Simpro alternative
A Worksum-vs-Simpro look for UK trades
Simpro is a powerful platform aimed at larger contractors, typically sold via a quote and implementation. Worksum gives smaller UK trades firms the same connected quote-to-invoice workflow with pricing on the website, no setup fees and no lock-in — and a live demo you can explore right now.
Why Worksum
One flat team price
See every price on the website — your whole team from £55/mo, then a flat £15/mo per extra user. No per-seat bill that climbs with every hire, no “book a demo” to find out what it costs.
No setup fees
Self-serve onboarding in an afternoon, not a four-figure implementation project.
No data lock-in
One-click full export of your jobs, clients and invoices, whenever you want.
UK compliance built in
VAT domestic reverse charge, CIS, retention, and BAFE/SSAIB/PSA compliance certificates — not bolted on.
One connected system
Quote → schedule → offline field app → job costing → VAT/CIS invoice, with the certificates to match.
