CMC Dispatch vs RouteBase

dispatch program with integrated expense and timeoff request

RouteBase is the iPhone app built for home service companies that live on the road. Customers, estimates, invoices, jobs, and the day’s route belong in one place. RouteBase is rebuilt as a native app for speed, reliability, and work offline. Plan tomorrow, run today, and know what you earned when the trucks roll in. See the whole day on the map: Open Routes for a live view of every stop: drive order, ETAs, revenue on the route, and time and distance for the plan. Start Route to record the drive. Finish when the day is done. See where your crew is when someone else is out, and tap their blip to focus on their stops. Open any stop in Apple Maps or Google Maps when it is time to roll. Jobs and schedule that match how you work: Jobs and tasks on a calendar that fits field work, not a desk. Recurring work behaves like a real schedule: each visit is its own job with its own status, timer, checklist, and ticket. Multi-day jobs span the days they need. Attach estimates, invoices, receipts, files, and notes without losing context. Customers, estimates, and invoices: Keep customers, service addresses, and history in one profile. Build estimates and invoices with your services and pricing. Send professional PDFs, track when a customer opens a document, and collect online when Stripe is connected. Record payments and expenses so Transactions stays honest. Your team, your permissions: Crews, employees, roles, and fine-grained permissions so the owner stays in control and techs see what they need. Time Clock and job timers feed timesheets. Job Settings can add estimated time when a job is completed with no punch. Insights that respect the drive: Reports across customers, jobs, estimates, invoices, payments, expenses, employees, crews, and routes. Route performance and run logs use recorded drives, not guesses. Smart tips on Growth help you spot what to fix next. Tools on the job: Lot Size and Material Calculator for quick takeoffs. Bulk customer import when you are moving off spreadsheets. Help Center answers how RouteBase works, with guides and a built-in assistant. Built for real conditions: Add and edit offline on the device. Changes sync when you are back online. Location is used for route planning and optional recording while a route is underway, with Save Power Mode when you want to stretch battery. Plans that grow with you: Starter is free: customers, jobs, schedule, estimates, and invoices on the device (with limits and a watermark on sent documents until you upgrade). Pro unlocks routes with live ETAs, crews and team members, timers and timesheets, payments, expenses, files and photos, sending documents, and core Insights. Growth adds full Insights, Smart tips, AI receipt scanning, and room for a larger team and storage. New companies get a 14-day Growth trial with no card required. Subscriptions are available through the App Store; you can also subscribe on the web. RouteBase is for owners and crews who want less app juggling and more clarity from the first stop to the last invoice.
