ServiceTitan is the heavyweight of home-services software — and for large HVAC, plumbing, and electrical shops with call centers and dedicated admins, it earns its reputation. It's also quote-priced per technician, sold on annual agreements, and implemented over weeks. If you run 1–15 trucks, ServiceHQ covers scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, payments, forms, and customer texting at a flat published price — live the same day you sign up.
ServiceTitan is built — and priced — for companies with an office team: CSRs taking calls, dispatchers on big screens, managers living in dashboards. The buying process involves sales calls, a per-technician quote, an annual agreement, and a real implementation phase before your first job runs through it.
ServiceHQ is built for the owner who's also the dispatcher and often the tech. Everything you need to run the day — routes, job cards, invoices, payments, forms, texting — in one app, priced from $19 to $299 a month, flat, with a trial you start yourself in two minutes.

At the scale it's designed for, ServiceTitan is excellent: call-center workflows with call recording and booking scores, deep marketing attribution, payroll and accounting integrations, and reporting an operations team can run a 100-tech company on. If that's your company — or your two-year plan — it deserves the evaluation, budget and all.
The mismatch is when a 5-truck company pays enterprise per-tech pricing and spends weeks in implementation to use a tenth of the platform. That's the operator ServiceHQ is built for.
Sign up, import your customers (we do it for you, free), build tomorrow's route. Your techs learn the app in a ride-along — no training program, no go-live date.
$19/mo solo, $149/mo Business, $299/mo Professional with unlimited dispatcher seats. Add-ons are published too: SMS $5, Voice $50, AI Receptionist $99. No quote, no renewal negotiation.
For pest and route-based trades: station scanning, facility floor-plan device maps with live share links, chemical tracking with an EPA library, and state usage report exports.
You run (or are about to run) a large operation with a call center, dedicated dispatchers, and an ops team. You need enterprise accounting/payroll integrations and marketing attribution. You have the budget and staff to get through a real implementation and make the platform pay for itself.
You run 1–15 trucks and wear most of the hats yourself. You want the day-to-day essentials — schedule, dispatch, invoice, collect, text the customer — without enterprise pricing or a go-live project. You're in pest control or another route-based trade and want software that speaks your compliance language out of the box.
14-day free trial, no credit card, no sales call — and we migrate your data for you, free.
