AN HONEST COMPARISON

The all-in-one platform.
Without the add-on stack.

Workiz publishes plan tiers, but communications and AI answering are sold separately — budget those lines explicitly. Thorbis is one flat price with deeper inventory, costing, and AI-native coordination built in.

THE SHORT VERSION

Workiz publishes a plan. The add-ons are where the real number lives.

Workiz calls out communications and AI answering as sold separately on its pricing page. Any specific dollar add-on figures are third-party and unofficial — confirm with Workiz.1

03 · SWITCHING IS OUR PROBLEM, NOT YOURS

Guided migration.
Records, automations, and team.

Coming from Workiz? We import your customers, jobs, and catalog after cleanup, then rebuild your automations with Thorbis AI and portal tools. We port or forward your call-tracking numbers so campaigns stay consistent, and we archive your Workiz exports so the operational history you still reference migrates too.

Portedcall-tracking numbers · archived history
YOUR MIGRATION FROM WORKIZ 3 STAGES · GUIDED
STEP 01 Workiz export Customers, jobs, and catalog data imported after cleanup — export reports, dedupe entities, and stage a review with finance.
STEP 02 Automation relaunch Rebuild journeys with Thorbis AI and portal tools — booking and escalation paths, review and win-back campaigns, and a branded portal.
STEP 03 Enablement Train dispatch, techs, and leadership on new KPIs — dispatch simulations, field-app labs, and an executive metrics review.
04 · TO BE FAIR

Workiz is a serious option.
For many service businesses.

Its call tracking and reminders are strong, and its lighter catalog is enough for plenty of teams. Thorbis wins the comparison when buyers need enterprise-grade dispatch depth, inventory, and AI workflows in one roadmap — and fewer surprises from bolt-on communications pricing. Model the totals with official pages, not forum guesses.

$299/month. Flat.
One number, no add-on stack.

Communications, AI answering, inventory, and costing are all in the platform — AI usage is modelled with sales and metered at cost. Reserve early access and lock in founding pricing.
