| Pricing | EnterpriseNot published — the vendor's pricing page says FieldPulse is seat-based, with a set number of seats bought upfront for the contract term and priced by what each seat needs access to, and asks you to get a custom quote. Operator AI, Engage (phone), Chat AI, Pricebook, Payments, Financing, Fleet Tracking, and Custom Forms are listed as premium add-ons with no prices. As read in early October 2026. | EnterpriseNot published on Workiz's own site — Standard, Pro, and Ultimate plans all say "request pricing", and Genius Phone, Genius Answering, and Genius Marketing are add-ons quoted separately. Third-party reviews in 2026 report base plans in the $225-$325/month range for up to five users, with the phone module around $100/month and Genius Answering around $200/month; treat those as unverified until you have a written quote. |
