Work orders for small contractors
WorkOrder Software is a work order management application designed for contractors and small maintenance teams. The platform is intended to manage the entire lifecycle of a job, from the initial phone call to a closed status, on one screen. It focuses on a straightforward workflow for creating, assigning, and tracking jobs. A free forever plan is available and requires no credit card to start. The software allows users to create jobs quickly by specifying the issue, location, priority, and due date. Unassigned jobs remain visible to prevent tasks from being overlooked. Overdue jobs are automatically flagged and moved to a needs attention list. The application provides tools for generating invoices from completed jobs and converting estimates into work orders. A schedule and map view displays upcoming jobs, with drag-to-reschedule functionality available on the Pro plan. Pro technicians can use GPS check-in and out, and the application supports capturing photos, customer signatures, and a running timer on site. Alerts for overdue, due-soon, and unpaid-invoice items are delivered through the app, browser notifications, and configurable email or SMS hooks. The dashboard presents an overview of open, in progress, overdue, and completed jobs, along with revenue data on the Pro plan and a crew workload view. Users can search across jobs, customers, and invoices. Additional capabilities include setting priority levels, adding notes for access codes or parts, and managing recurring visits for service contracts through the Pro subscription. The service is offered on a month-to-month basis with no setup call required. Users retain ownership of their data and can export it in JSON or CSV format at any time.
