Summary
Some links on HVACSoftwareReviews.com are affiliate links. When you click one of these links and sign up for a paid subscription, we may receive a commission from the software company. This commission comes at no extra cost to you. Our editorial recommendations are independent of these commercial relationships.
What Are Affiliate Links?
An affiliate link is a specially tracked URL that tells the software company that you arrived through our website. When you sign up for a paid plan after clicking an affiliate link, the software company pays us a referral fee — typically a flat amount per sign-up or a percentage of your first subscription payment.
You pay the exact same price whether you sign up through our link or go directly to the software company's website. Affiliate commissions come out of the vendor's marketing budget, not your subscription cost.
Which Companies Have Affiliate Relationships?
We maintain affiliate relationships with the following companies:
Housecall Pro
$200–$1,000 per referred subscription (varies by plan)
Jobber
Percentage of referred subscription revenue
ServiceM8
Flat fee per trial conversion
ServiceTitan
No affiliate relationship — linked because they're genuinely the best for enterprise HVAC
FieldEdge
No affiliate relationship — linked for editorial completeness
How Commissions Affect Our Editorial Process
We want to be completely transparent about how affiliate commissions interact with our reviews and rankings:
✓ Commissions do NOT influence rankings
Housecall Pro is our #1 pick because it's genuinely the best fit for most HVAC contractors with 1–15 trucks — not because they pay the highest commission. ServiceTitan ranks #3 despite having no affiliate relationship with us.
✓ We publish real cons
Every platform we recommend has weaknesses listed prominently in our reviews. We don't hide downsides of platforms that pay us commissions, and we don't inflate downsides of platforms that don't.
✓ We link to non-affiliate platforms when they're the right choice
Our ServiceTitan and FieldEdge reviews include direct links to their websites despite no affiliate relationship. When those platforms are the right recommendation, we say so.
✓ Our review methodology is public
Our testing process is described in detail on our About page. We test every platform with real accounts, real data, and real HVAC business owners.
FTC Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose our affiliate relationships on every page where affiliate links appear. We also include disclosure notices in page footers, review headers, and comparison pages. We believe in full transparency about how we earn revenue.
