## Where InspectDay fits better

Teams of up to three inspectors who want one monthly price, with inspections taken on the phone.

### What it does well

- Solo is $49.00 a month for one inspector and one admin. Team is $149.00 a month for three inspectors and unlimited admins.
- Inspections are unlimited on every plan, Free included, and publishing and sharing reports has no plan limit.
- The free plan is one inspector and one template.
- New customers get a seven-day free trial on Solo and Team, at checkout.
- The phone app is for Android and iOS, and the web app works in any browser.
- On the phone, you can take photos and video and record voice notes. Photos can be marked up on Android and iOS.
- Opened inspections stay on the phone, and you can work on them with no connection. Changes wait to send.

### Where it is weaker

- You cannot import or export templates, and templates keep no version history.
- You type client details into each inspection. There is no client list to choose from.
- Scheduling is by date only, with no calendar view and no client booking.
- You cannot send client agreements, collect signatures or take client payments.
- Your website cannot go on a report.
- On the phone, you need a connection to start an inspection, pick a template or open a report.
- Changes send only while the app is open. You cannot publish until queued changes finish syncing. Failed changes stay on the device until you retry or discard them.

## Where ScribeWare fits better

Inspectors who want to pay per report to start, or an unlimited plan with online scheduling, payments and one-on-one support.

### What it does well

- A la carte is $12 a report with no monthly fee, and the first three reports are free, with no card needed.
- Software support, introductory one-on-one meetings, and monthly Zoom meetups for continuing education.
- The subscription includes Scheduling+: 24/7 online appointment booking, smart intake forms, instant quotes, integrated card payments and automatic reminder messages.
- Reports are HTML web pages you can interact with, and they can also be published as PDFs.
- ScribeWare runs on Mac, PC, Android and iOS.
- In many cases it can help import your templates and libraries when you move to ScribeWare.
