A dispatch-and-communications platform for home-service teams.
Workiz is a capable field-service platform with a distinctive strength: communications. Call tracking, phone integrations, and a dispatch board make it popular with multi-tech shops that book jobs over the phone all day.
As with the other team platforms, the value assumes you have a team. Solo contractors and small crews end up paying team prices for a dispatch board with one name on it. Job Assistant covers the estimate-to-payment cycle — plus bookkeeping, mileage, and taxes — at $25/month, phone-first, with no dispatcher required.
When Workiz is the better pick
Multi-tech operations — locksmiths, appliance repair, junk removal, HVAC — that live on a dispatch board and want built-in phone/call tracking.

Workiz shines for multi-tech teams that need dispatching and call tracking. A solo contractor typically uses a fraction of that while still paying team-platform prices, which is the gap Job Assistant fills at $25/month.
Is Job Assistant cheaper than Workiz?
For paid plans, generally yes — Workiz team plans climb with users and add-ons, while Job Assistant is a flat $25/month with bookkeeping, mileage, and tax tools included rather than extra.
Can I switch from Workiz to Job Assistant?
Yes. Export your customers to CSV, import them into Job Assistant, and you can send your first estimate the same day.
