What is ZenTrades?
ZenTrades is an all-in-one field service management (FSM) platform built for trade businesses. It puts scheduling, dispatching, estimates, invoicing, online payments, inventory, job costing, and inspection compliance in one system. It replaces paper tickets, spreadsheets, and disconnected apps. More than 10,000 field teams use ZenTrades to run their daily operations.
Which trades does ZenTrades support?
ZenTrades is built for fire and life safety, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, elevator, commercial kitchen equipment, and water restoration businesses. Each trade gets workflows that match how its work is actually done. For example, fire protection companies get NFPA inspection forms, and HVAC contractors get recurring jobs and service agreement billing.
How much does ZenTrades cost?
ZenTrades pricing is based on your team size and the capabilities you need, so you only pay for what you use. Scheduling, dispatching, and the technician mobile app are included for every business. Build your setup on our pricing page to get a custom quote.
Is ZenTrades a good fit for small businesses?
Yes. ZenTrades works for a two-person crew as well as a multi-region operation. Plans cover teams with 1 to 10 technicians, growing companies with 26 or more technicians, and multi-company portfolios. You can start with the features you need today and add more as you grow, without switching systems.
How long does it take to get started?
Most teams are up and running within 7-14 days. Our onboarding team handles setup, data import, and training, so your office staff and technicians are ready from day one. The system is simple enough that a new hire can use it on their first day.
Can I bring my existing data into ZenTrades?
Yes. You can import customer records, site details, and your pricebook in bulk, so you don't have to retype years of information. Our onboarding team helps you move data from spreadsheets or your current software, including exports from tools like QuickBooks, Jobber, Housecall Pro, and ServiceTitan.
Will my technicians actually use it?
Yes. The ZenTrades mobile app for iOS and Android shows technicians their jobs, customer history, forms, and checklists in one place. Techs can capture photos, collect signatures, and clock in and out from the job site. It is built to be simple, and business owners in their 70s use ZenTrades every day.
Does ZenTrades integrate with QuickBooks?
Yes. ZenTrades syncs invoices, payments, and customers with both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop. The QuickBooks integration is included in every plan, with no premium tier needed. This removes double entry between your field operations and your accounting.
What other tools does ZenTrades connect with?
ZenTrades connects with Stripe, Gravity Payments, and STAX for payments. It connects with The Compliance Engine for inspection reporting. An open API is available for custom connections, so you can keep the tools your team already relies on.
How does ZenTrades help fire and inspection companies stay compliant?
ZenTrades automatically schedules recurring inspections based on required frequency and flags anything upcoming or overdue. Technicians complete built-in NFPA forms on mobile with photos. Reports are generated automatically, and deficiencies found on site can be turned into branded proposals in a few clicks. Results can be submitted through The Compliance Engine integration.
How do customers pay through ZenTrades?
Customers can pay invoices online or by card on site. Payments are processed through Stripe, Gravity Payments, or STAX, and each payment is recorded against the job and synced to QuickBooks. This helps you get paid faster and removes manual payment tracking.
How is ZenTrades different from ServiceTitan, Jobber or Housecall Pro?
ZenTrades combines everyday service tools like scheduling, invoicing, and payments with deep compliance features like recurring inspections, NFPA forms, and deficiency management. Its modular pricing means you don't pay for features you won't use, and it is simple enough to adopt without a long learning curve. See our comparison page for a feature-by-feature breakdown.
