Fulcrum vs GoCanvas

Fulcrum is a field operations management platform for running, recording, and closing out fieldwork. Teams build digital workflows with drag-and-drop forms, conditional logic, and required fields. Mobile capture handles photos, audio, video, barcodes, QR codes, and signatures, including offline use. Geospatial collection supports points, lines, polygons, offline basemaps, and layers. Audio FastFill turns spoken observations into structured data, while Insights answers plain-language questions with reports, maps, or risk trends. Fulcrum highlights Esri ArcGIS, Microsoft Power Automate, and IBM Maximo integrations, plus REST and Query APIs, webhooks, and Zapier. It runs on AWS and states SOC 2 Type 2 certification, TLS encryption in transit, and AES-256 encryption for stored data. Professional costs $43 a month billed annually; Elite costs $55 a month billed annually. All plans require annual billing and at least five users.

GoCanvas is a field operations platform for capturing, structuring, and acting on information collected in the field. Its drag-and-drop form builder works with low-code and no-code workflow automation, role-based access controls, conditional logic, and approval workflows. Teams can collect field data on mobile devices online or offline, then generate PDF reports and submissions. Custom dashboards track measures such as crew productivity, job costing, and performance trends. GoCanvas says it connects with over 1,000 tools, including QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Jira, Google Sheets, Dropbox, Salesforce, Autodesk, SharePoint, and SAP. Its API supports custom integrations, data submission and retrieval, and user management. It runs on Android, iOS, web, and Windows, and offers API access. GoCanvas reports SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, encryption at rest, and TLS 1.2 or greater for communications; customers can enable HIPAA controls, including idle timeouts and restrictions on saving passwords on devices. The Essentials, Pro, and Max plans each have a three-user minimum and annual billing. Prices are $29.00, $39.00, and $49 per user/month, respectively.
