CompanyCam Review & Pricing: Plans, Costs and Verdict

CompanyCam pricing runs from $63 a month billed annually for a single user on Core to $249 a month on Scale, with Enterprise quoted for 50-plus users. Each extra user is $29 a month. What you get is the job photo app crews seem most willing to actually use, judging by public reviews: every photo timestamped, geotagged and filed to the right address without anyone thinking about it. Roofers use it for insurance documentation, remodelers for before-and-after records, everyone for "we did not crack that driveway" proof. Here is what each plan adds, what a real crew pays, and where CompanyCam stops being enough.

What CompanyCam is

CompanyCam is a photo and documentation app for contractors. A tech opens it, takes a picture, and the app stamps it with the date, time and GPS location and files it under the right job address. Everyone in the company can then see every photo on every job, in order, from the office or their own phone.

That sounds small. In practice, it fixes one of the oldest problems in the trades: the photos that prove what you did are scattered across six personal phones, mixed in with kids' soccer games, and gone when an employee quits.

CompanyCam has grown past plain photos. It now adds checklists, reports, client sharing, task assignment and, on the higher plans, agreements and subcontractor access. On Core, you can even collect payment on site and run a simple price book and invoicing. It is still not a CRM. There's no dispatch board, no full estimating, no job costing. Most shops run it alongside something like JobNimbus, AccuLynx or Jobber.

Photos, projects and the project timeline

Every photo and video gets a timestamp and location, and the app builds an automatic project history for each address. When a homeowner calls a year later about a leak, you open the project and scroll back to the day you installed the flashing.

Crews can tag photos, add notes and mark them up with arrows or text. The app works offline and syncs when signal comes back, which matters on rural jobs and in basements.

For an owner, the live feed is the quiet win. You can see that the tear-off on the Miller job started at 7:40 and the dumpster is in the driveway, without calling the foreman.

Checklists, reports and insurance documentation

Reports are what pay for CompanyCam in roofing. You pick photos from a project, add captions, and send a branded PDF or link to an adjuster, homeowner or GC. A damage report that used to take an hour of dragging pictures into a Word doc takes a few minutes.

Checklists arrive on the Crew plan. You can standardize what every crew shoots on every job: front elevation, each roof slope, damaged areas, decking after tear-off, ice and water shield, flashing details, final cleanup. For remodelers, the same tool covers pre-drywall photos of plumbing and wiring, which you'll want when someone needs to cut into a wall later.

Crew also auto-generates job reports. Scale advertises unlimited templates and unlimited auto-generated reports, which suggests Crew has limits. Ask what they are if reports are your main use.

Sharing with clients and subs

Core lets you send clients live job updates. Crew adds custom client access, so a homeowner or property manager can see a project's photos without you forwarding anything. Scale adds subcontractor access controls, so your electrician can upload rough-in photos to your project without seeing every other job you run.

Scale also lists sending, signing and storing agreements, measuring rooms without leaving the camera, and auto-translating team communication. That last one matters for crews where the foreman and the office don't share a first language.

The mobile app

The app is the product, and it's the reason crews actually use CompanyCam. It opens to the camera, figures out the job from your location, and gets out of the way. Owners commonly say that's the difference between CompanyCam and the photo tab inside their CRM: the CRM has the feature, but the crew doesn't bother. CompanyCam is on iOS and Android.

CompanyCam pricing in plain terms

Here's the lineup as shown on CompanyCam's pricing page as of October 2026. All prices are per month, billed annually.

Plan	Price	Users included	Best for
Core	$63/mo	1 (2-user limit)	Solo owner or owner plus one
Crew	$119/mo	3	Small crews that need checklists and reports
Scale	$249/mo	3	Shops with subs, many templates or bilingual crews
Enterprise	Quote	50+	Multi-location companies

Additional users are $29 a month each.

Monthly versus annual. CompanyCam says annual billing saves 20%. Paid month to month, Core is $79, Crew is $149 and Scale is $299, and extra users cost $34 instead of $29 (rechecked on CompanyCam's pricing page in November 2026). There's a 14-day free trial, and CompanyCam says it doesn't need a credit card.

Core: $63/mo billed annually

Core includes 1 user and allows a second (that one costs $29/mo). You get timestamped photos and videos, the automatic project history, photo reports, live job updates for clients, offline sync, a personalized price book and invoicing, and on-site payment collection for US companies.

What's missing: checklists, the live job map, task assignment, custom client access and auto-generated reports. For a solo roofer documenting claims, Core covers the job. For anyone managing other people's photos, it gets thin fast.

Crew: $119/mo billed annually

Crew includes 3 users and adds the management layer: real-time job tracking, standard checklists across teams, auto-generated job reports, task assignment, a multi-job view, a live job map, custom client access and proposals built from voice notes and photos.

This is the plan most 3-to-10 person shops end up on. The checklists alone justify the jump from Core if you've ever had a crew forget to shoot the decking before the new roof went on.

Scale: $249/mo billed annually

Scale also includes 3 users, which surprises people. You're paying for features, not seats: unlimited templates and auto-generated reports, a multi-location view, subcontractor access control, in-camera room measurement, agreements you can send and sign, and auto-translated team communication.

Buy Scale if subs need to upload into your projects or you run more than one location. Otherwise Crew is the better value.

Enterprise

For 50-plus users. CompanyCam lists single sign-on, a multi-location hub, white-glove implementation, quarterly business reviews and a dedicated success manager. Quote only.

What a real crew pays

Shop	Plan	Monthly	Yearly
Solo (1 user)	Core	$63	$756
Owner plus helper (2 users)	Core + 1 user	$92	$1,104
5 users	Crew + 2 users	$177	$2,124
15 users	Crew + 12 users	$467	$5,604
15 users	Scale + 12 users	$597	$7,164

These use the plan-card prices, annual billing and $29 per added user.

The per-user charge is the number to watch. A 15-person roofing company that gives a login to every installer pays more for users than for the plan. Most shops don't need that. Give logins to crew leads, project managers, salespeople and the office, and let the lead shoot for the crew. That usually brings a 15-person company to 6 or 8 users.

The Marketing Suite add-on

CompanyCam sells a Marketing Suite with AI social media posts, review requests and management, Google Business Profile sync, a website gallery and a website map. The pricing page lists it at $79/mo billed annually or $99/mo billed monthly, sold through sales. If you already pay for a review tool or your website person handles your gallery, skip it.

Is it worth paying for next to your CRM

This is the real question for most buyers, because JobNimbus, AccuLynx, Buildertrend and most field service tools already store photos. The answer comes down to whether your crews use the photo feature you already have.

Do a quick check before you buy. Open your CRM and pull up the last ten finished jobs. Count how many have a full set of photos: before, during, after, and the details an adjuster or inspector would ask for. If eight or more do, you don't need CompanyCam. If it's three, the problem is adoption, and adoption is the thing CompanyCam is best at.

Then put a dollar figure on a missing photo. For a roofer, one denied supplement line for decking replacement or drip edge can be several hundred dollars. For a remodeler, one "you damaged my hardwood" claim without a before photo can wipe out the profit on a bathroom. At $177 a month for a 5-user Crew setup, it takes one saved claim every few months to break even.

Setting it up so crews actually use it

CompanyCam is easy, but a little structure up front makes the photos far more useful.

1. Write a photo standard per job type. For a reroof: all four elevations, every slope before tear-off, damaged areas close up, decking after tear-off, underlayment, flashing and penetrations, ridge, cleanup and magnet sweep. Turn it into a checklist on Crew.
2. Decide who gets a login. Crew leads, PMs, sales and office. Not every laborer, unless you want to pay $29 a head.
3. Connect your CRM on day one if CompanyCam integrates with it, so projects come over automatically instead of being typed in twice.
4. Check the feed for the first two weeks. A quick daily scroll by the owner tells crews the photos get looked at. That's what makes the habit stick.
5. Build one report template for adjusters and one for homeowners. Different audiences want different photos.

Where it falls short

It's not a job management system. Users commonly report this as the main limitation, and it's fair. No dispatch, no real estimating, no job costing, no full accounting. You'll need a CRM or field service tool too, and you'll want to check the two connect. Knowify, for one, lists a CompanyCam integration on its pricing page.

Per-user costs add up. $29 a user is fine for three extra logins and painful for twelve.

Pricing clarity. Monthly prices weren't readable on the page, and the comparison table and plan cards didn't agree on Crew and Scale. Neither is a dealbreaker. Both mean you should confirm before you sign an annual term.

Overlap with your CRM. If your CRM's photo feature already gets used, CompanyCam is a nice-to-have, not a need.

Who should look elsewhere

CompanyCam is best for roofers, exterior contractors and remodelers who live and die by documentation. For remodelers in particular, it pairs well with the project tools on our list of software for remodeling businesses.

Skip it, or wait, if:

• You need one system for everything. A roofing CRM like JobNimbus or AccuLynx, or a project tool like Buildertrend, includes photo storage. It's less pleasant, but it's one bill.
• You're a solo owner with light documentation needs. A shared album and good habits cost nothing.
• Your crew is large and every member needs a login. Do the per-user math first. Roofr, for example, has no per-seat fees on any plan, though it is built around measurements and proposals rather than photo documentation.
