Which one is for you
Pick BlueFolder if

- Skip it if you want to try it first, since the vendor offers a demo only
- Watch out: no app-store app is listed for technicians

Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need QuickBooks on the Solo plan, as it is a $20 a month add-on
- Tight if you outgrow 2, 7 or 15 users, because beyond that you go to sales
- Watch out: route optimization is $50 a month and inventory $30 on lower plans
- Watch out: card payments need a merchant services application, and the trial can't process them

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
