What Launch27 costs, what it does better, when to stay, and what moves if you go.
Launch27's cheapest plan that does the core job is $75/month — $900 a year, $2,700 over 3 years at today's price. Nexa is $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, tasks and accounting in one suite, so it costs less than Launch27 after 4 months. What Nexa is not: software someone hosts for you with a support desk, and it does not do payroll. If Launch27's strengths below are why you pay for it, stay.

These import into Nexa by file: clients and leads (CSV); expenses (CSV); bank and card transactions (CSV, OFX, QFX, QBO); personal contacts (CSV or vCard (.vcf) — the exports from Google Contacts, Outlook and iCloud); calendar events (.ics — the export from Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, Calendly and most booking tools). Client addresses go in the Notes column for now. You re-enter once: services and price list, open invoices, upcoming jobs and recurring work, open tasks. Past invoices and job history stay in Launch27's export as your record.
Every import, with templates: Bring your data. Keep Launch27 running until Nexa checks out.
The same comparison worked through for specific trades, with a job example and the numbers for each:
At $75/month — the cheapest Launch27 plan that does the core job, per Launch27's pricing page in September 2026 — it is $900 a year and $2,700 over 3 years at today's price. Nexa is $279 once.
Launch27's strengths above — built specifically for maid and cleaning services and online booking that quotes by bedrooms, hours or square feet — are the reason you pay for it. Nexa does not match Launch27 there. Your team is large enough that Launch27's plans for bigger teams buy you more than owning the software outright. You want software someone else hosts, with a support desk and a roadmap you can ask for features on. Nexa is software you own and run yourself. You run payroll inside the same tool. Nexa does not do payroll — keep a payroll service.
Partly. Your client list (CSV), expenses (CSV), bank and card history (CSV, OFX, QFX, QBO), contacts and calendar (.ics) import by file. Invoices, jobs and services do not — re-enter the open ones and keep Launch27's export as your record.
No payroll. Keep a payroll service alongside it. It is not hosted for you: your data lives on your device. Syncing across devices is optional Cloud Sync, $4.99/month. Invoices, jobs and your services list do not import. Clients, expenses, bank history, contacts and calendar do; the rest you re-enter once. No vendor support desk or roadmap to lobby — you buy it once and own it.
