The ServiceTitan alternative for small crews
ServiceTitan is a deep, enterprise-grade platform built for large home-services operations. Simple Contractor CRM is built for the smaller crew that wants the whole bid-to-paid workflow without the enterprise weight.
Simple Contractor CRM (SCC) is a mobile-first CRM for small-to-mid trade and construction contractors that runs the full bid-to-paid workflow in one system: line-item estimates with live margin that turn into contracts, drag-and-drop scheduling, construction billing, and accounts-receivable tracking. It is currently in early access, which is why you can join the waitlist and see exactly what is real today before you commit.
ServiceTitan is one of the most established names in field-service software. It is genuinely powerful, with deep dispatching, call-booking, marketing, inventory, and reporting modules, and it is the system many large HVAC, plumbing, and electrical operations run their whole business on. None of that is in question.
The honest difference is fit. ServiceTitan publicly positions itself for companies with mature processes and bigger crews, uses quote-based enterprise pricing, and typically involves a paid implementation. SCC is for the owner-operator or small crew who wants the same end-to-end flow at a price they can see, without a sales call or a multi-week rollout.

If you run a larger operation with several technicians, a dispatch desk, and the budget for an implementation, ServiceTitan is a serious, capable platform and a fair choice. It has years of maturity, a broad feature set, and an ecosystem that smaller tools cannot match yet. We are not going to pretend otherwise.
But if you are a small-to-mid crew that just wants to bid a job, win it, schedule it, bill the draws and retainage, and track what is owed, all from your phone and without a quote-based contract, that is exactly the gap SCC is built to fill. You get real pricing up front, a small team that ships every month and takes your change requests seriously, and online payments and QuickBooks as those land.
Frequently asked
- Is Simple Contractor CRM cheaper than ServiceTitan?
- SCC is right-sized and affordable, with plans from $35/mo and pricing you can see on the site without a sales call. ServiceTitan uses quote-based enterprise pricing and typically a paid implementation, so the two are aimed at very different budgets. Check our pricing page for current SCC numbers.
- Does SCC handle construction billing like progress draws and retainage?
- Yes. Progress draws, retainage, change orders, and deposits are real today and available on every plan, not locked behind a separate construction module or a higher tier.
- Can I take card payments in SCC like I can in ServiceTitan?
- Online card payments are coming at launch. Today SCC records payments and tracks your accounts receivable so you always know what is outstanding; the card-acceptance piece is on the way.
- Is SCC ready for a large multi-technician operation?
- Not yet, and we will be honest about that. SCC is built for small-to-mid crews. If you are a large operation that needs deep dispatching, a call center, and marketing automation, ServiceTitan is the better fit today.
