Don't take our word for it. Hear what real Australian tradies have to say.
ServiceM8 (like Tradify) suits smaller trade teams running quick, simple jobs. It’s long been optimised for Apple devices, and now also offers ServiceM8 Lite for Android — a pared-back app aimed at field staff and subcontractors who only need the basics (view assigned jobs, key details, simple updates). For the full feature set, ServiceM8 still recommends using iPhone/iPad.
NextMinute runs on iPhone and Android with a strong mobile experience for crews on site, and is built for bigger jobs like renos, new builds and landscaping. You get proper project planning with a Gantt view on desktop, easy scheduling, on-site timesheets and photos, plus back-costing to track actuals vs estimates. That mix makes NextMinute a solid alternative when you’ve outgrown simple, short-job apps
