Fieldorbit

Fieldorbit is cloud software for running cleaning operations from initial quote through dispatch, attendance, customer communication and proof of completion. It suits businesses with office coordinators and multiple cleaners, while smaller operators may find its workflow broader than they need. The free tier lowers the barrier to entry, but its monthly job ceiling matters as soon as volume increases.

Overview

Fieldorbit connects the main stages of a cleaning job. Staff can create a quote, convert it into a job and assign that work to cleaners. Once the visit is complete, cleaners upload photos and notes; office staff can review those records together with a customer signature or approval before invoicing. That chain gives managers a documented hand-off when billing depends on confirming the work.

The cleaning offering is aimed at swimming-pool, window, carpet, house and commercial cleaners. Recurring jobs, customer reminders and route planning make it more than a basic booking calendar. Automated marketing campaigns, lead follow-up and a client portal extend the customer-management side, although the product’s clearest value is keeping office and field work in one system.

Key features

Scheduling and dispatch

Teams can schedule and dispatch workers, check staff availability and send assignment notifications automatically. Built-in time and attendance tracking records work coverage, while missed-shift reminders draw attention to staffing gaps. These linked tools are useful for companies coordinating several cleaners across changing schedules; a solo cleaner with occasional jobs may not benefit as much from the extra operational structure.

Quotes, jobs and completion evidence

Turning a quote into an assigned job avoids re-entering the same work as it moves from sales to delivery. Photos and notes from the field, plus customer approval or a signature, give office staff material to check before invoicing. That is a practical advantage for cleaning businesses that need evidence of what was done, not just a completed appointment status.

Customer and business administration

Lead follow-up and automated campaigns support repeat contact, while the client portal gives customers a direct point of interaction. Recurring-job support and reminders help maintain ongoing accounts. Fieldorbit also integrates with QuickBooks, Sage and Xero, with other third-party apps described as available. The helpdesk is UK-based, and 24/7 support is included. No specific security certification or compliance standard is stated.

Pricing

Fieldorbit uses a freemium model with a free trial that does not require a credit card to start.

• Basic Plan — free, billed monthly: includes 10 jobs per month, other basic features and email support. It is suitable for a very small operation validating the workflow, but the ten-job cap makes it unsuitable for a busier schedule.
• Premium Plan — $10 a month per user, billed monthly: removes the stated job limit with unlimited everything and adds email and telephone support, certificates/reports and a dedicated account manager. It fits teams ready to pay per seat for fuller operational support.
• Pro Plan — $15 a month per user, billed monthly: also lists unlimited everything, telephone and email support, certificates/reports and a dedicated account manager. The supplied plan description does not identify a feature difference from Premium, so buyers should clarify what the extra $5 per user provides.

Paid plans are recurring monthly, and per-user billing means costs rise as staff accounts are added.

Platforms

Fieldorbit is available on web, Android and iOS. The mobile apps support cleaners in the field, while browser access suits office coordination.

Who it's for

Choose Fieldorbit for a cleaning company that needs quotes, assignments, recurring work, staff availability, attendance, customer follow-up and completion evidence connected in one workflow. It is particularly relevant to swimming-pool, window, carpet, house and commercial cleaning teams with office staff overseeing field workers. A low-volume solo operator should first test whether the broader feature set justifies moving beyond a simple calendar or booking tool.

Pros and cons

• Pros: connects quoting, job assignment and invoicing review; captures photos, notes and customer approval as completion evidence; combines dispatch, availability, attendance and missed-shift reminders; supports recurring jobs, route planning and customer reminders; offers QuickBooks, Sage and Xero integrations; has iOS, Android and web access; includes a free tier and no-card trial.
• Cons: the free Basic plan allows only 10 jobs per month; Premium and Pro charge per user, so larger crews increase the monthly bill; the published descriptions do not explain a difference between Premium and Pro; no specific security certification or compliance standard is stated.

Alternatives

Carpet Cleaning Software is the relevant category guide when you want to compare more carpet-focused options.

• MioCommerce is a paid web, Android and iOS option with a free trial and appointment-oriented plans, making it a better fit when a website and booked appointments are the priority.
• Calday offers a free-forever plan for one service and up to 100 clients, so it suits a smaller appointment operation that does not need Fieldorbit’s job-evidence workflow.
• Carpetan has a free plan capped at 50 orders per month with one driver and limited accounts, appealing to a small carpet-cleaning dispatch setup.
• Fieldified provides scheduling, invoicing, CRM and reporting on a free plan, with paid tiers based on user counts; choose it when those general field-service functions match your needs.
• HiveSuite is a paid desktop and mobile service with crew-sized plans, worth considering when you need a defined team package rather than a ten-job free tier.
• Tradify is a paid job-management product with scheduling, quoting and invoicing, suited to businesses seeking that core trade workflow.
• Formitize is a paid modular service with a per-user plan, an alternative when configurable forms are the main requirement.
• ServiceOS uses personalized pricing based on operation size, order volume and advanced functionality, so it is an option for organizations needing a tailored commercial arrangement.

Verdict

Fieldorbit is a strong choice for cleaning businesses that want one connected process from quote and dispatch to attendance, customer communication and documented completion. Start with Basic if ten monthly jobs is enough; otherwise budget for per-user Premium or Pro pricing and confirm the difference between those tiers. Look elsewhere if you need a simpler low-volume booking tool or want clearly differentiated paid plans.
