An honest comparison
A ServiceTitan alternative for small shops that don't need enterprise dispatch
ServiceTitan is built for larger home-service companies with call centres, pricebooks and dozens of trucks. A shop with three vans usually doesn't need that much machinery. Here's how the scope compares and where each one fits.
Free to start. No card, no account.

Right-sizing
The cost of tools that are bigger than the business
Enterprise platforms earn their price by replacing several tools and a few jobs. If you're a three-van shop, you might end up configuring features you'll never use, while the one thing you wanted, a clear list of today's work, is buried a few menus deep.
A smaller tool won't grow with you forever, and that's fine. Start light, export your history when you're ready to move up and spend that time on customers instead of onboarding.
- No sales call to see how it works
- No training period
- Easy to leave, your data exports to CSV

When to pick the big one
Honest reasons to choose ServiceTitan instead
You're scaling fast
A dispatch team, call booking and reporting matter once several people share the schedule all day.
You want finance in the same system
Pricebooks, financing and payments in one place are real benefits when volume is high.
You need deep reporting
Wrenchlist shows counts and filters, not margin analysis or technician scorecards.
Questions people actually ask
Is Wrenchlist a ServiceTitan replacement?
For a small shop that mainly needs to track jobs, it can be. For a company running call-centre dispatch and a pricebook, it isn't.
What does ServiceTitan cost?
It's quote-based, so we can't give you a number. Ask them directly and compare it against $0 to $19 a month here.
Can I move my data out later?
Yes. Pro exports every work order to CSV.
Are you affiliated with ServiceTitan?
No. ServiceTitan is a trademark of its owner. This page describes publicly available information and may become outdated.
