The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Repsly every contract requires a twelve-month minimum commitment paid annually upfront, and Repsly states plainly that it offers no free trial, so a brand cannot pilot one territory cheaply before committing a years budget.; Tradify pricing is flat per user with no volume tiering, so a twenty person firm pays twenty times the headline rate and the economics get worse, not better, as you grow into the top of its stated market.
  • They diverge on capability: Repsly covers Store visit workflows, Tradify covers Quoting.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

  • A builder wants to send professionally branded quotes fast enough to be first to respond, where the win rate depends on turnaround more than on document sophistication.not Repsly

Where each one falls short

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

Repsly

  • Every contract requires a twelve-month minimum commitment paid annually upfront, and Repsly states plainly that it offers no free trial, so a brand cannot pilot one territory cheaply before committing a years budget.
  • Pricing is not published at any tier, so there is no way to compare the cost of Core against Scale, or against a competitor, without going through sales on both sides.
  • The data model assumes repeat visits to fixed retail locations, so companies whose field work is job-based or appointment-based will fight the product rather than configure it.
  • Image recognition accuracy depends on photo quality and on the product catalogue being trained for your SKUs, which means real onboarding effort and degraded results on cluttered or poorly lit shelves.
  • Cuadrilla Capital acquired Repsly in January 2025, and a private equity buyout of a mature product usually shifts investment towards retention and pricing rather than towards new capability, which is a risk if you are buying on roadmap promises.

Tradify

  • Pricing is flat per user with no volume tiering, so a twenty person firm pays twenty times the headline rate and the economics get worse, not better, as you grow into the top of its stated market.
  • The advertised per-user price excludes SMS, which is charged per message, the Instant Website add-on at roughly ten pounds a month, and Stripe card processing fees, so a Pro seat sending two hundred texts a month can cost close to double the sticker price.
  • There is no free tier and no permanently free single-user plan, so a sole trader testing the water is paying from the end of the trial.
  • Inventory and stock control are minimal: it can bundle kits and raise purchase orders but will not track stock levels on vans or in a store, which rules it out for firms carrying real parts inventory.
  • It has no service agreement, recurring maintenance contract or flat-rate pricebook functionality, so HVAC and other maintenance-contract businesses outgrow it quickly and end up moving to FieldEdge or ServiceTitan.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Repsly: Can I trial Repsly before buying?

No. Repsly states there is no free trial; it offers proof-of-concept arrangements during the sales process instead.

Tradify: How much does Tradify actually cost per month?

Around 47 US dollars per user per month on Lite, 51 on Pro and 61 on Plus, or roughly 34, 37 and 44 pounds in the UK. Multiply by every user, then add SMS and any add-ons.

Repsly: What is the minimum contract?

Twelve months, paid annually upfront by credit card, ACH or wire transfer.

Tradify: Does Tradify replace my accounting software?

No. It syncs invoices and contacts to Xero, QuickBooks Online or MYOB, and you still need one of them.

Repsly: Is Repsly a field service tool?

No. It is built for retail execution, where the unit of work is a repeat visit to a store, not a work order against an asset.

Tradify: Is there a setup or implementation fee?

No. Unlike the enterprise field service platforms there is no onboarding charge, and most firms configure it themselves.

Repsly: Who owns Repsly?

Cuadrilla Capital, which acquired the company in January 2025. Repsly was founded in Zagreb and is headquartered in Boston.

Tradify: How big a team can it handle?

It is designed for roughly one to twenty users. Beyond that the flat per-user pricing and the lack of dispatch optimisation and service agreements start to hurt.
