HiVis vs Connecteam for installation and service crews
Connecteam is an all-in-one employee app for many industries, sold as separate hubs: Operations (time clock, scheduling, forms), Communications and HR & Skills. HiVis is office software for small installation and service companies. The office or a foreman enters hours by job, and HiVis turns them into pay, job costs, stock and van records.
Every fact about Connecteam below links to Connecteam’s own pages and shows when we checked it.

- Your crew clocks in on iOS or Android phones with GPS, with geofences on the Advanced plan.
- Your crew speaks several languages: the mobile app comes in 18, including Spanish, Polish and Russian.
Choose HiVis if

- You want stock with minimum levels and van insurance, inspection and service reminders by date or mileage.
Price for a 10- and 25-person team
Both charge a flat monthly price for a range of users. HiVis prices the whole workspace; Connecteam prices each hub separately.
| Team size | HiVis | Connecteam Operations Hub |
|---|---|---|
| 10 people | Team plan: $49/month, or $39/month billed yearly | $0 on the Small Business Plan (up to 10 users), or Basic at $35/month billed monthly ($29/month billed yearly) |
| 25 people | Team plan: $49/month, or $39/month billed yearly | $0 on the Limited plan (fewer features), or Basic: $35/month billed monthly, or $29/month billed yearly, flat for the first 30 users |
These figures cover Connecteam’s Operations Hub only; Communications and HR & Skills are priced separately. Connecteam’s pricing page lists the Small Business Plan as free for up to 10 users, while its FAQ describes it for businesses with fewer than 10 employees. Its FAQ also offers the Limited plan, free for up to 30 users, which “includes the essentials of each product”; in the page’s comparison table, Limited doesn’t include GPS location stamps or payroll integration. In HiVis, crew members whose hours the office enters don’t need a login and don’t count as users, so a crew like that can fit a smaller plan.
