MWS vs. Enterprise SaaS

Custom-built field service software vs enterprise SaaS pricing.

Enterprise field service platforms are powerful — built for large operations willing to pay enterprise prices and sign annual contracts. MWS gives small and mid-size field service businesses two ways out: MBOS, our subscription platform at a flat $199–$599/mo with no per-tech fees, or a custom build that's yours to own.

The Bottom Line

Why the Choice Is Clear

Enterprise field service SaaS is designed for large operations with dozens of techs and dedicated IT budgets. If that's you, it might be worth it. If you're a growing small or mid-size field service business, you're paying enterprise-level prices for features you'll never use. MBOS gives you the core platform — leads, scheduling, invoicing, payments — at a flat $199–$599/mo with no per-tech fees and no contract. And if your operation needs something the platform doesn't do, a custom build gets you exactly that, with the code in your hands.

💰
The Cost Gap Is Real

At $500+/month before per-user fees, enterprise SaaS costs $6,000+/year — every year. MBOS runs a flat $199–$599/mo with zero per-tech fees. A custom build at $10K–$15K is paid off in under two years and costs nothing after.

Faster to Launch

Enterprise SaaS onboarding takes months of configuration and training. MBOS has you running in days; MWS web app builds typically launch in 4–6 weeks with direct support from the builder.

🔧
Built for How You Operate

Enterprise platforms are broad by design. MBOS is built specifically for home-service trades — and custom builds go further, shaped around your exact dispatch process, service types, and billing model.

Field service software without the enterprise price tag.
