Poolbrain alternative

A Poolbrain alternative that runs routes and the back office together

Here is a straight account of what Pool Prime Pro does and what it costs, plus the questions to put to every pool platform you are shortlisting.

One system from the route sheet to the paid invoice

The stop your tech completes, the photos and chemistry they log, the invoice the customer pays, and the portal they see it in are all the same record — nothing is re-keyed between tools.

  • Recurring maintenance accounts with day, tech, frequency, and water features
  • Rolling 12-week route generation and drag-and-drop rescheduling
  • GPS route optimization and a live Field View map of clocked-in techs
  • Technician PWA with time tracking, chemical logs, and photo proof
  • Branded quotes and invoices with templates, deposits, tax, and card payment
  • Customer portal with visit history, PDFs, service requests, and messaging

Flat software pricing, one small usage fee

Basic $99, Pro $199, Enterprise $499 per month, plus $10 for each additional user beyond the included admin. Nothing is charged per stop. Invoices processed through the platform carry a 0.5% fee, with Stripe's processing rates separate. Price any competing option against your yearly stop volume, since per-stop models scale with your growth rather than your plan.

Things that tend to be extras elsewhere

These are part of the platform, not paid modules.

  • AI Tech Assistant: photo-based equipment diagnostics with Pentair, Jandy, and Hayward error codes and a tool-free repair path
  • Team Radio push-to-talk between office and crews
  • Vehicles and fleet assignment per technician
  • Full English and Spanish interface
  • Agent integrations so external AI assistants can query your company data securely

Test it against your real route

The 14-day trial is full Enterprise access with company details and a payment method collected up front; nothing is charged until it ends. Import your accounts, build a week, send one invoice, and judge it on your own numbers.

Frequently asked questions

What should I compare between pool route platforms?
Pricing model (flat versus per stop or per account), whether invoicing and payments are included or an add-on, all-in payment processing cost, whether customers get a portal, what proof of service is captured in the field, and whether the product is usable in Spanish by your crews.
What does Pool Prime Pro cost?
Basic $99/mo, Pro $199/mo, Enterprise $499/mo, plus $10 per additional user beyond the included admin. No per-stop fees. Invoices processed through the platform carry a 0.5% fee on top of Stripe's card rates.
How hard is switching?
Customers import from a downloadable CSV template covering addresses, service day, water features, access details, and notes. If your current export does not match, the AI import assistant maps your columns. Recurring routes then generate automatically 12 weeks ahead.
Is my company's data separated from other companies on the platform?
Yes. Pool Prime Pro is multi-tenant with database-level isolation, so each company's customers, routes, techs, documents, and financials are only visible to that company.
