The beauty of gas engineer software is it’s tailored to our industry

We originally tried other different software I’ve used in previous employment – other software which didn’t have all the functionality. It wasn’t as cost effective and it wasn’t tailored to our industry. The beauty of gas engineer software is it’s tailored to our industry (we are predominantly gas engineers and plumbers) and it’s tailored towards what we do as a business and what we strive towards.”

A More Detailed Comparison: 

Why Gas Engineer Software Is The Better Choice For Heating & Plumbing Businesses

Automated reminders

Gas Engineer Software

  • Gas service reminders are one of our key features and help keep track of annual boiler servicing dates.
  • SMS and email reminders for missed quotes and unpaid invoices.
  • Messaging and send times can be customised inside the software.
  • Easily transition quotes into job sheets and invoices.

Tradify

  • SMS and email reminders available for quotes, invoices, and appointments – but not regular servicing as is common in the gas industry. 
  • Effectively helps with issues with late payments and scheduling.

Pre-filled information

Get all the details for a job address including appliances in seconds

Gas Engineer Software

  • Appliance details are saved so there’s no need to type it out every record. 
  • Saves all other information regularly filled out like customer details. 
  • Quick & painless integration with flue gas analysers to transfer data.
  • Easy barcode scanner to copy serial numbers.

Tradify

  • Customer data is stored in Tradify’s CRM, but no gas appliance information is stored, meaning it has to be entered each time manually by the engineer.
  • Includes in-app text scanner.

Records & certificates

Gas Engineer Software

  • Complete collection of gas & oil certificates available. 
  • Can be customised to include your logo and incorporate custom workflow statuses. 
  • Appliance information is automatically filled, as is information from your FGA.

Tradify

  • Offers a range of certificates (including electrical records) that can be created in the field and organised through the app. 
  • Auto-fills with customer information to save time for engineers.

Tradify

  • Currently, the Tradify mobile and web apps require a live internet connection to operate.

Ease of use

Turn your quotes into invoices at the click of a button

Tradify

  • A nicely designed platform with user experience in mind.
  • App contains several features available that aren’t necessary for gas businesses who want something simple, clear, and straightforward.
