Honest Assessment
What Housecall Pro does that MyKit doesn't.
By design (not planned):
- — No pre-built integrations beyond core stack
- — No 24/7 phone support team
- — No native iOS/Android app (PWA instead)
- — No VoIP or caller ID integration
- — No payroll integration
- — No multi-location management
- — Updates are pull-based — you decide when to update
Coming in future releases:
- ○ SMS via Twilio
- ○ Customer-facing portal
- ○ Route optimization
- ○ Accounting sync (QuickBooks/Xero)
- ○ Parts and inventory tracking
What MyKit Does That Housecall Pro Never Will
The things no SaaS can offer.
Deploy in under an hour. Own it forever.
Fork the repo, follow the guide, and your field service app is live on your own server. Housecall Pro is a login tied to their servers. MyKit is a repo you own.
Full source code. Yours to modify.
Housecall Pro gives you a login. MyKit gives you the code. Every line. Modify any feature, add new workflows, build new integrations. No feature request queue. No vendor roadmap.
$349 once. No monthly fees, ever.
Housecall Pro charges $49+/month for as long as you use it. After 5 years that is $2,940+. MyKit is $349 total. You break even before the end of your first year.
AI quoting built in.
Housecall Pro has no AI quoting. MyKit has it built in. Photo upload, Claude AI analysis, instant quote generation. This feature alone makes MyKit different. Included in the $349.
17 lessons teaching you how it works.
The full build course is included. Understand every piece of your app. When something needs changing, you change it yourself. No support ticket. No waiting.
