The Free Workiz Alternative for Service Contractors

Workiz's plans range from $225-$325/month, with additional users at $46/month each. Their free Lite plan limits you to 2 users. Krib has no limits and no monthly fee.

Why Contractors Choose Krib over Workiz

Workiz has carved out a strong niche among locksmith, garage door, and appliance repair businesses thanks to its built-in VoIP phone system, which lets you track call sources and record conversations — a feature most competitors charge extra for. Its dispatching board and job management tools are solid, and the free Lite plan gives new businesses a way to start without upfront cost. The catch: the free plan caps you at 30 jobs/month and 2 users, and removing those limits requires the Standard plan at $225/month. Krib has no stated job or user limits and includes every feature at no extra cost. It doesn't have Workiz's phone system, but it covers quotes, scheduling, invoicing, dispatch, and adds features like photo evaluations and customer home records. If integrated phone tracking is essential to your sales process, Workiz has an edge. If you need an unrestricted platform without per-user costs, Krib fills that gap.
