Which software should a field service or contracting business use for jobs, quotes and scheduling?

Zoho FSM for a service business in India, Jobber for a small crew abroad. Zoho FSM prices by appointments rather than seats: free for 30 appointments a month, then Standard from ₹1,000 a month billed yearly (₹1,200 monthly) for 60 appointments, covering estimates, work orders, dispatch, service reports and invoicing, with a 15-day trial. Jobber does quotes, scheduling, invoicing and payments for home-service trades; Core is $29 a month billed yearly ($49 with no commitment) for one user, Connect starts at $99, and its 14-day trial runs on the Grow plan. Housecall Pro is the close US rival at $59 a month billed annually for Basic. ServiceTitan is built for large HVAC and plumbing contractors and quotes per technician after a demo. The rule: pick the one priced the way your work grows (appointments for Zoho FSM, users for Jobber), run one real week of jobs on the trial, and leave ServiceTitan until you run a large dispatch team.
