RoundRun vs WorkBee

RoundRun is window-cleaning software for managing recurring rounds, scheduling, field jobs, customer messages, invoices, and payments. Route planning uses road routes and a chosen starting point, while letting users adjust job order for access, parking, or timing. Smart Rounds can preview or maintain routes using crew hours and measured job times; it protects the next seven days and includes a 24-hour undo. Autopilot GPS can help detect arrivals and departures, time work, and connect job completion with invoicing and customer messages. The software supports automatic invoicing, invoice PDFs or secure links, payment reminders, bank uploads, and payment matching. It queues work offline for recovery when connectivity returns. Ask AI answers plain-language questions about a round, including earnings, pricing, overdue work, and driving time. The web app is live and Android beta access is available; a native iPhone app is planned, while public Google Play release is not yet available. Founding Member beta is free for eligible UK businesses among the first 50; listed paid plans include Founding Standard at £9.99 per month and Standard at £15.99 per month.

WorkBee is field service software for UK trades, including window-cleaning businesses. Its rounds feature builds recurring routes, creates visits, orders stops, and supports weekly, fortnightly, four-weekly, monthly, or custom-day schedules for individual customers. Round reports show revenue per round, skipped-stop analysis, and payment success rates. A native GoCardless integration can collect Direct Debit when a stop is completed and flag failed payments. The Field app lets workers mark stops done or skipped, record a reason, and navigate to addresses by phone; it can capture jobs, photos, and signatures offline and sync when connectivity returns. Integrations listed for accounting and payments include Xero, QuickBooks, GoCardless, and Stripe. The Free plan is free, billed forever, with up to 10 jobs per month, one engineer, basic invoicing, and email support. Starter is £25 a month, Growth is £59 a month, and Pro is £119 a month. Paid plans begin with 30 days free, need no credit card, and can be cancelled anytime.
