager gets a portal: every vehicle, what is coming due, service requests that land with your dispatcher, and a roster they can export.

  2. Stock Counted Per Van

    Your oil, filters and chemicals ride in the vans, so that is where we count them.

    Oil, filters and parts are counted per van and per shop location, come off the van's count when the job is completed, and the tech app shows what is on board with a restock request.

  3. It Keeps Working With No Signal

    Parking garages and fleet lots lose signal. The tech app here keeps working when they do.

    The day's jobs download to the phone. In a parking garage or a dead zone, job status, inspections with photos, mark complete, line items, cash and check payments and the time clock all still work, then sync when the signal comes back, stamped with the time they were tapped.

    The tech app's schedule: the day's visits in order with times, vehicles, services, and totals
    A garage level with no bars. The job still gets done, and the office sees it at 9:12, not whenever the van drove out.
  4. Every Vehicle Gets Its Own Next-Due Date

    An oil change is never the last one. Every vehicle gets its own next-due date the moment the job closes.

    When a job closes, the vehicle gets a due date from its own interval, its fleet's default, or how often it actually comes back. Switch reminders on and the customer gets an email, plus a text if they opted in, with a link to book the next one.

  5. Paid Before You Pull Away

    QuickBooks Online sync is built in on every plan here. At fieldd it runs one way, through a Zapier account.

    Key the card in the app, charge a card on file, or text a pay link. Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo and ACH work too. Processing is 2.9% + $0.30 on standard cards and $0.20 flat per transaction for ACH, at Rainforest's published rates, and invoices sync to QuickBooks Online.

  6. One Price, Month to Month

    fieldd starts at $199 a month. A one-van operator starts here at $49.

    Core is $49 a month, Growth is $175 with two users, and Pro is $299 with five. Extra users are $29. Plate lookup, routing, the tech app, payments, reviews and QuickBooks sync are on every plan. No contract, no onboarding fee, and 14 days free without a card.

A one-van operator pays $49 a month on our Core plan, or $175 on Growth with a second user and unlimited jobs, against fieldd's $199 Start. fieldd's plans include more seats, so the gap closes for a crew of three or more.

When fieldd Might Be the Better Call

  • If you want your own branded customer app in the App Store and Google Play, fieldd builds one on its Scale plan, and we do not offer that.
  • fieldd includes 10 users on its $199 Start plan, so a crew of three or more pays less per seat there.
