Workiz asks you to request pricing for its Standard, Pro and Ultimate plans, while House Fly Pro Silver is $19 a month for a four person crew.
It is November 5, 2026, Thanksgiving is 21 days away, and the Friday after it is the busiest plumbing day of the year. If you run a plumbing or service company, this is the right week to look at the software behind your schedule, because switching tools in January is a lot harder than switching before the rush. Here is an honest side by side of Workiz and House Fly Pro, including where Workiz is the better fit.
Workiz vs House Fly Pro: price side by side
Workiz shows three plans, Standard, Pro and Ultimate, and asks you to request pricing instead of posting a number. That means you have to talk to the company before you know what you will pay, and you cannot compare it on a spreadsheet the way you can with a published price. House Fly Pro posts every plan on the page, with no contracts and month to month billing.
Here is the picture as of November 1, 2026:
| Item | Workiz | House Fly Pro |
| Plans | Standard, Pro, Ultimate | Silver, Gold, Platinum |
| Published price | Request pricing | $19, $49 and $99 a month |
| Free trial | 7 days, no credit card | 14 days free |
| Annual discount | Yes, annual plans are discounted | Yearly plans give 2 months free |
| Phone, answering and marketing | Sold as add ons | Not sold as add ons |
For House Fly Pro, the first month is charged when you create the account, and the 14 free days run on top of that. Yearly plans are $199 on Silver, $499 on Gold and $999 on Platinum. Extra team members are under $5 a month each.
The Workiz details above come from its own pricing page, linked in the Sources line below. Check that page yourself before you decide, because plans change.
What a crew pays each month
Most plumbing shops are small. The owner, a couple of technicians and one person on the phone or the books. Software that charges by seat can turn a four person crew into a surprisingly big monthly bill, so it is worth doing the math with your actual headcount.
House Fly Pro is built around the crew. Silver includes the owner plus 3 team members. Gold includes the owner plus 20. Platinum includes the owner plus 50.
| Your crew | House Fly Pro plan | Monthly cost |
| Owner plus 3 team members | Silver | $19 a month |
| Owner plus up to 20 | Gold | $49 a month |
| Owner plus up to 50 | Platinum | $99 a month |
So a four person crew is $19 a month on Silver, and a 21 person company is $49 a month on Gold. Add a seasonal helper for the holiday rush and each extra team member is under $5 a month, so you are not forced into a bigger plan for one extra pair of hands.
Because Workiz asks you to request pricing, we cannot put a Workiz number in this table. Ask for a written quote for your exact crew size, and ask what is included at that price, then compare it to the table above.
What each one includes
What House Fly Pro includes
House Fly Pro is software only. It does not send you customers or jobs, and it is not a lead service. It runs the work you already have. Silver covers the daily basics:
- Unlimited appointments and customer chat in one inbox
- Instant quotes by text or email from your price book, with your favorites starred for faster quotes
- Invoices with a pay link, so customers pay by card, Apple Pay or PayPal
- Live scheduling and payouts to your bank, with free withdrawals any time
- On my way texts with live ETA, plus automatic appointment reminders
- Digital job checklist, photo proof of work and an SOS safety alert
- Recurring services that auto rebook and auto charge
- Payment choice per job: full up front, half up front, or on completion
- 100% of tips go to the pro
Gold adds dispatch with live GPS tracking, a dedicated House Fly agent, a booking form for your own website, QuickBooks sync, a marketing analytics dashboard, automatic review requests after each job, and a monthly business report. It also includes free transfer of your contacts and calendars from Housecall Pro or Jobber. Platinum adds company accounts with multiple service locations and site contacts, purchase orders and proposals, which matters for commercial plumbing work. The whole app and web portal also work in Spanish, which helps a lot on a bilingual crew.
What Workiz includes
Workiz is an established field service platform used by many trades. It shows three plans and sells phone, answering and marketing add ons. We will not guess at what sits inside each Workiz plan. Its pricing page is the place to confirm that, and you can ask for a written list when you request your quote.
Where Workiz is the better fit
Here is the honest part. Workiz is a good fit in two situations.
- You want phone and answering tools inside your software. Workiz sells built in phone and answering tools as add ons. If a big part of your business is calls that need a managed phone line in the same platform as your schedule, that is a real advantage, and it is not what House Fly Pro sells.
- You want an established platform across many trades. Workiz has been around as a field service platform for many trades. If your company mixes plumbing with several other trades and you want one name with that track record, it is a reasonable pick.
If your priority is a published price, a crew included in the plan, quotes and pay links that go out in under a minute, and a flat monthly cost you can plan around, House Fly Pro is built for that. We think that fits most plumbing and service companies with a crew of one to twenty, which is why we make it the first option on this page.
How to switch
Switching before Thanksgiving week sounds risky, but you can do it in a low pressure way, and a trial lets you test it on real jobs. Here is a simple plan:
- Start the free trial. Create your House Fly Pro account and use the 14 free days to run a few real jobs side by side with your current tool.
- Build your price book. Enter your flat rate plumbing jobs, like disposal clears, water heater flushes and fixture swaps, and star the ones you quote most.
- Bring your customers over. On Gold, House Fly transfers all of your contacts and calendars from Housecall Pro or Jobber. If you are leaving another tool, ask your House Fly agent how to bring your list across.
- Turn on the money tools. Set a payment choice per job, half up front for bigger repairs and on completion for small ones, so you get paid on site.
- Cut over after the rush. Once the trial jobs feel smooth, move the whole crew. There are no contracts, so you can always change your mind.
Whichever tool you pick, run the rush safely. OSHA has workplace safety guidance for small crews, the SBA offers free small business planning resources for year end budgeting, and the EPA’s WaterSense program is a useful reference when customers ask about efficient fixtures.
