FieldEdge pricing (2026): what it costs your shop

No prices anywhere on the pricing page

FieldEdge lists three plans. Select, Premier and Elite, with Premier marked Most Popular. None of the three carries a number.

Every tier ends in a Request Pricing button. We looked at the page in August 2026 and found no price, no starting-at figure and no trial offer. The sales call is the only way to find out what your shop pays.

That is a choice, not an oversight. Quote-only pricing lets a vendor set your number after they know your truck count and your revenue.

The published tier chart is still useful. It spells out which features each plan turns on and how many mobile app licenses come with it. That chart predicts your bill better than any dollar figure floating around online.

How many mobile app licenses does each tier include?

This is the number that picks your plan for you. Select includes 2 mobile app licenses. Premier includes 4. Elite includes 6.

A mobile app license is what a technician needs to work from a phone or tablet. Open the work order, add parts, collect a signature, take a card on the spot. One tech, one license.

So headcount drives the tier. Two trucks fits Select. Four trucks needs Premier. Six trucks needs Elite, or Premier with extra licenses bolted on.

FieldEdge advertises Additional Mobile App Licenses as a Premier feature, so buying more seats is clearly expected. It does not publish what one costs. Get the per-license price in writing, because that single figure is what turns your quote into a growing bill every time you hire.

Do the count before the call. Write down how many people will carry the app on a truck, then add the hires you expect next year. That gives you the plan you have to shop for.

What Select, Premier and Elite each turn on

A few of the gates matter to a growing shop.

Dispatching is Basic on Select and Advanced on Premier and Elite. Quotes are single-option on Select, and multi-option on Premier and Elite. Multi-option is what puts good, better and best in front of a customer at the kitchen table. Service Agreements follow the same split, Basic on Select and Advanced above it. Saved reports go from none on Select, to 10 on Premier, to unlimited on Elite.

Two features are missing from Select altogether. Performance and commission tracking, which you want if techs earn on what they sell. And prospect tracking, which follows a lead from first call to signed job.

Elite adds two things nobody else gets. Outbound call recording, and warehouse inventory management. The inventory module carries a catch. It needs QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise with Advanced Inventory, a separate and pricier QuickBooks product. Confirm you have it before you buy Elite for that feature.

Then there are the add-ons. Proposal Pro, MarketingEdge with two-way texting, Academy and the Consumer Management Portal are listed as Call for Pricing on Select and Premier. They are included on Elite. So the marketing tools and the fancy proposal builder are a separate negotiation unless you buy the top plan. Price them at the demo, not after you sign.

Everything else is on every tier, and this part is fair to FieldEdge. QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop both sync on all three plans. So do integrated payments, the price book with flat-rate pricing, custom forms and a named onboarding specialist. Most rivals connect to QuickBooks Online only. Deep Desktop support is what FieldEdge has that the cheaper tools do not, and you do not have to buy up to get it.

What shops report paying, and the setup fee

Nothing below is vendor-confirmed. These are reported figures from industry trackers and from owners, and we present them as a range because that is all they are.

Trackers and owner reports put FieldEdge around $100 per office user a month and around $125 per technician a month. Shops report a wider band of roughly $100 to $200 per user a month depending on plan. On top of that sits a one-time setup and implementation fee, commonly reported between $500 and $2,000. Some owners report add-on modules such as inventory or advanced reporting billed monthly on top of all of it.

Run those numbers on a real shop. Six techs at about $125 is $750. Two office people at about $100 is $200. That is roughly $950 a month, or about $11,400 a year, before the setup fee and before any add-on. At the low end of the band the same eight logins land nearer $800.

Older reports run higher, and they include the office. In 2021 a commercial mechanical contractor with 20 field people and 6 in the office shopped FieldEdge against ServiceTitan, Davisware and Aptora. He put all four in the same bracket, at roughly $30,000 to get running and $130 per user per month. Treat that as a 2021 figure for a 26-person company, not today's rate for a small shop. It does show FieldEdge has long been quoted next to the enterprise names.

Now the comparison that matters. Housecall Pro prints its prices: Basic is $59 a month, Essentials is $149 and Max is $299, all billed annually, with extra users at $35 a month. Eight people on Essentials works out to about $254 a month. Jobber Core is $29 a month billed annually with extra users at $29, so eight people is about $232 a month. All figures as of August 2026.

That is a gap of three to four times. FieldEdge is not competing with those two on price. It competes with mid-market platforms, and the QuickBooks Desktop sync is the honest reason a shop pays the difference. If your books live in Desktop and your accountant will not move, the cheaper list gets short fast. If your books are already in QuickBooks Online, that reason disappears.

What to force into the written quote, and who should shop elsewhere

You get one demo and no trial, so use the call as a pricing interview. Insist on these in writing before you sign anything.

The total monthly price for every login, office and field. The number of mobile app licenses included, and the cost of each extra one. The one-time setup and implementation fee. The contract length, the renewal terms, and how much notice you must give to stop it. The card processing rate through FieldEdge Payments, in percent and in cents per transaction. What Proposal Pro, MarketingEdge, Academy and the Consumer Management Portal each cost on your plan. And whether any module you are counting on needs a QuickBooks Enterprise upgrade you do not own yet.

A quote priced for four techs tells you nothing about the bill at eight. Get the per-license rate now, while they still want your signature.

Owners who live with it describe a tool that works and shows its age in places. One HVAC tech called it easy to navigate, with decent control for technicians. His shop tried to move to ServiceTitan and went straight back. One hvac-talk member has run it since 2005, back when it was called ESC, and points to the accounting link as the reason. Those accounts speak to fit and reliability, not to price. On price, the closest thing to a figure comes from buyers who sat through the demos. One HVAC owner who evaluated three platforms and chose FieldEdge put it at "a more manageable $150 per user" against ServiceTitan at $300 per lead tech. A shopper working the same comparison a year earlier landed in a similar place: "From what I can tell, Service Titan is $350 a user. Field Edge is around half of that, and House Call Pro is a fifth the cost or less." Both are dated, both are one buyer's read of a quote rather than an invoice, and we present them as that. What they agree on is the shape: roughly half of ServiceTitan, several times Housecall Pro.

Three shops should look elsewhere. Any shop already on QuickBooks Online, because the printed-price tools all connect there and cost a fraction as much. Any owner who wants to try software before committing, because there is no free trial and the demo is your only look. And a one or two truck operation, where the reported rates buy far more platform than the work needs.

The shop we would send here is a small to midsize HVAC, plumbing or electrical business. It runs QuickBooks Desktop, sells maintenance agreements, and has four or more techs in the field.
