Contractor Foreman

Re-read on 2026-10-12, the pricing page now sells month to month too: Standard $139, Plus $199, Pro $279 and Unlimited $399, with Basic offered on annual billing only. The quarterly option is gone. It also carries a 100 day money back guarantee alongside the 30 day trial. Annual plan prices and yearly totals re-read in Chrome on 2026-09-29 and unchanged; the page now lives at /plans/. The page advertises 20% off for paying the year. Which plan first includes each feature in feature_plans was read from the pricing page on 2026-10-12. The comparison table ticks Scheduling and Service Tickets, where dispatching lives, from Plus, Online Payments from Standard and QuickBooks Online from Plus. Whether it does estimates and a CRM, and on which plan, was read from the pricing page on 2026-10-19.

Joist

This is a quoting and invoicing app, not a field service platform: there is no dispatch board and no crew scheduling. For a solo contractor who only needs to look professional on paper it is a tenth of the price of everything else here. Which plan first includes each feature in feature_plans was read from the pricing page on 2026-10-12. The comparison table ticks QuickBooks sync on Pro, Elite and Run and leaves it blank on Basics. The $12 on the Basics card is a struck-through price the page shows only in its annual view; Basics is $10 billed monthly. Whether it does estimates and a CRM, and on which plan, was read from the pricing page on 2026-10-19.

Every figure above was read from Contractor Foreman and Joist on their own pricing pages on October 19, 2026. Nothing here ranks the two, because the ranking would be ours and you could not check it. These prices change, so check the current number with both before you buy.
