Fieldproxy vs the alternatives

Looking for a FieldEdge alternative?

FieldEdge is built for 10-50 employee residential service businesses. Fieldproxy is the AI-native FSM that builds itself around your operation — describe a change in plain English and our platform implements it. Think Lovable, but for field service.

Frequently asked questions

About Fieldproxy as a FieldEdge alternative.

Is Fieldproxy a good FieldEdge alternative?
Yes, particularly if you need AI Command Center — voice and chat agents for dispatch, quoting, and customer comms. Fieldproxy serves HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical and any other service vertical with custom workflows, AI dispatching, and transparent pricing.
How does Fieldproxy pricing compare to FieldEdge?
FieldEdge pricing starts at $100-$200/user/month with $2,500-$10,000 in setup fees. Fieldproxy uses transparent pricing tailored to your operation with no setup fees and a faster time-to-live (4-8 weeks → 1-3 weeks with Fieldproxy).
How long does it take to switch from FieldEdge to Fieldproxy?
Most teams switch from FieldEdge to Fieldproxy in 2-4 weeks. We provide free migration consultation, data export assistance, and a parallel-run period to minimise disruption.
Does Fieldproxy work for HVAC?
Yes. Fieldproxy is used by HVAC businesses ranging from 5 to 500+ technicians. Unlike FieldEdge, the platform isn't locked into one vertical — it adapts to your specific HVAC operation.
Can Fieldproxy replace FieldEdge for AI features?
Fieldproxy is AI-native in two specific ways FieldEdge isn't. First, the AI Command Center handles dispatching, quote follow-up, customer comms, and route optimisation through voice or chat. Second, Fieldproxy uses AI-driven customization — operators describe a workflow change in plain English and the platform builds it live. It's the closest thing to Lovable, for FSM. FieldEdge typically requires third-party AI add-ons for the first capability and has no equivalent of the second.
How quickly can I customize Fieldproxy compared to FieldEdge?
Most workflow changes in Fieldproxy take minutes — describe what you want in plain English and the platform builds it. FieldEdge typically requires either an admin's clicks across multiple config screens, or a paid professional-services engagement for anything non-trivial.
What customer support does Fieldproxy offer compared to FieldEdge?
Fieldproxy provides hands-on customer success support during onboarding plus ongoing access to our customization team. No ticket queues, no implementation fee for changes.
