Questions

What solar installers ask before switching

Can customers pay a large invoice online?

Yes. Customers can pay by card or bank transfer through Stripe.

Can I record warranty dates on installs?

Yes. Add a warranty date to the job and you're reminded before it expires.

How much does Tradesman cost?

Tradesman is in early access and costs less than the big field service apps. Every account gets every feature, and you can start without a credit card.

Can I move my customers over from another app?

Yes. Import customers from a CSV file, or bring your data over from Housecall Pro, Jobber, ServiceTitan, FieldEdge and more.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Tradesman runs on iPhone, Android and any web browser, so the office and the field see the same jobs.

Run your solar installation company from one place.

Setup takes about five minutes, and you can start without a credit card.
