Launch27 plans, prices and what each includes are from launch27.com/pricing as read on November 14, 2026, monthly billing. "Not listed" means the feature does not appear on that page. PurVago Team is our monthly list price and includes unlimited team members and jobs with 200 texts a month. Card processing is separate on both, and PurVago keeps a 0.5% platform fee on customer card payments.

Why owners pick PurVago over Launch27

The crew app is not an upgrade

Every PurVago plan includes the app for your cleaners. Launch27 lists mobile app access for cleaners on its $299 plan only.

It works with no signal

Checklists, photos and the clock keep running in a basement and sync later. Launch27's pricing page does not mention working offline.

Quotes from photos

A PurVago quote starts with photos or a video from the customer and counts the rooms for you. Launch27 lists a booking form and a contact form for leads.

The whole day, not just the booking

Per-home checklists, two cleaners on one visit with both credited, a quality score per cleaner, and training with a final exam.

Still being built

PurVago ships new features every month and publishes them. The copyright line on Launch27's pricing page still read 2023 when we checked.

Your data, moved for you

Send us your customer and booking exports and we load them within a business day, free.

Good to know about PurVago: customer card payments run through Stripe, and payroll is a clean hours export for the payroll provider you already use. Team is $129 a month with unlimited team members and jobs, AI estimates from photos, texting from your own number and QuickBooks sync. Business is $299 with the training Academy, white-label and hiring tools. Starter is $49 for a company of one or two.

Try PurVago on your own customers, not on demo data

Start the 14-day trial, then send us your Launch27 exports. We load your customers, homes, recurring cleans and upcoming visits within a business day at no cost. Quote a real house from photos, send a real crew out with the app, and judge it on your own week.

Where Launch27 costs you

Launch27 does online booking and recurring schedules and has for years. The trouble starts in the field. Its app for cleaners, on-the-way alerts, running-late alerts and job photos are all on the Plus plan at $299 a month; on the $75 and $150 plans your crew gets a mobile-friendly web page. Automatic review requests and text reminders start at $150. Its pricing page lists no checklists, no offline use and no way to build a quote. And the copyright line on that page still read 2023 in November 2026.

The other Launch27 alternatives, and what each leaves you with

If you are drawing up a list, these are the names you will see. Here is the short version of each, so you can cross them off faster.

MaidCentral

Fits: Large maid services with an office team that lives in payroll and KPI reports. Deep payroll and reporting.

What it leaves you with. It bills per completed job, starting at $450 a month, with a one-time onboarding fee and no free trial. Reviewers mention a learning curve and a data move that takes real work.

ZenMaid

Fits: Small residential teams that only need scheduling. Simple, with a long history in residential cleaning.

What it leaves you with. The bill grows with every cleaner you hire. Review requests, on-the-way texts, win-backs and even exporting your own data sit on the top plan, and texts are charged on top. Quotes are typed by hand.

Jobber

Fits: Companies that also do lawn care or handyman work. A polished all-trades tool for quoting and invoicing.

What it leaves you with. It is not built around the home. No bedroom or bathroom count, no per-home checklist, no place for a gate code, and no clean way to put two cleaners on one visit and pay both. It charges by the user, so every cleaner you hire raises the bill. Quotes are typed line by line.

Housecall Pro

Fits: Trades that sell one large job at a time, like plumbing or HVAC. Broad, with a phone system and a card reader.

What it leaves you with. You pay for a price book and a sales pipeline built for replacing a furnace. A cleaning company sells the same visit fifty times a month, so the pipeline sits empty. No homes, no per-home checklists, no real two-cleaner visits.

Maidily

Fits: One or two cleaners watching every dollar. Inexpensive and quick to learn.

What it leaves you with. Light by design. Once you run several crews and recurring plans, the parts it does not cover move into a spreadsheet and your phone. Thin crew app, little automation, nothing to tell you which cleaner causes the redos.

BookingKoala

Fits: Companies that grow mainly through an online booking form. Strong booking forms.

What it leaves you with. Every plan caps your providers: 5, then 15, then 50. The front door is the product and the back of the house is thin, so what happens on the day, the checklist, the photos, the second cleaner, is where you feel it.

What we say about each product is based on its own public pages and, for some, our own trial accounts, as of November 14, 2026. Products change, so check current pricing and features with the vendor. If something here is out of date or wrong, write to sales@purvago.com and we will correct it. Every product named is a trademark of its owner and PurVago is not affiliated with any of them.
