Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of FieldInsight you could make: job scheduling, quotes and estimates, invoicing and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
What you could make
- Job scheduling, quotes and estimates, invoicing and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Clocking in from a phone, checked against where and when.
- It plugs into other products, Xero, MYOB AccountRight and MYOB Advanced among them, and has an API.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. FieldInsight’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
