Field Promax is a conditional choice for small HVAC and plumbing teams that want scheduling, field work orders and QuickBooks billing connected. Its published workflow suits a crew moving from office dispatch to technician completion and invoicing. Buy only after confirming the subscription price and demonstrating the required workflow on the quoted plan.
Solo QuickBooks buyers who need a confirmed low-cost plan should look elsewhere unless Field Promax resolves its conflicting plan information. The homepage advertises QuickBooks on Light, while the pricing comparison marks Online and Desktop integration as included only on Standard and Premium. Small crews also need to watch the mobile-estimating gate, because the comparison places that feature on Premium.
This review draws on Field Promax’s published pricing, feature pages and terms, on the one customer review on G2, and on App Store ratings. Prices, plan features and terms were checked on October 10, 2026.
Field Promax bundles users into three plans. The table below preserves the annual totals from its pricing page and shows the competing monthly figures from the homepage FAQ. Prices are in USD; the billing disagreements require a written quote.
| Plan | Published monthly price | Published annual total | Included users | Gate that matters |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Light | $99 | $1,188 | 1 | Scheduling, work orders, estimates and mobile invoicing; QuickBooks on the homepage card, not the pricing table |
| Standard | $239; homepage FAQ says $299 | $2,868 | 2 to 5 | QuickBooks Online/Desktop, time tracking, recurring orders, photos and signatures |
| Premium | $319; homepage FAQ says $399 | $3,828 | 6 to 8 | Mobile estimates, service agreements, job costing, team management and Daily Dispatch |
Buyer warning: The homepage plan cards label Light, Standard and Premium as $99, $239 and $319 “annually,” while the pricing table states $1,188, $2,868 and $3,828 per year. Reserve the larger annual totals for budgeting until a written quote settles the billing period and total; neither page resolves the disagreement.
The monthly disagreement also changes the budget. Field Promax’s pricing page lists Standard at $239/month and Premium at $319/month, while its homepage FAQ lists $299/month and $399/month. Field Promax’s dispatch, estimating and QuickBooks pages also list $239/month for Standard and $319/month for Premium, so only the homepage FAQ shows $299/month and $399/month. For monthly planning, reserve the higher figures until confirmed; ask whether the lower displayed rates require annual payment.
The homepage FAQ says annual billing saves 20% on Standard and Premium, so the $239 and $319 figures may be annual-billed rates; confirm in writing.
Light merits consideration for an owner handling basic scheduling and invoices. However, Field Promax’s comparison leaves time tracking, photo documentation and signature capture blank on Light. An owner who needs documented completion should have those functions demonstrated before choosing the entry plan. The pricing comparison lists email support on Light, with phone support and live chat from Standard.
Standard is the practical candidate for a two-to-five-user service shop because the pricing comparison includes recurring orders, checklists, customer history, online booking and accounting connections. Premium becomes relevant even for a smaller crew when mobile estimates, service agreements or job costing drive the purchase. Confirm eligibility and the price for a small team buying those features.
Field Promax’s scheduling page describes a drag-and-drop dispatch board, technician notifications, job-status updates and conversion from completed work to invoices. That is a useful workflow for an office coordinating service calls throughout the day. During the demo, run through a late technician, an emergency insertion and a job that needs rescheduling.
The pricing comparison marks Daily Dispatch only on Premium and Map/Calendar View from Standard. A dispatch-led crew should confirm whether its required workflow needs Premium’s Daily Dispatch before choosing Standard.
Several distinctions matter more than the general feature list:
For maintenance contractors, Field Promax’s equipment page describes installation history, repairs, warranties, components and stored manuals. Its pricing comparison includes Equipment Tracking on Standard, while Service Agreements begins on Premium. A shop maintaining customer equipment should demonstrate both the asset record and the agreement-renewal workflow before choosing between them.
These gates make a trade-specific demonstration important. A plumber handling emergency repairs and an HVAC business selling maintenance agreements may have similar headcounts but need different subscriptions.
Field Promax’s integration page says customer and product records sync with QuickBooks, technicians record time and materials, and completed jobs generate invoices. The buying consequence is substantial: the completion action can become the billing trigger. An office that reviews charges before sending invoices should ask how that review is controlled.
Buyer warning: Field Promax’s homepage Light card includes “QuickBooks Integration,” while its pricing comparison leaves both QuickBooks Online and Desktop blank on Light and includes them on Standard and Premium. Budget provisionally for Standard if accounting sync is essential, and obtain written confirmation before buying Light for this purpose.
The vendor describes several sync rules worth testing separately:
Other connections may help reduce office entry. Field Promax’s integration page describes Xero, Stripe, Google Calendar and Mail Parser, which converts standard emails into work orders. Its pricing comparison includes Xero across all plans, Google Calendar and Stripe on Standard and Premium, and Paylocity only on Premium. Confirm Mail Parser’s plan eligibility and the exact Xero records transferred before relying on either.
Assuming five people each need an account, Standard covers that headcount under the pricing page’s user bundle. See the plan table above for the competing monthly prices. The same bundle serves two users, so the plan’s value depends on how much of its capacity and workflow the business uses.
Beyond Premium’s eight included users, the pricing page lists an additional $40 per user. Confirm the charge’s billing cadence, annual treatment and any proration before adding staff. The page does not settle whether a cheaper paid-seat option exists for adding a second user to Light, so obtain a quote for that situation.
Field Promax’s roles-and-permissions page describes Admin, Regional Manager, Team Lead, Technician and Field Assistant roles. Assistants can receive job details through SMS, and technicians can track time and progress for assistants without every assistant logging in. Ask whether assistants consume paid seats and whether office administrators count toward the bundle; app access alone does not establish the billing rule.
Feature upgrades can raise the bill before headcount does. The pricing table places mobile estimates, job costing, project management and service agreements on Premium. A five-person team needing one of those functions should price Premium from the outset, because Standard’s user allowance cannot settle its functional fit.
Field Promax’s homepage advertises no setup fees, while its terms say sales tax will be added as Field Promax deems required. Request a total covering subscription, seats, tax and any requested migration or customization work so the first invoice matches the approved scope.
Field Promax marks SMS Notifications as included across all plans on its pricing comparison. Its dispatch page describes automatic reminders to customers and technicians. A business sending frequent appointment updates should ask for included message volumes, overage rates and any carrier or registration charges; the published inclusion does not establish a usage allowance.
Payment collection also needs a separate budget. The pricing comparison includes QuickBooks Go-Payment across all plans and Stripe on Standard and Premium. Field Promax’s payment-processing addendum says Stripe and Intuit provide the processing services, with their respective agreements governing use.
Under that addendum, the contractor retains full financial and legal responsibility for processing fees, refunds, chargebacks, disputed transactions, unauthorized payments and failed syncs. Field Promax assumes zero liability for processing errors, failed payments or customer disputes. Obtain the processor’s fee schedule and demonstrate the refund workflow before moving collections into the app.
Field Promax’s payment-processing addendum also reserves the right to suspend or disconnect payment integrations for accounts that generate excessive chargebacks or violate its terms.
G2 shows an overall rating of 5.0/5 from 1 review. The Apple App Store listing for Field Promax Plus shows 3.0/5 from 2 ratings. These are very small samples, and the app-store rating supplies little context about the reasons behind those scores.
On G2, Rupinder k., March 17, 2026, praised ease of use, scheduling, dispatch and mobile job management. The reviewer also said initial setup and customization took time to understand, and advanced features needed better explanations. G2 lists the reviewer’s role as Search Engine Optimization Executive, which provides context when weighing this account for a contracting business.
This is an individual account, and public customer evidence is thin. Limited public customer information lowers the Buyer Confidence Score independently of reported problems; it leaves reliability across contractors unsettled. The practical response is to have an office user and a technician complete their normal work during the trial, including corrections and support requests.
Field Promax’s homepage offers a 14-day free trial after a demo. It places “No credit card” beside the demo request, while the terms say the account will be charged for the selected subscription at the trial’s end. Confirm when payment details are requested and the exact conversion date before registering.
Several terms affect how safely a business can evaluate the product:
The pricing page says no contract is required and month-to-month billing is available. The refund rule makes a monthly start sensible for an uncertain workflow, once the monthly price is confirmed. Paying annually puts the full paid term at risk if the business later finds an unsuitable limitation.
Data exit deserves attention too. Field Promax’s terms say it performs routine backups but makes the customer solely responsible for its data and disclaims liability for loss or corruption. The terms also allow account deletion and removal of posted content without warning, so regular exports matter. Ask for a demonstration of exporting customer records, job history and attachments before importing the full business archive.
A small service crew should shortlist Field Promax when its main problem is connecting dispatch, field completion and accounting. Standard is the provisional starting point for an office-led service workflow, while Premium needs consideration when technicians quote on-site or the business manages service agreements, according to the pricing comparison.
The purchase should depend on a written price and a successful demonstration using the intended plan. Have the vendor show a job from estimate through dispatch, offline field work, correction, invoice and payment, then verify what reaches accounting. That demonstration addresses the gaps that matter to daily work, while a written quote addresses the unresolved costs.
For a solo QuickBooks buyer seeking a confirmed low-cost subscription, the pages’ disagreement over QuickBooks on Light remains a reason to keep looking. For a crew whose workflow fits, Field Promax warrants a trial, with payment timing, cancellation and data export settled before the business commits.
Ask before you buy: where Field ProMax’s own pages disagree, checked October 2026.
Field ProMax’s own pages disagree in 6 places about price, plans, users or terms. This compares the vendor’s pages with each other as they read on the check date; the contract governs, so get each answer in writing before you sign.
A serious service-trade platform for QuickBooks-heavy, multi-truck shops, but not a low-risk fit for small crews that need public pricing or a hands-on trial.
