Stop paying for every user. Pay only for field technicians.
FieldPulse bills every user. Ormi bills $25 per field technician and nothing for the office. A 10-tech shop saves $4,800/year, and every office hire after today is free.
The terms, side by side
Not what the software does, but what you are agreeing to — off FieldPulse's own published terms.
Ormi is better on 9 of 101 row is a tie, and it is marked
Cheapest way in, month to month
What you actually pay in month one, without prepaying a year to get the headline rate.
Five technicians, three office staff
The shape of a real shop. Only the technicians are billable on Ormi.
Office staff and dispatchers billed
Hiring someone to run the office should not raise a software bill.
A technician who worked no jobs this month
Seasonal crews, a tech on leave, someone who left in October.
User ceiling that forces an upgrade
Hitting a ceiling means a tier jump, not a small increase.
Features held above the entry plan
The feature you need is usually one tier up from the price you were quoted.
Price published on their own site
If you cannot see the price, you cannot compare without a sales call.
Try it without talking to anyone
Twenty real jobs tells you more than a fortnight of an empty account.
Commitment
Whether leaving costs you anything.
Setup or implementation fee
A five-figure implementation is a different decision from a subscription.
Figures from vendor pricing pages, verified September 2026. Where a vendor does not publish, this says so rather than estimating, and where a price is third-party reported rather than published, it is marked as reported. Prices in this category change often; re-check before relying on any of it.
Everything Ormi ships, on the one plan
All 27 are included at $25 per active field technician. FieldPulse publishes neither a price nor a feature breakdown, so 24 of these cannot be compared until you have sat through a sales call.

What FieldPulse does better today
Built-in marketing suite
Email campaigns, reputation management, and review automation are deeper in FieldPulse. Ormi handles the essentials; they go further.
Industry-specific integrations
A broader marketplace of third-party tools. Ormi integrates with the essentials (QuickBooks, Stripe, Zapier); their catalog is wider.
Multi-location management
More mature multi-branch tooling today. We ship improvements here through 2026.
Why shops switch
Per-user pricing goes up every hire
Add a technician and FieldPulse adds another subscription fee. Add 10 — you pay 10x. Ormi stays at the free office users no matter how big the crew gets.
Feature tiers stop being generous at scale
FieldPulse gates advanced reporting, automations, and API access behind higher plans. Ormi ships every feature on the base $25 per field technician price.
Slow months should cost less, not the same
Per-user subscriptions charge full freight in winter when HVAC jobs drop 40%. Ormi just stops billing — fewer completed jobs, lower bill.
You'd rather not pay for the back office
FieldPulse bills every login. Ormi bills $25 for each technician who works jobs and nothing for dispatchers, admins or owners, so the people you hire to run the business never show up on the software bill.

FieldPulse switcher questions
How much does switching save a 10-tech shop?
FieldPulse roughly $600-800/mo for 10 users on mid-tier. Ormi = free office usersped. About $2,400-4,800/year back, plus growth no longer raises your bill.
Is FieldPulse easier to use?
Both platforms are modern and mobile-first. FieldPulse has slightly more built-in marketing tooling; Ormi has tighter pricing transparency and no tier-gating. Best way to decide: run 20 free jobs on Ormi and compare.
Do you support recurring service plans like FieldPulse?
Yes — recurring job templates, membership plans, auto-scheduling, and renewal reminders. Same level of capability on the one $25 per technician plan.
What if I have custom FieldPulse integrations?
Ormi has a public API (on the roadmap for general availability Q2). In the meantime, most integrations are covered via our Zapier connector or direct QuickBooks/Stripe links.
Does the trial need a credit card?
No. First 20 completed jobs are free, no card required. If Ormi doesn't fit, you export everything and move on — no retention games.
Comparing other platforms too?
