ClickHome

ClickHome is a residential construction platform that connects lead handling, pre-construction, job delivery, customer communication and post-handover work. It suits builders moving beyond spreadsheets into coordinated sales and construction operations. Its breadth is valuable, but buyers must budget for separate accounting and assess whether the plan structure matches their pipeline.

Overview

Built in Perth in 2004 for Australian residential builders, ClickHome targets both growing teams and established mid- and high-volume businesses. The system follows a job from enquiry through maintenance, covering CRM, scheduling, field activity, trades and customer portals rather than focusing on a single construction function.

That end-to-end scope is its central advantage. It is less suitable as a standalone back-office system: ClickHome is not a general-ledger or accounting product, so a separate financial platform remains necessary.

Key features

The lead system gathers enquiries from websites, display homes, referrals and property portals, scores them and assigns them to consultants. Succeed extends this with sales automation, quotes and contracts, customer selections and real-estate portal integrations, creating the clearest route from prospect to signed build.

Construction coverage includes pre-construction workflows, schedules, trade coordination, call-sheets, compliance, progress claims, variations and approvals. Build supplies an iPad supervisor app, trade file packs and callups, site-compliance tools and a web app. Manage adds pre-construction, finance workflows, document compliance, maintenance and defects. Customer-facing tools include branded portals, online tenders, selections and wishlists, job updates, messaging, and maintenance or warranty requests.

Integrations listed by the maker include HubSpot through Zapier, Mailchimp, Google Ads, DocuSign, Xero and Microsoft Teams. Enterprise customers can choose ClickHome hosting, on-premise deployment or a private cloud, with direct SQL access described for on-premise installations. ClickHome Cloud uses AWS hosting; Enterprise Hosted includes managed hosting, updates, backups and monitoring.

Pricing

ClickHome Cloud offers a 30-day trial without a credit card. The Connect plan costs $100 a month as an optional Cloud add-on and provides the branded portal, tenders, selections, job messaging and maintenance requests.

Build costs $225 per job, paid once for that job’s full life, with a five-job minimum. It covers call-sheets, the iPad supervisor app, trade packs and callups, site compliance and web access. Manage is $375 per job, also one-off and subject to the five-job minimum, adding pre-construction, claims, variations, approvals, finance workflows, document compliance, maintenance and defects.

Succeed costs $550 per job on the same terms and adds lead and sales automation, quotes, contracts, selections, real-estate integrations, Zapier and cross-job scheduling. Enterprise Hosted / On Prem is custom-priced with volume-based per-build licensing and includes all modules, deployment choice, custom workflows, integrations, development and reporting. The five-job floor makes Build through Succeed harder to justify for occasional or very small operators.

Platforms

ClickHome supports Android, iOS, web, Windows, API and self-hosted deployment. Field applications are available for iPad and Windows, while ClickHome27 is described as also supporting iPhone and Android. Enterprise requirements specify Windows Server 2016 or later, Windows 10 or later client machines and iPadOS for iPad mobility. Telephone support runs 7:00am–4:00pm AWST, and requests must come from an authorised organisational contact.

Who it's for

Choose ClickHome if you are a residential builder needing one operational thread from marketing lead to defects and warranty work, particularly when trade, customer and multi-job coordination are priorities. Succeed fits builders wanting sales and construction joined together; Build suits teams focused on site execution; Manage is for those needing claims, approvals, compliance and aftercare. Look elsewhere if accounting must be native or fewer than five jobs makes per-job licensing uneconomic.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Broad residential coverage links CRM, construction, field, customer and maintenance workflows.
• Pro: Enterprise hosting choices and custom development support complex IT and reporting requirements.
• Pro: The 30-day Cloud trial requires no credit card.
• Con: General ledger and accounts require a separate financial system.
• Con: Build, Manage and Succeed each require a five-job minimum.
• Con: Support is restricted to authorised contacts during defined AWST hours.

Alternatives

Buildxact is the better starting point for buyers wanting a free plan, free trial and Android, iOS and web access, with its free tier offering five complimentary credits and AI estimating. Beam suits a very small team seeking a no-cost web plan for up to two users and five free AI estimates, though it has no free trial. BuildBook is worth considering for users who prefer a freemium Android, iOS and web product; its Solo plan is $79 a month.

Hyphen CRM is a paid Android, iOS and web CRM sold through a demo. Builder Software Tools, Konstria and Buildern are paid alternatives with Android, iOS and web coverage; Buildern’s Starter plan is $225 a month when billed annually, with two seats. BuildTools Bidding targets custom home builders and remodelers, starting at $499 a month on a 12-month commitment with guided onboarding.

Verdict

ClickHome is a strong choice for residential builders that need connected sales, construction, field, customer and maintenance workflows, especially at mid-to-high volume. Choose it for that breadth and its deployment flexibility; choose another platform when native accounting is essential or the five-job minimum makes the commercial model disproportionate to your workload.
