The Free GorillaDesk Alternative for Field Service Pros

GorillaDesk charges $49-$149/month per route, with additional routes at $50/month each. Krib gives you unlimited scheduling and all features — with no monthly fee.

Why Contractors Choose Krib over GorillaDesk

GorillaDesk is well-known in specific niches like pest control and pool service, but its route-based pricing model can quickly cause your software costs to skyrocket once you have multiple trucks and crews out on the road. Krib completely eliminates this punitive per-route pricing model. Whether you are operating a single truck or managing an entire fleet spread across the city, Krib delivers superior drag-and-drop dispatching, permanent customer home record keeping, and automated communication tools without ever multiplying your monthly software bill.
