Best electrical contractor software for 2026: the honest picks
Electrical contracting splits between service calls and bid or project work, and the software pick follows that split. For 1–5 electrician service shops, Housecall Pro (from $59/month annual) and Jobber (from $29/month annual, job costing at Grow, the closest thing to bid-tracking in this set) publish their prices and offer trials. For 15+ tech operations running quoted project work, ServiceTitan's stated focus includes electrical, at per-technician, quote-only pricing.

Electrical contractor software by team size
| Team size | Best pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Solo–5 electricians | Housecall Pro Essentials: $149/mo annual | Flat-rate pricing ships at this tier, so a service-call electrician can quote at the door instead of billing hourly, alongside QuickBooks sync and GPS tracking. Jobber Core ($29/mo annual, 1 user) costs less to start and adds seats at $29/mo on every plan; Connect ($99/mo annual) includes 5 users. |
| 5–15 electricians | Jobber Grow: $149/mo annual | 10 users and job costing for less than Housecall Pro MAX ($299/mo annual, 8 users), which trades that price gap for a Sales Proposal Tool and Recurring Service Plans instead of bid-margin tracking. |
| 15+ electricians | ServiceTitan: demo required, per-technician | Its stated focus names electrical alongside HVAC and plumbing, generally for larger crews running project work; pricing isn't published, so budget time for a sales call. Jobber Plus ($399/mo annual, 15 users) is the top published per-seat option if you'd rather see a number first; Service Fusion Pro ($533/mo annual, unlimited users) is the flat-rate ceiling. |
Service calls vs. project work: two different jobs for your software
Electrical contracting isn't one kind of work. A same-day service call (a tripped breaker, a code violation flagged on an inspection, a dead outlet) needs dispatch that gets a tech to the right address and a way to quote a flat price on the spot instead of writing up an hourly estimate after the fact. A panel upgrade, a rewire, or new-construction rough-in is a different problem: it gets quoted upfront, runs over days or weeks, and only pays off if the labor and materials actually come in under what you bid. Software built for one of those doesn't automatically cover the other. Housecall Pro's flat-rate pricing, which ships at Essentials, is built for the first case: pricing a service call consistently, tech to tech. Jobber's job costing, which ships at Grow along with optional line items for mid-job upsells, is built for the second: tracking what a bid actually cost against what it billed. Worth stating plainly: none of the vendors in this comparison publish named features for permit tracking or panel-schedule management. If that's specifically what you're shopping for, you won't find it documented here, electrical-focused platform or not.
Housecall Pro for electrical contractors
Search "Housecall Pro electrician software" and here's the honest answer: it's a general home-services platform, not electrical-specific software: electrical contractors are one of several trades it serves alongside HVAC, plumbing, and cleaning. What matters for an electrical shop sits in the tiers. Basic starts at $59/month annual for 1 user. Essentials ($149/month annual, 5 users) adds QuickBooks (Online & Desktop), employee GPS tracking, flat-rate pricing, checklists, commissions: the flat-rate pricing is the piece that matters most for a shop billing service calls at the door rather than by the hour. MAX ($299/month annual, 8 users) adds advanced custom reporting, dedicated onboarding, Sales Proposal Tool, Recurring Service Plans: extra techs beyond that run $35/mo on MAX (not published for Basic/Essentials). The 14-day trial gives full MAX access, no card required. Rated 4.7 (2,700+) on Capterra (the largest review count of any vendor in this comparison) and 4.3 (201) on G2.

Jobber for electrical contractors
Search "Jobber electrical contractor software" and it's the same story from a different angle: a general field-service platform, not a trade specialist, with electrical crews among the businesses it serves. Its case for a growing electrical operation is a flat per-user fee: Core starts at $29/month annual for 1 user, and every plan adds each extra user at a flat $29/mo, so costs stay predictable as you add electricians. Connect ($99/month annual, 5 users) adds QuickBooks sync, automated reminders & payment collection, time tracking. Grow ($149/month annual, 10 users) adds job costing, two-way SMS, optional line items (upsells), custom automations, and job costing is the part worth pausing on: it's how you find out, after the fact, whether a bid you won actually made money once labor, materials, and subs are counted against it. The 14-day trial gives full Grow access, no card required. Rated 4.6 (1,362) on Capterra and 4.6 (478) on G2. See the full Jobber pricing breakdown or go straight to Jobber.
ServiceTitan for electrical contractors
ServiceTitan is the one platform in this comparison that names electrical, alongside HVAC and plumbing, as its stated focus (its own turf, by its own positioning), generally for larger contractors running multiple crews on a mix of service and project work. That's also where the friction starts: pricing isn't published anywhere on its site, every path leads to a demo request, and it bills per technician with no self-serve trial. Figures of $150–$500 per technician per month show up in secondary sources, but those aren't from ServiceTitan itself. Treat them as unverified, not a quote. Rated 4.4 (656) on G2, with ~325 reviews on Capterra.

The rest of the field
Three more names come up in electrical contractor software searches, each worth a mention and a caveat. Like Housecall Pro and Jobber, none of the three build electrical-specific tools: electrical is one of several trades each serves. Workiz doesn't publish base pricing (Standard and Pro both require a quote) but its automation counts (5 automations on Standard, 10 automations on Pro) suit multi-crew electrical operations that want scheduling depth without a ServiceTitan-style sales process; extra users run Standard $46–55/mo, Pro $54–65/mo, per its own FAQ, and the trial runs 7 days with no card required. Service Fusion is the one non-affiliate name here that actually publishes a price: Starter runs $208/month annual with unlimited users, a real advantage for a shop that brings on apprentices or subs for a big project, though it's demo-only with no self-serve trial. FieldPulse rates well (4.7 (351) G2, 4.6 (450) Capterra) and bundles Open API and automations into its base plan, but like ServiceTitan and Service Fusion, it's custom-quote only: no published number until you talk to sales. One name that doesn't belong on this page at all: ZenMaid is built exclusively for maid services, with nothing published for electrical work, so it's left out of every table above.

Electrical contractor software: common questions
What software do electrical contractors use?
It splits by size and by how much of the work is bid rather than dispatched. Larger electrical contractors running several crews on quoted projects often end up with ServiceTitan, whose stated focus names electrical alongside HVAC and plumbing, though its pricing is demo-only and billed per technician. Smaller and mid-size electrical shops more often run on general field-service platforms with published pricing, like Housecall Pro or Jobber, which serve electrical contractors among several trades rather than building electrical-only features. Workiz and FieldPulse also come up among crews comfortable requesting a quote before seeing a price; Service Fusion publishes flat-rate pricing (from $208/month annual, unlimited users) but sells through a demo rather than self-serve signup.
How much does electrical contractor software cost?
Published floors start at $29/month annual for Jobber Core (1 user) and $59/month annual for Housecall Pro Basic (1 user). The tiers that matter for a growing electrical shop cost more: Housecall Pro Essentials at $149/month annual (5 users) adds flat-rate pricing for service calls, and Jobber Grow at $149/month annual (10 users) adds job costing for tracking whether a bid actually made money. Past that, Service Fusion publishes flat-rate unlimited-user plans from $208/month annual, while Workiz, FieldPulse, and ServiceTitan don't publish a price at all, budget time for a demo or quote call before you know what a multi-crew operation actually costs.
Does Jobber work for electricians?
Yes, as a general field-service platform rather than electrical-specific software: electrical contractors are one of several trades it serves. Core starts at $29/month annual for 1 user, and every plan adds each extra user at a flat $29/mo. The tier worth knowing about is Grow, at $149/month annual for 10 users: it adds job costing and optional line items, which is the closest thing to bid-tracking anywhere in this comparison: useful once you're running enough panel upgrades and rewires to need to know which quotes were actually profitable. The 14-day trial gives full Grow access, no card required. See the Jobber vs. Housecall Pro breakdown for electrical contractors or the full Jobber pricing page.
