The free ServiceFusion alternative built for Houston contractors.
Houston is a massive, no-zoning sprawl where a single service area can stretch 60 miles from Katy to Kingwood. Hurricane season and Gulf humidity drive constant demand for roofing, generators, mold remediation, and HVAC, and the Hispanic homeowner market is huge for contractors who can serve it in Spanish. ServiceFusion charges $195 - $350+/month for the privilege of running your business. Clockwork costs $0/month — pay only when you collect a payment.
The real cost of ServiceFusion in Houston.
Starter at $195/month is missing progress billing, custom documents, and advanced reporting.
GPS fleet tracking is locked to the Pro tier , you pay more just to see where your trucks are.
Payment processing rates on FusionPay are negotiated case-by-case, so you never know what you will actually pay.
Onboarding takes weeks, not hours, and the learning curve is steep for non-technical techs.
Customer financing is not offered, so you lose the big-ticket jobs to contractors who can offer monthly payments.
Starter, Plus, and Pro tiers. Key features like GPS fleet tracking and progress billing are locked to higher tiers.
3.5% + 30¢ when you collect a payment. No monthly fee, no contract, no setup fee.
