Looking for a ServiceTitan alternative?
ServiceTitan is strong for high-volume service/trades but is priced per technician via quote and is not built for project-based construction. CMDBLD does both service dispatch and full construction management, with AI estimating and real books, at a flat all-in price.
Why contractors switch from ServiceTitan

ServiceTitan alternative — FAQ
Is CMDBLD a good ServiceTitan alternative?
Yes. CMDBLD covers everything ServiceTitan does for running jobs, and adds what it doesn't: AI plan-reading estimates, a building-code compliance check, real double-entry accounting, and certified payroll — all in one published, all-in price from $1,400/mo.
Can I migrate my data from ServiceTitan?
Yes. CMDBLD imports projects, contacts, and vendors from ServiceTitan (and QuickBooks) via one-click CSV migration, deduped and previewed before anything saves — we do the import for you.
Can CMDBLD do dispatch like ServiceTitan?
Yes — CMDBLD includes dispatch with a price book (importable from ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro), itemized invoices with photos, and pay-now receipts, plus full project construction management ServiceTitan does not focus on.
Is CMDBLD cheaper than ServiceTitan?
For most teams, yes. ServiceTitan is quoted per technician; CMDBLD is a flat all-in price with unlimited users on the Pro tier.
Does CMDBLD replace my accounting too?
Yes — a real general ledger with AP/AR, bank reconciliation, and 1099 prep is built in, so you do not need a separate accounting subscription. Certified payroll (WH-347) for prevailing-wage jobs is included too.
