SecureCrews vs. Workiz
Workiz is built for lead-heavy service businesses. But if you run crews, not just individual techs, you need GPS geofence tracking, subcontractor management, and dispute protection that Workiz doesn't offer.

Why contractors leave Workiz
The complaints we hear most from teams that switched, and what changes when you move.
Built for individual techs, not crews
Workiz's dispatching and scheduling is designed around individual technicians taking service calls: locksmiths, appliance repair, garage door techs. If you run multi-person crews on job sites, the workflow doesn't fit.
SecureCrews was built for crew-based operations. Assign entire crews to jobs, track each member's clock-in via GPS geofence, manage subcontractors, and verify work completion with photos, all in one workflow.
Transaction fees on every payment
Workiz Payments charges standard card processing fees on every transaction. On $50,000/month in collections, that's $1,450+ in fees, more than the software subscription itself.
SecureCrews charges $0 in transaction fees. One flat monthly subscription. You keep every dollar your clients pay you.
The free tier is barely functional
Workiz Lite is free for 2 users but severely limited. Most contractors hit the ceiling within weeks and are forced to jump to $187/month. The 7-day trial on paid plans isn't long enough to properly evaluate.
30-day free trial with full access to every feature. No credit card required. Import your data, run real jobs, and decide with experience, not pressure.
No protection when clients dispute work
Workiz doesn't offer timestamped photo evidence, GPS-verified attendance records, or any kind of dispute vault. When a client says 'your crew never showed up,' you have no proof.
The dispute vault automatically organizes GPS-verified clock-ins, timestamped job photos, and completion records. When disputes happen, you have proof.
