Knowify vs Duckie

About

Knowify is a construction job management software company serving specialty trade contractors and subcontractors including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and general contractors working on residential and light commercial projects. The platform covers the full project lifecycle: bidding and proposals, contract management, job cost tracking, crew scheduling, time and material billing, and QuickBooks synchronization. Knowify is designed for contractors doing primarily contract work — fixed-price and time-and-material jobs — rather than service calls, distinguishing it from field service management tools like FieldEdge and Jobber. Its job costing capabilities give contractors real-time visibility into budget versus actual costs at the trade level, enabling tighter project management and more accurate future bids. Founded in New York City, Knowify serves thousands of contractors and has built its reputation as one of the most contractor-specific job management platforms available to the mid-market.
