ContractorPlus VS SolvPro

ContractorPlus's answer

Other apps are either extremely limited or extremely expensive. Contractor+ delivers the best value at the best price.

SolvPro's answer:

Most field service software companies emphasize scheduling, dispatching, invoicing, and customer management. Those are important features, but they're also expected capabilities.

SolvPro's stronger differentiator is connecting those everyday operations to the financial outcome of each job.

ContractorPlus's answer

With Contractor+, you aren't limited or restricted. You can do everything you need to do and only pay for what you absolutely need.

SolvPro's answer:

Most field service software helps you manage jobs. SolvPro helps you manage jobs AND protect your profit.

Because being busy doesn't always mean you're making money. You can have a full schedule, crews working overtime, and invoices going out every day—and still wonder where all the money went. That's not exactly the kind of surprise you want on a Friday afternoon.

SolvPro gives contractors real-time Profit Visibility™, so you can see estimated versus actual labor, materials, and profit while the job is still happening—not weeks later when your accountant delivers the bad news.

We bring estimating, scheduling, work orders, time tracking, change orders, invoicing, and payments together in one easy-to-use platform. And with built-in English and Spanish support, your field crews and office staff can finally work together without anything getting lost in translation.

Less paperwork. Fewer surprises. More profitable jobs.

Because at the end of the day, you didn't start a business just to keep everyone busy. You started it to make money.

SolvPro — Run the Job. Protect the Profit.

ContractorPlus's answer

The founder grew up spending his summers working with his mother, a licensed general contractor in Ohio. In his 20's he started a handyman service and remodeling business to service his property management company. He discovered how property managers and general contractors and trade contractors all work together and collaborate, and was inspired to create the solution that would bring them all together.

SolvPro's answer:

SolvPro was born from a simple observation: Contractors work incredibly hard to make money, but too often, they don't know how much they're actually making until the job is over.

After more than 25 years of building software for contractors, manufacturers, and service businesses, we kept seeing the same problem. Business owners were buried in spreadsheets, paperwork, disconnected systems, and manual processes. Their crews were busy, their schedules were packed, and invoices were going out the door.

But when we asked, "How much profit did you actually make on that job?" things got quiet.

Sometimes really quiet.

The problem wasn't that these business owners didn't know how to run their businesses. They knew their trades inside and out. The problem was that their software helped them manage the work but didn't give them a clear picture of where their profit was going.

We believed contractors deserved better.

So we built SolvPro around a different idea: Profit Visibility™.

Instead of waiting until the end of a project to discover that labor ran over budget, materials cost more than expected, or unapproved changes ate away at the margin, SolvPro helps owners see what's happening while there's still time to do something about it.

We also recognized that many contractors have Spanish-speaking crews working alongside English-speaking office teams. Technology should bring those teams together, not create another communication barrier. That's why bilingual functionality became an important part of SolvPro.

Our goal was never to build the most complicated field service software on the market. Contractors already have enough complicated things to deal with. Have you seen the price of diesel lately?

We wanted to build software that makes running a field service business simpler, more organized, and more profitable.

Today, SolvPro brings estimating, scheduling, work orders, time tracking, job costing, change orders, invoicing, and payments together in one connected platform.

But our mission goes beyond managing jobs.

We want to help hardworking business owners stop wondering where their money went, make better decisions before small problems become expensive ones, and build businesses that reward all the hard work they put in.

Because after 25 years in this industry, we've learned one thing:

Being busy doesn't mean you're profitable. And finding out you lost money after the job is finished isn't a business strategy.

That's the story behind SolvPro.

Run the Job. Protect the Profit.

ContractorPlus's answer

AWS RDS, AWS EC2, AWS Elastic Search, React Native, PHP, Java, Swift

SolvPro's answer:

SolvPro is built using modern, cloud-based technologies designed to deliver a secure, scalable, and reliable field service management platform.

Our technology stack includes React Native for our mobile application, giving field technicians access to job information, time tracking, and work orders on the go—even when internet connectivity is unavailable.

We use Auth0 for authentication and identity management, Stripe Connect for payment processing, and QuickBooks Online integrations to help connect field operations with financial workflows.

But here's the important part: Our customers don't need to know React Native from a socket wrench. They just need software that works, keeps their crews connected, and helps them protect their profit.

SolvPro's answer:

SolvPro is built for small to mid-sized contractors and field service businesses that are great at getting the work done but need better visibility into whether that work is actually making money.

Our primary audience includes owners, operators, and managers of excavation, landscaping, janitorial, construction, and other trade service businesses, typically managing 3–50 field employees or multiple crews.

These are hardworking business owners who are juggling estimates, scheduling, employees, materials, customer expectations, and invoices—often while wondering why their bank account doesn't reflect how busy everyone is.

Sound familiar? Your crews are booked solid, your phones won't stop ringing, and somehow your profit is playing hide-and-seek.

Our ideal customer has outgrown spreadsheets, whiteboards, sticky notes, or disconnected software systems. They want a simpler way to manage their operations, connect their field crews with the office, and understand job profitability in real time.

Many also manage bilingual teams, where field employees prefer Spanish and office staff work in English. SolvPro helps everyone stay on the same page without language barriers slowing things down.

Our customers aren't looking for more software to manage. They're looking for more control over their business.

Because being busy is great. Being profitable is better.

SolvPro — Run the Job. Protect the Profit.

SolvPro's answer:

SolvPro serves contractors and field service businesses that want to spend less time managing paperwork and more time running profitable jobs.

One example is JP Construction, a contractor that moved from managing operations with sticky notes and manual processes to using SolvPro for scheduling, work orders, invoicing, payments, and change orders.

Because sticky notes are great for remembering to buy milk. Running a growing construction business? Not so much.

We focus on helping businesses in industries such as excavation, landscaping, janitorial services, construction, and other skilled trades gain better control over their daily operations and job profitability.

We're not focused on having the biggest names on our customer list. We're focused on making a meaningful difference for the businesses that trust us.

Whether you're managing three employees or multiple crews, our goal is the same: help you run jobs more efficiently, understand where your money is going, and protect the profit you've worked hard to earn.

SolvPro — Run the Job. Protect the Profit.
