Before the first job
Business Genie is cloud software: it runs on the web and in the iOS and Android app, and its trial is a full month, twice as long as Jobber’s or Housecall Pro’s 14 days. Service Fusion’s apps are on iOS and Android too.
Business Genie is field service management software for contractors, built around route optimization — schedule and route your crews, then invoice and get paid, on the web and in the iOS and Android app.
Business Genie plans start at $50 a month, with a free first month and no credit card. Service Fusion starts at $208 a month billed annually ($245 month to month), with unlimited users on every plan and no free trial, and puts job costing on its Plus plan and its customer portal on Pro.

Both list online booking and scheduling and dispatch. Between the schedule and the job is the drive, and the drive is what Business Genie is built around: route optimization orders each day’s jobs automatically and re-routes the day when a job is added, so the day is driven as routed, not in the order the jobs were booked. On the job there is GPS time tracking.
Both invoice and take payments, and both work with QuickBooks Online; on Service Fusion all of it is on the Starter plan. In Business Genie, your customer can pay by card, Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo or Cash App.
These are the steps that move a Service Fusion account up its plans. Its job costing is on Plus; its customer web portal is on Pro, alongside eSignatures, custom documents and API access. Business Genie has job costing and a customer portal of its own.
What happens on the drive, from step 2 to step 3 on the route above. None of it is an add-on.
