ServiceTitan or a Configurable CRM?
ServiceTitan runs dispatch, scheduling and pricebook field work for larger trade firms. A configurable CRM runs the sales pipeline beside it.
ServiceTitan runs dispatch, scheduling, routing and pricebook estimates for big field teams. A configurable CRM like SalesCrew runs the sales side beside it. It follows up large estimates, runs renewal campaigns and tracks commercial accounts. The price is public, and seats are unlimited.
The short answer
- ServiceTitan does not publish prices. Its three tiers (Starter, Essentials, The Works) are quoted on request. The quote is based on your trade, how many techs you have and your needs. That's common for tools built for larger field-service firms.
- A configurable CRM holds contacts, companies and deals. You set it up for your own sales pipeline. That covers follow-up on large estimates and campaigns to commercial accounts.
- The two do different jobs. ServiceTitan gives larger trade firms deep tools for field work. A configurable CRM gives you a flexible pipeline, run by you or your agents, for the sales work around the job.
- SalesCrew gives each client its own database with a full export. An audit log records every tool call by a user, token or agent.

What each tool does well
ServiceTitan
- Deep dispatch, scheduling and pricebook estimates for large field teams
- A developer platform and app store built for larger trade firms
- No prices on the site. Every tier needs a quote, so you can't know the cost before a sales call
A configurable CRM
- Every action is also an MCP tool. An agent can read and work the pipeline, and each tool call lands in the audit log
- Multi-step cadences, with suppression checked at send. Chase a large unsold estimate, or run a spring or autumn renewal push as a real sequence
- Public prices and unlimited seats on every tier. You know the cost before you sign up
How to choose
Some firms send techs across several crews each day and run a detailed pricebook. At that size, a missed dispatch or a wrong price costs real money. That depth is why larger trade firms pick ServiceTitan. Field work belongs on a dispatch tool. The sales pipeline belongs in a CRM.
Some firms also lose large estimates because no one runs a set follow-up. Or a renewal campaign runs now and then, not on a schedule. That's the job a configurable CRM does. ServiceTitan's reports can flag an unsold estimate. SalesCrew then runs the multi-step follow-up. AI drafts wait in one approval queue before anything sends.
Larger trade firms that need both run ServiceTitan for dispatch, scheduling and field work. They run a configurable CRM for sales follow-up. They link the two through ServiceTitan's API where it helps. They don't merge them into one system. At that size, field work and sales follow-up are two different jobs.
Questions
- Can you run ServiceTitan and a configurable CRM at the same time?
- Yes. ServiceTitan stays the home for dispatch, scheduling, routing, pricebook estimates and field invoices. That's its core. A configurable CRM sits beside it for the sales work. Think of a multi-step follow-up on a large unsold estimate. Or a pipeline for commercial accounts. Or a push to renew service plans, run as a campaign and not a one-off reminder.
- How hard is it to move data between ServiceTitan and a configurable CRM?
- ServiceTitan has an open API and an app marketplace. Contact and customer data can sync, so no one types it twice. The field data itself stays put. A tech's route, a pricebook line and a dispatch board live in ServiceTitan. A real setup keeps shared customer records in sync. It doesn't replace one system with the other.
- Who controls what an AI agent sends from SalesCrew?
- You do. Every agent ships in review mode. So any outside send waits in one approval queue. You approve it, edit it first, or reject it with a reason. One kill switch on the Agents page stops every agent at once. Every tool call goes in the audit log.
- What does SalesCrew do for a business that runs ServiceTitan?
- It runs the sales side around the job. It follows up a large unsold estimate with a set cadence. It tracks a pipeline for commercial or multi-site accounts. It runs a seasonal renewal campaign. The price is public: Core is $299 a month with unlimited seats.
