Sendinvo vs Tradify

Tradify is a field service app with timesheets, job costing, purchase orders, UK certificates, and apps for every phone, priced per user. Sendinvo is one price for the whole team, and works out CIS and the VAT reverse charge on the invoice itself, which Tradify’s help centre says it leaves to Xero or Sage.

Checked October 2026. Everything about Tradify on this page is from Tradify’s UK pricing page, its feature pages and its help centre, each row links the page it came from so you can check it yourself, and where their pages say nothing, the row says so. Prices and plans change, so look at Tradify’s pricing page before you decide. Tradify is a trade mark of its owner, and Sendinvo isn’t connected with it.

Questions

Good to know

Is Sendinvo cheaper than Tradify?

For one person on Tradify Pro, £37 a month against Sendinvo’s £24.99 including VAT. Tradify charges per user and Sendinvo doesn’t, so the gap grows with the team: three people on Pro are £111 a month, and Sendinvo is still £24.99. Tradify’s Lite plan is £34 per user, with fewer features.

Does Sendinvo have timesheets and job costing like Tradify?

No. Each Sendinvo visit records when it started and finished, and Raise invoice can bill that time by the hour, but there are no timesheets for payroll and no job costing or profit reports. If you need those, Tradify has them.

Which one does CIS?

Sendinvo works out the CIS deduction on the labour lines and prints the gross total and the net amount due on the invoice. Tradify’s help centre says it has no CIS options of its own and that CIS invoices go through Xero or Sage.

Can I bring my Tradify customers and invoices over?

Yes. Export your customers and their sites, your price list and your invoices from Tradify on a computer, and choose the files in Sendinvo’s Import, which knows Tradify’s columns. Clients come with their people and sites, the price list as your items, unpaid invoices with their own numbers and what’s still owed, and paid ones as each client’s history. Jobs, quotes, timesheets, notes and photos stay in Tradify. Nothing is sent to your clients, and the import can be undone for 30 days.

Which phones does each app run on?

The Sendinvo app is available on the App Store for iPhone and iPad, and there’s no Android app yet. Tradify has apps for iPhone and Android.

How do On my way messages work?

In both, the message goes from your own phone. Tradify also sends texts about quotes, invoices, and reminders itself, at 10p a message. Sendinvo emails those and never sends a text itself.
