The free FieldPulse alternative built for Kansas City contractors.
The Kansas City metro straddles the Missouri-Kansas state line, so many contractors hold licenses on both sides to serve Overland Park, Leawood, Lee's Summit, and the Northland. Affordable housing keeps owner-occupancy rates strong, and a mix of prewar homes in Brookside and Waldo alongside postwar ranches across Johnson County gives trades a wide variety of service work. Sewer line and basement waterproofing work stays busy thanks to aging clay tile drains and heavy thunderstorm runoff. FieldPulse charges $99 - $299+/month for the privilege of running your business. Clockwork costs $0/month — pay only when you collect a payment.
The real cost of FieldPulse in Kansas City.
The $99/month base plan is missing inventory management, advanced automations, and real reporting.
Every time you add a user, the bill climbs , scaling your team shouldn't mean scaling your software cost.
Customer financing requires a third-party integration, not a single click inside the app.
Fleet tracking only shows up on the higher tiers , you pay more just to see your own trucks.
No virtual receptionist means FieldPulse users still lose the 30-40% of calls that come in after hours.
Base plans start at $99/month but core features like inventory, timesheets, and advanced workflows live on higher tiers.
3.5% + 30¢ when you collect a payment. No monthly fee, no contract, no setup fee.
