Two tools, two jobs. Here's how to pick — or pair them.
Housecall Pro is field service software — scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, customer payments. LeadRecover is a lead recovery and follow-up system. Owners often compare them because both promise to 'grow your business', but they grow different sides of it. Capture vs execution.
| Feature | LeadRecover | Housecall Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | Capture & convert leads | Dispatch, invoice, collect payment |
| Missed call text-back | Native | Add-on (extra cost on higher tiers) |
| Auto follow-up cadences | Multi-touch SMS + email | Limited automated reminders |
| Source ROI dashboard | Yes | Marketing add-on |
| Scheduling & dispatch | Lightweight | Full-featured |
| Payments & invoicing | No | Yes |
| Starting price | $99/mo flat | $69/mo (per user, Basic) |
| Per-seat pricing | No (flat plans) | Yes |
If your phone rings and leads disappear before you can call back, start with LeadRecover. If your team is double-booking jobs and chasing paper invoices, start with Housecall Pro. Most growing service businesses end up running both — LeadRecover at the top of the funnel, Housecall Pro on the operations side.
