Why This Matters for Electricians
Most of my work is residential service calls and small projects: a dead circuit, a breaker that keeps tripping, adding outlets in a kitchen remodel, a panel upgrade, an EV charger in the garage. Troubleshooting is the real skill; I'm testing circuits, tracing where a fault actually is, and finding the loose connection or the overloaded circuit behind the symptom. Safety is everything. I verify every circuit is dead before touching it, because assuming kills electricians. Anything beyond a simple repair usually needs a permit, which means paperwork before the job and an inspection after, and I plan my schedule around the inspector's availability. Panel upgrades and new circuits start with a load calculation to make sure the service can handle it. I carry the common breakers, devices and wire on the van, but special-order parts can push a job back a week. Quoting is careful work, because opening a wall in an old house can reveal knob-and-tube wiring nobody expected. I keep my licence current with continuing education and invoice every job before I leave the driveway when I can.
Electricians face unique challenges: Tracking time on complex rewiring jobs that span multiple days. Estimating accurately before seeing the panel. Managing permits and inspection scheduling. Getting paid on time — customers stall after the work is done. Keeping track of materials used across jobs. On top of all that, ServiceTitan charges $300/month ($3,600/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median electrician earns $60,240/year. Software at $3,600/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Multimeters (Fluke) is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

Why electricians leave the big platforms
jobber: Costs $169/month for the 'Grow' plan. That's $2,028/year just to send invoices and track jobs.
servicetitan: Requires an annual contract and costs more than your phone bill. Built for companies with dispatchers, not solo sparkys.
quickbooks: QuickBooks Online keeps raising prices. $55/month for 'Plus' and it still can't do field service scheduling.

FAQ
Is Nexa really a ServiceTitan replacement for electricians?
For solo operators and small teams (1-5), yes. Nexa includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting. ServiceTitan may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.
$279 seems like a lot.
It's $7.75/month over 3 years. ServiceTitan is $300/month — that's $10,800 over 3 years. Which is more? And if you'd rather split it, Nexa is also available as 3 payments of $99.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Nexa is $279 as a one-time payment, or 3 payments of $99 ($297 total). Either way it's a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring fees ever.
What if I don't like it?
30-day money-back guarantee. Full refund. If Nexa doesn't save you $500 in year one, you get every penny back.
Can I import my ServiceTitan data?
Export your data from ServiceTitan as CSV, import into Nexa in about 5 minutes.
