Honest differences

Where Housecall Pro is different

  • Booking on Essentials. Online booking is included on Housecall Pro Essentials. Doing Work also includes booking — call that a tie on the cell, not a DW-only win.
  • Transactional SMS. Housecall Pro lists SMS on Essentials. Doing Work includes appointment and On My Way texts by carrier SMS. It does not include a full two-way text inbox or marketing SMS. Customer texts turn on after your texting number is approved, which usually takes a few business days.
  • Native apps / Tap to Pay. Housecall Pro markets native apps and Tap to Pay. Doing Work is web-first in the browser and does not offer Tap to Pay.
