What the pricing really means
Both Aspire and ServiceTitan use custom pricing, which means you need to talk to sales. In our experience, custom pricing usually means the product is targeting larger operations and the monthly cost will be higher than products with published prices. Ask specifically about total year-one cost, including setup, onboarding, and training.
Where Aspire wins
- Unlimited users included in licensing means no per-seat cost increases as you scale
- Real-time job costing gives precise margin visibility on every property and crew
- Estimating tools are deep with precise bidding capabilities for landscape maintenance contracts
- Now part of ServiceTitan family which adds long-term investment credibility
Where ServiceTitan wins
- Dispatch board handles multi-day jobs and crew splits without extra workarounds. Your dispatcher can drag jobs across days and techs in one view
- Pricebook with Good/Better/Best presentation mode lets techs upsell at the door: average ticket jumps 15-25% for shops that actually use it
- Built-in marketing tracks ROI per ad source, so you know exactly which Google Ads campaign brought in that $8,000 HVAC install
- Reporting drills down to revenue per tech, per job type, per zip code. Owners running 20+ trucks live in these dashboards
Where Aspire falls short
- Extremely complex to deploy with users reporting it takes months to years to get full value
- Pricing is opaque and based on company revenue tiers which makes budgeting difficult
- Billing practices have been called predatory by some customers with overcharges taking months to resolve
- Mobile app and employee-facing tools are weaker than the back-office management features
Where ServiceTitan falls short
- Pricing runs roughly $300/month per tech: a 10-tech shop pays $36K+/year before add-ons like phone integration or marketing pro
- Onboarding takes 2-3 months minimum. Your office manager will basically have a second job during that stretch
- Annual contract only, no month-to-month. If you want to leave mid-year, you are paying out the remainder
- A 3-truck plumbing shop does not need this. You will pay enterprise prices and use maybe 40% of the features
Who is each product built for?
Aspire
Target: 20-500+ employees
Aspire is the dominant platform for landscape companies doing $2M or more in revenue who need enterprise-grade estimating, job costing, and crew management. It is not for small shops and the deployment is genuinely painful. If you are under $1M in revenue, the cost and complexity will crush you. If you are a large landscape operation ready to invest 6+ months in setup, it delivers real operational control.
ServiceTitan
Target: 15-500+ technicians
Buy ServiceTitan if you run 15+ trucks and want dispatch, marketing, pricebooks, and reporting in one place. Skip if you have under 10 techs, because you will spend $36K/year on features your office manager never opens.
