Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Fiix

  • Integrations, SSO, audit trail and database export are all Enterprise only, which carries no published price
  • The $75 Professional plan still excludes e signatures, failure codes and any integration
  • The $45 Basic plan excludes multi site management, purchasing and advanced analytics
  • The free plan is limited in users and withholds almost every feature beyond basic work orders
  • Assets are unlimited on every tier, so the ladder is entirely about features rather than scale

Sortly

  • Mobile app performance is slow with occasional crashes on both iOS and Android
  • Minimal advanced reporting features lacking depth and customization options
  • No native serial number tracking capability, limiting asset management functionality
  • Synchronization problems occur when reconnecting from offline mode
