Why switch
Why Australian tradies are switching from Tradify to OneBookPlus
Ditch the Xero add-on
Tradify needs Xero or MYOB for accounting — that's an extra $35-78/mo. OneBookPlus includes P&L reports, expense tracking, BAS summaries, and GST compliance. One subscription, not two.
CRM & marketing included
Tradify has no CRM and no marketing tools. OneBookPlus includes contact management, email campaigns, and Google review requests — so you can win more jobs, not just track them.
Save $700-1,500+/year
Tradify at $35-55 NZD/user/mo plus Xero at $35-78 AUD/mo adds up fast for a small team. OneBookPlus starts free and includes everything for $0-69/month.
Online bookings built in
Tradify doesn't offer a client-facing booking page. OneBookPlus gives you a shareable booking page with Google Calendar sync and automated reminders — no extra tool needed.
Built for Australian compliance
Tradify is NZ-based and works in Australia, but OneBookPlus is built for Australian tax from the ground up — ABN validation, GST handling, BAS reports, and ATO-ready summaries.
FAQ
OneBookPlus vs Tradify — your questions answered
Is OneBookPlus better than Tradify for Australian tradies?
For tradies who want everything in one place, yes. Tradify is solid for job tracking, quoting, and timesheets — but it relies on Xero or MYOB for accounting and has no CRM, bookings, or marketing tools. OneBookPlus includes all of that. If you only need job management and already pay for Xero, Tradify works. But if you want to stop juggling apps, OneBookPlus is the better choice.
Can OneBookPlus replace Tradify and Xero together?
Yes. OneBookPlus handles quoting, invoicing, job scheduling, timesheets, and expense tracking — the core features tradies use Tradify for. It also includes accounting, P&L reports, BAS summaries, and GST compliance, replacing the Xero subscription you need alongside Tradify.
How much does Tradify cost compared to OneBookPlus?
Tradify charges approximately $35-55 NZD per user per month. Since it has no accounting, you also need Xero ($35-78 AUD/mo) or MYOB. For a two-person team, that's easily $130-200+ AUD/mo. OneBookPlus starts free and includes everything for $0-69/month — saving you $700-1,500+ per year.
Does OneBookPlus have timesheet tracking like Tradify?
Yes. OneBookPlus includes job tracking and time management. While Tradify has purpose-built timesheet features for crews, OneBookPlus covers time tracking needs for most trades businesses and adds accounting, CRM, online bookings, and marketing tools that Tradify doesn't offer.
What is the best Tradify alternative in Australia?
OneBookPlus is the best Tradify alternative for Australian tradies who want a complete business platform. While Tradify focuses on job management and needs Xero for accounting, OneBookPlus combines invoicing, CRM, bookings, accounting, BAS reports, marketing, and job management in one app — built for Australian tax compliance from day one.
