The report card
Best for commercial contractors who service buildings on contract
ServiceTrade is field service software for commercial contractors, with Select, Premium and Enterprise suites. It publishes no prices at all, so you can't compare it with anything until you've talked to sales, and the customer portal and parts tracking sit on the dearer suites.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | No price is published: each suite has a request-pricing button, so it lands in the middle by default. The listing says cost depends on how many technicians you have. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan and no free trial on record, so nothing to try before paying. |
| Features | C | Built for commercial service jobs, but the customer portal, timecards and project budgets start at Premium and parts and inventory at Enterprise. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record, and a suite to configure before the crew can use it. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web plus iPhone and Android apps, and 7 integrations are listed. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who ServiceTrade is for
- Fits if you service commercial buildings under contract and have a sales call in you
- Works for a contractor that wants parts and inventory tracked with the jobs
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want a price before talking to anyone, as none is published
- Tight if you're a small crew: customer portal and timecards start at Premium
- Skip it if you want to try it first, because no trial or free plan is listed
- Watch out: the vendor's site refused our automated reader (HTTP 403), so this card rests on the listing alone
Good to know
Good for
- Commercial mechanical, HVAC and refrigeration contractors
- Fire protection and life safety inspection companies
- Contractors who need parts and sales tools tied to service work
Worth knowing
- No prices are published: each suite (Select, Premium, Enterprise) has a request-pricing button.
- Pricing depends on the number of technicians and the suite chosen.
- Customer portal, timecards and project budgets start at Premium; parts and inventory management at Enterprise.
- The site returned an access-denied error to our automated reader, so the pricing page was read through a summary only.
Part 02 · Pricing
What it costs
Every plan, the free plan, ways to pay less and how prices have moved

No price is published: each suite has a request-pricing button, so it lands in the middle by default.

Where it stands
Its grades against its category, and whether to keep it or make your own
3/55

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 ServiceTrade you could make: job scheduling, quotes and estimates, invoicing and inventory. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 35 of the 55 other field service apps grade higher.
What you could make
- Job scheduling, quotes and estimates, invoicing and inventory: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, QuickBooks, Sage Intacct and Microsoft Dynamics 365 among them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. ServiceTrade’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.

Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from ServiceTrade's own pages on 12 November 2026. Not based on using the product, and shorter than our full reviews.
