Field service management software for handyman businesses, handling scheduling, customer management, job tracking, and invoicing for solo operators and small teams.
In its favor
Why people choose Handyman
The signal that keeps Handyman on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Targets the specific vocabulary and workflows of handyman and general trades businesses rather than generic field service software.
Provides integrated scheduling, job tracking, and invoicing in a single application without requiring multiple disconnected tools.
Straightforward setup that allows solo operators to begin managing jobs immediately without extensive configuration.
Handles both flat-rate and time-and-materials pricing structures commonly used in handyman service businesses.
Limited scalability beyond small team sizes, with businesses outgrowing the platform as they add multiple technicians or crews.
Feature set narrows for businesses expanding into specialty trades that require more complex project management capabilities.
Integration ecosystem narrower than larger competitors, making it difficult to connect with specialized accounting or CRM tools.

Pricing tiers
Handyman pricing overview
Handyman (by GSGroup) uses a per-user-per-month SaaS model. The Small plan is €25/user/month covering Office/Mobile, time recording, material acquisition, checklists, and photo documentation. Medium is €37.50/user/month adding resource planning, service management, and ERP integration (Microsoft Business Central and others). On-Premise pricing is custom and quoted on request. The vendor markets typical ROI within 12 months. Note: the catalog website (handyman.com) is actually a homeowner-contractor marketplace, not the FSM software described here — buyers and migration scoping should disambiguate which product is in play.

What gets migrated
Handyman object support
Object-by-object support for Handyman migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Customers
Fully supportedCustomer records with contact information, service addresses, and account history migrate cleanly. We preserve the full customer profile and link it to associated job and invoice records during transfer.
Jobs
Fully supportedJob records including description, scheduled date, assigned technician, status, and line items are migrated. Open and completed jobs transfer with their full history intact.
Estimates
Mapping requiredEstimates and proposals attached to jobs require value mapping between platforms. Status values like accepted or declined are preserved as custom properties in the destination system.
Invoices
Fully supportedInvoice records including line items, totals, payment status, and customer association migrate. We map payment status values to their equivalents in the destination platform.
Technicians
Fully supportedTechnician profiles with contact details and assignment history transfer. Where the destination uses a different user object model, we map technician records to the appropriate user entity.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredAny custom fields defined on Jobs or Customers require field-level mapping to destination equivalents. We extract the custom field definitions during discovery and match them to destination properties or create them as new custom fields.
Attachments
Mapping requiredFile attachments associated with jobs or customers migrate as binary blobs. We transfer them alongside the parent record and relink them in the destination system.
Service History
Mapping requiredHistorical service records attached to customer accounts are migrated but require sequencing to preserve chronological order. We chunk long histories and load them in date-ordered batches.
