Contractor Software Comparison

There are dozens of tools claiming to help tradespeople manage their businesses. Most were built for North American markets and retrofitted for the UK. Very few handle the things that actually matter — getting paid on time, proving compliance, and protecting yourself when disputes arise.

The biggest difference between platforms isn't features — it's pricing. Most competitors charge per user per month. That means a team of 5 on Tradify costs £170/month, while the same team on Certi pays a flat £99. The gap gets worse as you grow.

Below you'll find honest, feature-by-feature comparisons so you can make an informed decision.
