Question 1

Is Omni Field an alternative to simPRO?

Accepted Answer

For small and mid-sized African contractors, yes. Both cover scheduling, job tracking, quoting, invoicing and stock. Omni Field publishes its prices and bills in South African Rand. simPRO is headquartered in Australia and invites visitors to request a quote for pricing.

Question 2

Can Omni Field handle job costing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Costing draws on the quoted value, the time booked to the job and the stock consumed, so you can see the margin on completed work rather than estimating it at month end.

Question 3

Does Omni Field support more than one branch?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Multi-location support separates work, stock and reporting by branch, so a contractor operating from two or three depots can see each one on its own as well as the whole business.
