Question 1

Is Omni Field an alternative to PlanMyCrew?

Accepted Answer

For general trade and service work, yes. Both are South African field service platforms billed in Rand. PlanMyCrew presents itself as built around the insurance panel contractor workflow, while Omni Field is general job and field service management across nine African markets.

Question 2

What does Omni Field cost?

Accepted Answer

There is a Free plan at R0. PaYu is R119 per month plus R99 per technician seat. Growth is R349 per month including one technician, then R189 per extra seat. Business is quoted. All advertised prices include 15% VAT, and admin and viewer users are free.

Question 3

Does Omni Field handle insurance panel work?

Accepted Answer

Omni Field manages the job, the quote, the invoice and the customer communication, and it does not model the insurance panel procurement flow specifically. There is no insurer dispatch email parsing and no per insurer SLA timer. If panel work is most of your revenue, compare that requirement directly.
