About Software for Tradies

Software for Tradies compares the software trade businesses use. Dan Edwards runs it from Brisbane and sets up the systems behind trade and service businesses: job management apps, call tracking, CRMs, and getting enquiries from Google into a quote without anyone retyping them.

Dan has worked with more than 30 local businesses on this kind of setup, so this site answers the questions that come up when a business makes the switch: what it costs, what breaks during the move, and what the team will and won’t use.

Why this site exists

Tradies ask which job management app to use all the time, and most of what turns up on Google is written by the software companies themselves or by sites that have never logged in. We wanted one place with straight answers: what each app costs once you add the extras, how long setup takes, and which one suits how your business works.

How the site is paid for

Some links earn a commission if you sign up. No software company pays to be reviewed, ranked or left out, and none of them see a review before it’s published. If you’d rather someone set the software up for you, we can put you in touch with a setup partner. Full details are on the disclosure page.
