Comparison
Trimsy vs Tradify — flat pricing vs per-user
Tradify is a New-Zealand-built job-management tool for trades and service businesses — quotes, jobs, timesheets and invoicing — priced per user. Trimsy is an Australian platform with the same quote → job → invoice core plus a customer booking page and e-sign agreements, at a flat monthly fee that covers the whole team.
Best fit: For pest control, cleaning and home-service teams weighing Tradify's per-user pricing — where every extra staff member adds to the bill — against a flat Trimsy subscription.

Frequently asked
Is Trimsy cheaper than Tradify?+
Usually, once you have more than one user. Tradify is priced roughly per user per month, so a 4-person crew adds up to around AU$196/mo. Trimsy's Growth plan covers the whole team at $49.99/mo flat. If you're a solo operator the gap is smaller — compare a single Tradify seat against Trimsy Essential at $24.99.
Does Tradify have a customer booking page?+
Tradify is enquiry- and job-led rather than open self-service booking. Trimsy gives your customers a booking page on your own subdomain to book and reschedule services themselves.
Can I migrate from Tradify to Trimsy?+
Yes. Tradify exports clients and job history as CSV; Trimsy imports the standard fields. We can help during a free onboarding call.
Should I stay on Tradify?+
If detailed job costing, timesheets and mature accounting sync are central to your trade, Tradify's depth may win. If you mainly want flat pricing plus customer self-booking and e-sign agreements, Trimsy is the leaner fit.
