JobLogic vs Powered Now
Two United Kingdom field service software options, compared side by side for United Kingdom trades.
Which should you choose?
Powered Now edges ahead on our United Kingdom tiering (Tier S vs A), but both are workable — the right pick depends on your trade, region, and the United Kingdom-specific notes below.
JobLogic
Tier A · WorkableUK FSM with strong PPM/asset management workflow — strongest for facilities/maintenance contractors
JobLogic is a UK-built FSM platform with particularly strong PPM (planned preventive maintenance) and asset-management workflows. For trades contractors doing maintenance contracts on commercial buildings, facilities management work, or asset-tracking-dependent services, JobLogic's specialty depth shows up. Trustpilot 4.4/309 reviews — solid but not standout.
Pros
- + Strong PPM and asset-management workflows for facilities/maintenance trades
- + UK-built with native UK market understanding
- + Solid Trustpilot rating (4.4) across 309 reviews
- + Suitable for commercial-services trades contractors
Cons
- − UI feels dated compared to Commusoft or modern alternatives
- − Mobile/offline experience reported as flaky in some forum threads
- − Less specialized for pure residential service-trades use cases
United Kingdom note
PPM workflow is particularly strong for UK contractors with commercial facilities-management contracts. Less specialized for pure residential service-trades work — Commusoft or Powered Now may be better fits there.
Powered Now
Tier S · RecommendedUK FSM built for solo + small electricians, plumbers — accessible pricing, accounting-tight
Powered Now serves the smallest end of the UK FSM market — solo electricians, plumbers, and small trades businesses (1-5 employees). Accessible pricing, tight integration with UK accounting platforms (Xero UK, FreeAgent, QuickBooks UK), HMRC RTI alignment, and CIS deductions. Strong fit for the segment Commusoft and BigChange don't focus on.
Pros
- + Accessible pricing for UK solo + small trades (1-5 employees)
- + Founder is a UK electrician — UK trades-specific understanding is real
- + Tight integration with UK accounting (Xero UK, FreeAgent, QuickBooks UK)
- + Direct £50/referral affiliate scheme (rare among UK FSM)
Cons
- − Best fit ceiling around 5-10 employees — larger operations need Commusoft/BigChange
- − Smaller feature set than mid-market competitors
- − Brand recognition lower than Tradify or ServiceM8 in UK market
United Kingdom note
Founder is a UK electrician — the platform's understanding of UK small-trades workflow is genuine. Direct affiliate scheme: £50 per referral (one of few UK FSM platforms with documented publisher partnership).
