CurbBid vs ServiceTitan

ServiceTitan is built for 50-truck shops. You're not a 50-truck shop.

ServiceTitan won't even publish a price. Most contractors pay $245–$500 per technician per month, plus $5,000–$50,000 to get set up. CurbBid is $399 a month. Flat. No setup fee. No contract.

30-day money-back · No contract · Fast setup, flat price
Quick verdict

ServiceTitan is enterprise software for big residential and commercial home service operations — typically 20+ technicians with office staff, dispatchers, and the budget for a 6-to-12-month setup. ServiceTitan has even told the BBB their product 'is not optimized for companies with 3 or fewer technicians.' CurbBid is built for the exact crew ServiceTitan turns away.

The contractor voice

You sat through a sales demo to find out the price.

ServiceTitan doesn't post pricing. You schedule a call, sit through a slide deck, and at the end you find out it's $245–$500 per tech per month — plus $5,000 to $50,000 for setup (source). For a 5-tech shop, year-one costs commonly run $30,000–$40,000+ before you add Marketing Pro or Phones Pro. CurbBid's price is on the website. Pay $399 or $999. That's it.

It took six months to set up. You still aren't using it.

BBB filings include contractors who paid for a full year of ServiceTitan and never finished setup. Contractors on Capterra say things like 'great for a very large company, but not for a company that wants to keep things simple.' CurbBid is built so setup takes minutes, not months. Send the first quote the same day you sign up.

You signed a 12-month contract. You can't get out.

ServiceTitan deals are typically 12–36 months and early termination has been documented at $24,000 to $39,000+ in BBB filings (source). CurbBid is no contract. Cancel any time, in the app.

The math

Estimated cost (ServiceTitan pricing is custom)

ServiceTitan won't quote a public number, so these are estimates from third-party reporting at the mid-range of $245–$500/tech/month.

Crew size ServiceTitan CurbBid
1 tech ~$245/mo + setup fee $399/mo, no setup fee
3 techs ~$735/mo + Marketing Pro + setup $399/mo, no setup fee
5 techs ~$1,225/mo + Marketing Pro + setup $399/mo, no setup fee
10 techs ~$2,450–$5,000/mo + add-ons $399/mo, no setup fee

Plus the $5K–$50K one-time setup fee. For a 3-tech shop, year-one ServiceTitan cost is commonly $15,000–$25,000+. Year-one CurbBid Pro cost is $4,788.

  • Implementation and data migration: $5K–$50K+

Common contractor complaints

  • "It's too big. My guys are scared to log in."
  • "We paid for a year. We never got onboarded."
  • "Cancelling cost $39,375."
  • "Powerful, but not worth 5x what Housecall Pro costs."
The honest take

When ServiceTitan is the right call.

ServiceTitan is genuinely better than CurbBid if you have 20+ technicians, dedicated office staff, a CFO who needs deep reporting, multiple service lines, and the patience for a 6-to-12-month rollout. Their Marketing Pro attribution and pricebook depth are best-in-class for shops spending $10K+/month on ads. We'll be the first to tell you: if you're an enterprise contractor, ServiceTitan probably wins. CurbBid is the opposite of ServiceTitan on purpose. You shouldn't have to be a Fortune 500 to send a quote.

Bottom line

Start free. Setup is fast and the price is flat. If CurbBid doesn't pay for itself in 30 days, get every penny back.
