Eworks Manager (IE)
Tier S · Published pricesUK-built job management software for trades, priced per team per month rather than per user
Eworks Manager is job management software from Eworks Manager Limited, a UK company registered in London with an office in Manchester; Companies House shows Clearcourse Partnership Acquireco Finance Limited has controlled it since November 2021. It covers scheduling, quoting, invoicing, digital job sheets and compliance documents, with a mobile app for field staff, for electricians, plumbers, gas, HVAC, fire and security firms. Eworks says it is used by 2,000+ tradespeople.
Pros
- + Published prices from £130 per month, excluding VAT
- + One monthly fee per team within each user band, not per user
- + Links to QuickBooks, Sage and Xero, plus Zapier
- + Free trial on request
Cons
- − No Irish office, site or phone line; support is UK-based
- − Headline prices shown in GBP; euro amounts not published in readable form
- − Price depends on user band and plan; SMS credits and modules are capped per plan
- − Sage edition support not specified
Ireland note
Eworks has no Irish site, office or phone number; it sells from the UK. Its pricing page offers a EUR currency option, and it integrates with QuickBooks, Sage and Xero, but it does not say which Sage editions or whether Irish VAT is handled, so confirm both before buying.
ServiceM8
Tier S · Published pricesiPhone-first job management app for small service businesses, priced in euro by jobs per month, with a free plan
ServiceM8 is job management software for small service contractors, covering scheduling, quotes, invoicing and job cards, sold in Ireland through its EU site with euro prices. Plans are priced per account by jobs per month, with unlimited users on paid plans and a free plan for one user. ServiceM8 says it optimises for Apple devices and recommends iPhones or iPads; Android users get ServiceM8 Lite, which covers the basics.
Pros
- + Published euro prices with a free plan (1 user, 30 jobs a month)
- + Unlimited users on paid plans; price is set by monthly job count
- + No contracts, setup fees or per-user fees, according to ServiceM8
- + Connects to Xero and QuickBooks Online
Cons
- − Built for Apple devices; Android users get ServiceM8 Lite with the basics
- − Price rises with monthly job volume
- − No Irish-specific site or payroll features
- − Aimed at small service businesses rather than large operations
Ireland note
ServiceM8 has no Irish-specific site; Irish customers use its EU site, which prices in euro. It connects to Xero and QuickBooks Online (MYOB is Australia and New Zealand only). Its EU pages list no payroll features, so Irish payroll and Revenue submissions need a separate payroll package.
