Why switch
You don’t have to replace
your whole system to fix the field
The office side of ESC works. The reports work. Twenty years of history is in there. The problem was never ESC — it’s the app in your techs’ pockets, and that’s the one piece you can swap out on its own.
The math
ESC mobile started around $40 per tech, per month. Today it’s $115 to $250 depending on how long a term you’ll commit to. In the six years that price climbed, nothing arrived that changed a tech’s day. The app still freezes in the field, techs still put the wrong AM or PM on a time, van stock still doesn’t match the truck, and billing is still the thing everybody puts off.
ServiceProof is $75 per tech, per month, and $25 per office user if you want your dispatchers on it too.
| Per tech, per month | ESC mobile | ServiceProof |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $115 – $250 | $75 |
| Term commitment | The cheaper price needs one | None — leave at the end of any month |
| Meaningful new features since 2020 | Name one | Shipped weekly, from field requests |
| Custom work for your shop | Not available | On request |
| Your ESC database | Stays yours | Stays yours — untouched |
Prices for ESC mobile are what ESC shops have told us they’re paying; check your own invoice for your exact number. The point isn’t the decimal place — it’s the direction it’s been moving, and what you got for it.
You keep ESC
This is the part people don’t believe until they see it.
- Your data never moves. ESC stays exactly where it runs today, and ServiceProof never copies your database or holds it.
- Your office changes nothing. Same screens, same reports, same month-end. Dispatch still dispatches the way it always has.
- Work lands in ESC as it happens. A tech clocking on, billing a part or raising a PO writes into ESC directly — not into a separate system you later reconcile.
- No second source of truth. There’s nothing to sync up at the end of the week, because there’s only ever one set of books.
If you cancel, you cancel an app. Your business carries on exactly as it did the day before, because everything your crews did is already in ESC.
What switching your whole system really costs
Plenty of shops have looked at ServiceTitan — or one of the others — because the mobile app was bad. That’s a very big answer to a fairly small question, and the bill isn’t the license fee:
The history you lose
Every service call, every part, every note going back years. Most migrations carry over a fraction of it, and the rest becomes a read-only archive nobody opens.
The months of disruption
Rebuilding price books, agreements, tax codes and workflows — while still answering the phone and running the trucks.
The office relearning everything
The people who know how to make ESC sing become beginners again. That cost lands on your most experienced staff.
The money, before the subscription
Conversion, data work, configuration, training, the consultants who do it and the overtime for the staff who help them. That is spent before the new system has saved you a dollar — and it is spent whether or not you end up liking it.
Then the subscription starts, priced per technician, and it is not a small number. You are paying it on every truck, every month, forever — to solve a problem that lived in one app.
And you might still be unhappy
A new platform is a new set of compromises. The one thing you were actually trying to fix — the field app — you can fix on its own, this month.
Live in under a week
There’s no data migration, so there’s no migration project.
Days 1–2
We connect to your ESC server and show you your own customers, your own jobs, your own parts on a phone. Not a demo dataset — yours.
Days 3–4
Your trucks, your warehouses and your people come across. You tell us who’s allowed to create work and who’s office-only.
Day 5
A couple of techs run real jobs on it. They don’t need training — the point of the design is that they don’t.
Then the rest
Add crews as fast as you like. When you’re happy, drop your ESC mobile licenses at the end of the month.
