For trade businesses on Tradify
Tradify got you off paper. It will not get you past fifteen people.
Tradify is one of the best tools in the world for a five-person trade business, and it is honest about who it is for. The problem arrives with your fourth van and your first office hire: you need dispatch logic, real reporting and a workflow only you run. We build that, and you never re-platform again.
Fieldproxy AI configures your own system around your workflows, within days, and moves your Tradify customers, sites and jobs across in less than a day.
- Built around your workflow
- Live within a day
- UK, AU and NZ deployments
We are not going to pretend Tradify is bad software. This page is for the teams it does not fit any more.

Where this comes from
Tradify's own pricing page, read 18 September 2026
The line item that actually bites
Per-user pricing with no ceiling means growth is linear cost with no change in capability. Ten people is $470 to $610 a month; at twenty-five you are paying mid-market money for small-business features.
Why teams leave
Nobody leaves Tradify over the price. They leave over what it will not do.
It is designed for small, and says so
Tradify targets one to twenty employee trade businesses. That focus is why it is good. It also means dispatch, reporting and permissions strain at exactly the point where you start needing them.
Customisation stops at the packaged fields
You can fill in what is there. You cannot add a stage to a job, branch the mobile form by job type, or build the compliance record your contracts require.
Basic dispatch and reporting
Fine for a whiteboard replacement. Not enough to run four crews across three regions with skills, drive time and SLA promises in play.

Changing your system is a conversation, not a project
Fieldproxy is custom AI field service software: dispatch, scheduling, mobile, quoting, billing, checklists, portals and role-based access, and none of it is a fixed template. Fieldproxy AI reshapes your workflows while you are still talking. Here are three things Tradify customers ask us for in week one.
You say
βOur commercial clients need a job sheet signed on site before we invoice.β
What you get
Signature capture added to those job types, invoicing gated until it is present, and the signed sheet attached to the invoice automatically.
Minutes
You say
βSplit the board by region. The Auckland crew should not see Christchurch jobs.β
What you get
Region-scoped dispatch boards and permissions, with a group view for you and nobody else.
Minutes
You say
βWe do gas certification. Every job needs the appliance, the reading and the certificate, and the council wants it in a specific format.β
What you get
A compliance record built to that format, captured on the mobile app in the field, and exportable exactly as the council asks for it.
Days
Ask your current vendor how long any one of these would take. The answer is the reason this page exists.

Who moves off Tradify, and why
Trade businesses past their fourth van
The point where per-user pricing and packaged fields both start costing real money.
Gas, electrical and fire certification
Compliance artefacts in the format the regulator wants, captured in the field, not retyped at a desk.
Multi-region crews
Separate boards, shared customers, one set of numbers that reconcile.
Maintenance contracts
Recurring scopes and SLA clocks, rather than a recurring job reminder.

Straight answers
Tradify and Fieldproxy, honestly
How much does Tradify cost?
Tradify publishes three per-user tiers in USD: Lite at $47, Pro at $51 and Plus at $61 per user per month, plus a quoted Custom plan. No setup fee, self-serve onboarding, and a 14-day trial with all features. Because every user is chargeable and there is no upper tier, a ten-person team is $470 to $610 a month while the feature set stays aimed at small teams. Read off their pricing page on 18 September 2026.
What is the best Tradify alternative for a bigger team?
Tradify's own ceiling is around fifteen to twenty employees. Above that you are choosing between a mid-market suite such as simPRO, which can do more but takes six to twelve weeks and professional-services fees to configure, and a system built to your workflow directly. Fieldproxy is the second option: custom AI field service software configured to how you run, live within a day.
We were moved to Tradify from GeoOp. Can we get our old workflow back?
Usually yes. The common complaint about that migration is that workflows were flattened into Tradify's templates and admin went up. Because we build to your process rather than into a template, we can rebuild the GeoOp workflow you actually had instead of approximating it.
Do you work in New Zealand and Australia?
Yes. We have deployments across AU and NZ and we build remotely first, so distance does not change the timeline.
Bring us the thing Tradify cannot do.
A 30-minute call on how you actually run. Fieldproxy AI configures it around your workflows, and if it cannot do the job, we will tell you.
