ServiceTitan Alternative
The ServiceTitan alternative built only for electricians.
If you run a 5 to 25 truck electrical shop and you have looked at ServiceTitan twice and walked away both times, FieldCommand was built for you. Flat pricing from $199 per month, electrical-specific workflows out of the box, and a one-week setup instead of a multi-week implementation.
The honest difference between FieldCommand and ServiceTitan
ServiceTitan is excellent software. It is also built for the whole field-service world. The product assumes you might be running HVAC, plumbing, electrical, garage doors, and pest control under the same roof. That assumption shows up in the feature surface, the implementation timeline, and the price tag.
FieldCommand is built only for electrical shops. Panel upgrades, service calls, EV charger installs, generator hookups, and light commercial work are the default workflows. Nothing to configure. Nothing to unwind. You sign up on Monday and your foreman is using it on Friday.

Where ServiceTitan overcomplicates things for an electrical shop
Implementation. ServiceTitan onboarding takes weeks because the platform has to be configured around your specific service-line mix. If you only do electrical, the configuration step is mostly unwinding assumptions the product made about HVAC and plumbing.
User interface. Generalist field-service software has to surface features that are irrelevant to a pure electrical shop. Your dispatcher scrolls past HVAC seasonal-tuneup workflows to get to the panel-upgrade workflow.
Pricing. ServiceTitan is priced for large multi-line operators with 20+ techs. A 5-truck electrical shop can run the platform, but you are paying for the size, not the fit.
None of this is a knock on ServiceTitan. The product is excellent for what it was built for. It was not built for a 5-truck electrical shop.
When ServiceTitan is the right choice (and FieldCommand is not)
If any of the following describes your shop, stay with ServiceTitan or evaluate it seriously:
- You run multiple service lines under the same roof (electrical plus HVAC plus plumbing)
- You operate above 25 trucks with a dedicated operations team
- You need the membership-program and recurring-service features that come with HVAC operations
- You have a dedicated implementation team that can absorb a multi-week onboarding
FieldCommand is not the right tool for that operator. We will tell you that on the discovery call.
When FieldCommand is the right choice
- You run electrical work only (service, light commercial, panel upgrades, EV, generators)
- You have 1 to 25 trucks on the road
- The owner is still doing dispatch from a phone in the truck
- You want flat pricing you can read on the website, not a custom enterprise quote
- You want to be running the new workflow within a week, not a quarter
Common questions about switching from ServiceTitan
Can I migrate my ServiceTitan data into FieldCommand?
Yes. We help you export customers, jobs, and invoices from ServiceTitan and import them into FieldCommand during onboarding. Most shops are running the new system within a week.
Will my bookkeeper need to learn a new system?
No. The books still live in QuickBooks Online. FieldCommand syncs with QuickBooks automatically.
What about the ServiceTitan annual contract?
Most shops time the FieldCommand cutover to coincide with the ServiceTitan renewal date. We help you plan the cutover so there is no double-billing month.
