Frequently Asked Questions

Can BuildVision handle service dispatch like ServiceTitan?

Yes! BuildVision includes service management features for dispatching, scheduling, and routing. The difference is we also handle full construction projects when you need them.

Why is ServiceTitan so much more expensive?

ServiceTitan's pricing model includes high software costs, mandatory implementation fees, required training packages, and long-term contracts. BuildVision offers transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

We're locked in a ServiceTitan contract. Can we still switch?

Many companies run both systems during transition or negotiate early exit. The savings often outweigh early termination fees. We'll help analyze your specific situation.

How long does it really take to implement BuildVision vs ServiceTitan?

BuildVision: 1 day for basic setup, 1 week for full deployment. ServiceTitan: 60-90 days minimum, often longer. Our customers are productive immediately, not months later.
