Why people leave Tradify

Sound familiar?

These are the real reasons tradies told us they left Tradify. If you've felt any of these, you're not alone.

😵

"It overwhelmed me"

Too many features, too many clicks, too much time learning software instead of running your business.

"Tradify overwhelmed me...."

📞

Prefer less phone follow-up?

Some tradies like a guided onboarding with regular check-ins; others want to poke around the app quietly and ask for help when they need it. If you're in the second camp, that's OK — different products suit different styles.

"I wanted to run my painting business and learn the software at my own pace — not be on the phone every week."

💸

Per-user pricing adds up fast

Small teams get punished with pricing that scales per seat. Adding one person doubles your monthly cost.

"I'm a 3-person crew. Why am I paying $120+/month when I just need quotes and invoices?"

🐌

When speed matters

Some tradies report sluggish loads or sync delays at busy times — your experience may differ. Worth testing side by side on your own connection.

"Tradify gets slow at peak times. I just want my quotes to load instantly."

❓

Am I actually making money?

Trackexa puts profit-per-hour on every job front and centre. If that's how you decide what's worth quoting, compare both apps on a real job.

"I can see my income, but I have no idea if I made $20/hr or $80/hr on that job."

🏢

Built for big teams, not sole traders

Tradify has depth for larger operations. If you're solo or a small crew, you might only use part of the product — Trackexa stays focused on core tradie workflows.

"I don't need job dispatch or crew scheduling. I just need to know my numbers."
