Goodcall vs Rosie for trades businesses

How the bills differ

Rosie sells minutes. Professional is $49 for 250 minutes, Scale is $149 for 1,000 and Growth is $299 for 2,000. If your calls run about 3 minutes, 250 minutes is roughly 80 calls. Goodcall sells unique customers. Starter is $79 for 100 different callers a month, and a customer who calls five times in a month counts once. Spam and wrong numbers don't count, and a nine minute booking costs the same as a thirty second hang up.

Which one fits a trades shop

For a one or two truck shop that mostly needs messages taken and texted over, Rosie Professional at $49 is the cheaper start, and the 7 day trial lets you test it on real calls. If you want jobs booked during the call, compare Rosie Scale at $149 with Goodcall Starter at $79. Goodcall gets better the longer your calls run and the more repeat callers you have, like service agreement customers calling about the same job.

What we couldn't confirm

Neither vendor lists a native booking integration with ServiceTitan, Jobber or Housecall Pro on the pages we read. Both offer Zapier. Rosie's page asks what happens if you go over your minutes, but the answer wasn't visible on the page we read, so ask before you sign up.

Pick Goodcall if: Your calls run long, you get lots of repeat callers, or you want a bill that doesn't move with minutes.

Pick Rosie if: You want the lowest monthly price, a free trial, Spanish on every call, or annual billing.
