  • “clunky interface but it works once you figure it out. Dealbreaker for me was that when you have it prompt a customer for a review, you only get a google review if they have a gmail account. Otherwise the review ends up on Housecall pros profile for your business which is completely useless. They HOUNDED me for 6+ months after I cancelled, that's annoying.”

  • “There's no way for me to get the gclid into the CRM, its a closed industry CRM called housecall pro”
