WorkBee
What it is
WorkBee is field service software for UK trades, including window-cleaning businesses. Its rounds tools create recurring visits, organize stops, and support weekly, fortnightly, four-weekly, monthly, or custom-day schedules for individual customers. Round reports cover revenue, skipped stops, and payment success. A native GoCardless integration can collect Direct Debit when a stop is completed and flag failed payments. The Field app lets workers mark stops as done or skipped, note skip reasons, and navigate to addresses by phone. It can capture jobs, photos, and signatures offline, then sync when connectivity returns. Accounting and payment integrations listed by the maker include Xero, QuickBooks, GoCardless, and Stripe. WorkBee offers a free plan billed forever, with up to 10 jobs per month, one engineer, basic invoicing, and email support. Paid plans start at £25/mo, and the maker offers a 30-day trial without a credit card; cancellation is allowed anytime. The maker describes the Field app as coming soon to the App Store and Google Play.
