Service Fusion is a solid office-first platform for growing shops that want dispatching, invoicing, and payments in one place, with one flat price for unlimited users. ToolBerry is a free, offline-first app built for the person in the truck, where the phone itself holds the data and you start your first job in seconds. If you want deep back-office tools and integrated payments, look at Service Fusion. If you want a free app that works with zero signal and no signup, pick ToolBerry.
| What matters in the field | ToolBerry | Service Fusion |
|---|---|---|
| Price to start | Free, no card | Paid only, from $208/mo billed annually ($245 monthly). Unlimited users on every plan, no free tier (August 2026) |
| Works with no signal | Full offline, the phone is the database | Mobile app views schedules and records, adds notes and photos, completes tasks, then syncs. Desktop needs a connection |
| Time to first job | Seconds, no signup | Demo and setup with the sales team first |
| Spanish, owner to field | English + Spanish, more on demand | No public documentation of Spanish support (checked August 2026) |
| Best fit | Small trades, the truck | Growing shops that want a full office platform |
Our app is free. Not a trial, not a teaser. Service Fusion also includes unlimited users, so headcount is not the difference here: the difference is the floor. They are paid only and start at $208 a month billed annually (August 2026), while you can run real jobs in ToolBerry today at zero cost.
ToolBerry keeps your jobs on the phone itself, so it works in a basement, a rural yard, or a metal roof with no bars. Service Fusion is web-based and needs a live connection, so when signal drops, time entries and updates can fail to save.
You download ToolBerry and you are on your first job in under a minute. No account, no sales demo, no trial clock. And because there is no account, there is no server copy of your customer list. Our App Store privacy label says "Data Not Collected" (July 2026).
Credit where it is due. Service Fusion genuinely leads on integrated payments (FusionPay) and on job costing, so you can track labor, materials, and profit per job on their higher plans. Their pricing model is also the fairest paid one in the category: one flat rate for unlimited users. If you are a growing shop that wants dispatching, invoicing, payments, and QuickBooks in one office system, Service Fusion is a strong choice.
ToolBerry is free. No card, no seat limits, no paid tiers.
Service Fusion publishes its prices and has no free plan. Starter is $208/mo billed annually ($245 monthly), Plus is $325/$382 and Pro is $533/$627, and every plan includes unlimited users. Annual billing saves about 15% and there is no long-term contract (servicefusion.com/pricing, read August 2026). Payment processing and GPS fleet tracking are add-ons.
Prices can change, so check their site for the current numbers.
Switching is the easy kind. ToolBerry is free and installs in seconds, so you can run it next to Service Fusion on the same phone and try it on a few real jobs this week. There is no migration project, nothing is locked in, and your job data lives on your device, so you own it.
No card, no signup, works offline from the first job.
