    Smaller companies (less than 30 employees) and where their isn't recurring services. It's great for one-time service providers.

    It is much easier to adopt than other FSMs we have tried. While easy to adopt, it is robust and powerful. We were up and running in a matter of days, not weeks.

    Knowify has job costing but lacks the ability to invoice in the field and requires more work from [the] office staff.

    While Shortcuts has a more friendly UI, there are other vendors in the market that have developed their products in a way that suits user requirements from any industry. Shortcuts, in my opinion should look at expanding their use case to make it compatible for other industries as well
