OneBookPlus vs Pool Service Software (PSS)

OneBookPlus is software for pool service businesses managing recurring routes, water chemistry records, bookings and invoices. It supports weekly, fortnightly, monthly and seasonal schedules, can build route schedules and raise invoices automatically, and lets technicians record chlorine, pH, alkalinity, salt, stabiliser and dosed chemicals for each pool. Invoices calculate 10% GST, show the business ABN and provide a GST summary for BAS reporting. Its Free plan includes a booking page; paid plans include a hosted website. Starter and higher plans offer Stripe payments, which carry Stripe processing fees plus a OneBookPlus platform fee. The service lists integrations with Stripe, Google Calendar, Mailchimp, Google Ads and Facebook Ads; Xero Sync and ATO Tax Lodgement are in development. A native app is available for iPhone and iPad, alongside a web app recommended for Android users. Plans include Free at free, Starter at A$29 a month, Plus at A$49 a month and Growth at A$69 a month. The maker says business records are encrypted and hosted in AWS Sydney.

Pool Service Software (PSS) gives pool service businesses tools for routing, jobs and quotes, invoices and payments, visit tasks, reports, equipment records, and GPS features. Routes can be optimized, with estimated work hours, mileage, gas costs, and dosage costs shown by stop and day. Users can track quote approvals, schedule single- or multi-day jobs, and attach photos or videos to job invoices. PSS records water readings and dosages and calculates LSI at service stops, with optional borate consideration. Invoicing options include online payments, client AutoPay, monthly automatic invoices, per-visit billing, and bulk actions. Integrations include Orenda Technologies, LaMotte digital meters, QuickBooks Online, and Stripe. LaMotte SpinTouch and ColorQ 2x readings can be sent by Bluetooth for LSI calculation; PSS can link its invoices to QuickBooks Online invoices. The free plan is free for up to 10 properties, with all features included. Dive In costs $49.99 a month for 11 to 50 properties. Pricing ranges assume one property per client, and Stripe fees are 2.9% plus 30 cents of the invoice amount paid.
