SecureCrews vs. AccuLynx
AccuLynx is the biggest name in roofing software, and the most expensive. Per-user fees, paid add-ons for every new feature, and implementation costs that can hit $5,000. If you're tired of cost creep, here's what a flat monthly fee looks like.

Why contractors leave AccuLynx
The complaints we hear most from teams that switched, and what changes when you move.
Every new feature costs extra
AccuLynx launches features as paid add-ons: SmartDocs, texting, customer portal, enterprise analytics all carry additional monthly fees. Reviewers say pricing increases annually without adding features to the base plan. The total bill creeps up every year.
Every feature is included on every plan. No add-on catalog. No surprise fees. GPS tracking, proposals, photo verification, dispute vault. All included from day one.
The mobile app doesn't work like the desktop
The most consistent complaint across Capterra, G2, and SoftwareAdvice. Field users report missing functions, slower navigation, and more friction than expected. Some contractors switched to separate photo apps because AccuLynx's field experience was too limited.
SecureCrews was built mobile-first with React Native. The crew app is a full-featured experience: clock in, upload photos, view job details, get push notifications, designed for the crew member standing on a roof, not the office admin at a desk.
Per-user fees punish you for growing
At $55-120/user/month, adding team members gets expensive fast. A 15-person team on Pro costs ~$1,050/month before add-ons. Reviewers with 2-3 users say it's hard to justify the rising cost for a small business.
Unlimited users on every plan. Add crew members, office staff, sales reps, and subcontractors without ever paying more. Your 15th user costs the same as your 1st: $0.
It only works for roofing
AccuLynx was built exclusively for roofing contractors. If you do siding, gutters, windows, or any other trade as secondary work, the platform handles it poorly. Growing beyond roofing means outgrowing AccuLynx.
SecureCrews works for every trade: roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, painting, fencing, concrete, cleaning, and more. One platform for your entire operation, even if your business diversifies.
