Best HVAC software for small business: five picks for maintenance and repair crews

Best HVAC software for small business: the short answer

The best HVAC software for a small shop that sells maintenance agreements is Housecall Pro Max, $329 a month for 8 users, billed monthly, as read on October 23, 2026. It lists recurring service plans and route optimization.

Jobber Grow is $399 a month for up to 10 users, billed monthly with no commitment, or $299 billed annually, and Grow is where Jobber's job costing starts. ServiceTitan, Workiz and FieldPulse publish no price.

Five HVAC tools and what each costs a small shop

Jobber says its subscription prices exclude sales tax where applicable.

Jobber Grow is $299 a month for 5 users and $499 for 15, billed monthly with no commitment. Housecall Pro lists $35 a month for each user past the 8 on Max.

Maintenance agreements and recurring service

Housecall Pro lists recurring service plans on Max for maintenance agreements. Workiz lists service plans and inventory management on Ultimate only. Jobber handles maintenance with recurring jobs: its HVAC page says recurring maintenance jobs are scheduled and invoiced, and a recurring job can bill once a month or after each visit.

Jobber's HVAC page also says service packages are built with optional line items, which start on Grow. Job costing starts on Grow at Jobber, while Housecall Pro lists it from Basic.

Routes, GPS and technicians in the field

At Jobber, routing and GPS tracking start on Connect, and real-time vehicle tracking needs a tracking device from a fleet partner. Technicians see daily jobs, client details, notes and directions in the iOS and Android app. Jobber's help says the app shows the schedule read-only without a signal, and timers need a connection.

Housecall Pro lists employee GPS by phone with no hardware on Essentials, and route optimization on Max. Housecall Pro vs ServiceTitan compares it with the per-technician option.

Request pricing: ServiceTitan, Workiz and FieldPulse

ServiceTitan prices per technician in three packages, Starter, Essentials and The Works, each marked Request Pricing, with a demo and no trial on the page. Workiz offers Standard, Pro and Ultimate, all Request pricing, and a 7-day trial with no card.

FieldPulse is seat-based with a custom quote: you buy a set number of seats upfront for a contract term, and it offers a demo instead of a free trial.

Who should pick Housecall Pro, Jobber or a request-pricing tool

• Housecall Pro Max for maintenance agreements on a published plan; Jobber vs Housecall Pro sets the two side by side.
• Jobber Grow for a shop of up to 10 that wants job costing and recurring maintenance jobs at a published price.
• ServiceTitan or Workiz for a shop willing to price through sales; see ServiceTitan alternatives.

Jobber and Housecall Pro let an HVAC shop try them for 14 days, on Grow and Max, with no card to start. Housecall Pro's Max card carries a Book Demo button even though the trial runs on Max. FieldPulse offers a demo instead.
